‘Ma, get up!’ Children live stream horrifying video of parents ODed on heroin2

Two gaunt figures slump over a sofa, eyes rolled back in their heads – a heroin overdose captured live on video by a couple’s own children. The children shout, ‘Ma, get up!’ at the woman – but she’s incapable of movement. The horrifying video – which was supposedly captured by the couple’s own children – has been widely shared on Facebook live. ‘Man, you cannot be like this around your kids, man,’ the son shouts – before adding, ‘Say cheese. We got you n****s on tape.’ The film – seemingly shot in the southern U.S. is the latest horrifying evidence of the heroin epidemic sweeping America. Abuse of prescription opiate painkillers such as Oxycontin has been a huge problem in America – and thought to be fuelling a boom in heroin abuse in the country. | Metro News via IFTTT
