Franklin County Coroner's Office working to keep up with increase in overdose deaths
by Jessi Starkey
Franklin County Coroner Dr. Anahi Ortiz said statistics show overdoses are up 10% compared to 2018. She said the increase is due to Fentanyl being mixed in other drugs, and if the current overdose rate keeps up, or gets worse, they may have to bring in a temporary morgue for storage of bodies.
