A big shoutout to The Kratom Guy Show for drawing my attention to this through Twitter posts: Recently, parents of a 23 year old who died from mitragynine intoxication last December have filed a wrongful death lawsuit against about a dozen people, companies and organizations connected to the manufacturing, marketing and sale of kratom. A Georgia Bureau of Investigation autopsy found that Ethan Pope died from mitragynine intoxication and had no alcohol or illegal drugs in his system. Today, I talk about this case and touch on an aspect that I think needs a whole lot more attention, and fast.
