Perez was given a nickname. Because she packaged fentanyl into a small candy-like rapper, often staining the medicine in vivid colors and disguised it.
Clinical tests included drugs that contained two more dangerous substances than fentanyl: xylazine and parafluorofentanyl.
Detectives discover that Perez is waiting for drugs to clients outside her residence. Perez tried to hide private local drugs when law enforcement received a House search warrant, according to the sheriff’s office.
