Jamal Gamal, a California man, has been charged with the distribution of fentanyl resulting in the death of 28-year-old Collin Walker in Denver. Walker was found unresponsive on November 19, 2023, with two unlabeled medicine bottles containing suspected fentanyl and Xanax pills.

Denver District Attorney Beth McCann emphasized the need for accountability in the face of the ongoing fentanyl crisis, which has claimed hundreds of lives in the region. The case highlights the alarming trend of online drug sales and the pervasive impact of fentanyl in communities.
