Mafia credited with keeping fentanyl out of Italy

Original: Just read a news article that literally states that the reason there is no fentanyl crisis in Italy is because the mafia

A widely shared post cites a news article arguing that Italy has avoided the fentanyl crisis gripping the United States because the mafia blocks the drug, deeming it bad for business and a threat to the order it enforces. The claim has sparked discussion about whether organised crime's business logic, not law enforcement, is protecting the country from the synthetic opioid.

Why now: The idea that organised crime acts as an accidental safeguard against fentanyl is striking and counterintuitive, drawing attention and debate.
