@Kris that may be True - but what is that old saying - keep doing the same thing but expecting different results.. Maybe it's time for a real change Especially since young people are dropping deceased from (1) pill; unlike decades ago when it was for what they called fun! Well, it's russian roulette now buying a "mystery pill" off of the streets! So, a Serious Conversation Is definitely Needed with ones Child now - Right Now! #Blessings to All Families from this awful Tragedy....
So sorry for him and his family ! OXYCODON and fentanyl is a greater killer ! Mind my words ….. sinds a short time OXYCODON and fentanyl are mixed ! 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵that is the reason that they on a overdose ! 😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪
I had a horrific childhhod. Not worth giving details. I never wanted to do drugs. Early on I realized that if I died from an overdose, not one of my family members would care. I had to look out for myself. I was all I had.
I'm sorry that happened to you. I had a really rough childhood also..several different types of abuse from my narcissist father. I did get into drugs as a teenager, looking back I was definitely self medicating that trauma away The thing is, I had to grow up to understand that the drugs do nothing to help the situation. Those problems were still waiting for me when the high was gone. It's sad that so many of these kids that are no longer here weren't allowed to live through those mistakes and grow up and learn those important lessons. These kids needed counseling and therapy, the drugs don't love you
This is horrible to hear, we can't choose family but friends are different and if making friends is difficult ( I don't have any ) I'm not lonely because I have a dog !@@❤ best friend forever 💕 and if you can't own a Pet, voluntarios at sheltets are always welcome xx to walk ,talk, read to the little fellas that nobody wants, best thing u can do , for both of you Good luck xxxc
@lorrainedunlop5512 Thank you. We, my son, and I, have a dog, Cesaer, picture in my profile. He's been with us for 10 years. He was there when my husband, and son's father, passed 6 years ago. He died as a result of long term depression, and bpd. We, doggo included, miss him still, every passing day. Cesaer has been our rock, so to speak.
I am 1 year, 7 days sober. I went to rehab, then out patient for 12 weeks and I lived in sober living for 8 months before returning home. There is no shame in asking for help. There is no shame in rehab. Addiction doesn't care if you're rich, poor or well educated.
Congratulations!! I’m also a year as of May 7th! Best year of my life despite loosing my mom 2 weeks ago. She was old and sick but I was present for her daily and I’m so grateful for that. I pray you have continued success, God bless you and keep you!💜🙏💜
It’s amazing that the dealer was allowed to continue selling even after the detectives knew. He’ll probably never do a day in jail. He’s a serial killer allowed to run his business.
Why should they go to jail when the GOVERNMENT allowed the BIGGEST drug dealers (PHARM and THE SACKLER FAMILY) to walk free with their billions of wealth AND OxyContin is still being prescribed!!
@@DeathSpellXVI maybe you should respect this family’s passed loved one and not comment, I think his mom would appreciate it. You know it goes both ways so what’s your point
@@prettydalila Don't hate the game, hate the players. Without the players there is no game. People need money to feed their families. People choose to buy drugs, nobodies forcing them. Respect? Its just called honesty. Its sad and stuff but its crazy how people willingly taking drugs, and dying, get more coverage than some murder cases. Im 14 years old and would never take drugs, yet this girl did. If a 14 year old has more self control we have bigger problems.
I know this is no consolation, but great news just the same! To the family of Tucker, and to all the families that suffered at the hands of this poison...in Alabama yesterday 4-3-23 they seized 17,000 Fentanyl pills 37,000 dollars and the young lady was arrested and being charged! 🙏😊🌹 I know it's not much but it's progress. 💖🌹
@@audraarndt1824 That is great news! Thank you for sharing that. It seems we are finally starting to make progress. Sadly tho, how many more will have to die....It shouldn't even be crossing boarders. 💔🌹
@@losheroes6076 Maybe keep as evidence along with the money. Then, the drugs are destroyed in due course. Depending on the laws of the country, the money will be allocated.
My mom used before pregnant with me, while pregnant with me and after I was born. At 13 years old I fell asleep in the bed with my mom (we had no running water or electricity). I woke up next to my mom who had OD as I slept beside her. I sat in the bed next to her for over three hours not knowing what to do but also scared to tell anyone because I didn’t know where I would go. Luckily my dad had been trying to find me and he had gotten sober about 7 years prior. He stayed sober until he passed in 2021 with dance. Many don’t understand when I say this but my mom saved my life that day. I know I would not be where I am today had she lived. It breaks my heart to say that but it’s true. I’m a firm believer that everyone will get sober in their life time. It’ll either be on this either or when they pass away. PLEASE I BEG YOU…IF YOU SUFFER FROM ADDICTION PLEASE ASK FOR HELP. IT’S WORTH IT. YOU ARE WORTH IT.
It is. Years ago, my cousin was living with my husband and me. He told us he had used pretty much every drug, except heroin, and said he was never going to try heroin because it was so addictive. But he did use heroin eventually. He told us he had bought it from a dealer he had known for many years. The guy begged him not to start with heroin. He showed my cousin all the old track marks and scars from his own years as an IV drug user, between his toes, in his groin… he said you’re more likely to die from the addiction than recover from it. But my cousin said he would just go and find another dealer, so the guy sold to him. This is one of the happy endings, at least so far. It’s been 22 years. It took years in a state rehab facility, years of going to the clinic every day for methadone, but he is clean. Fentanyl wasn’t part of the picture then. An addict today might not have years to fight their addiction. We are not going to be able to arrest our way out of this. We need to figure out why people are still buying illegal drugs, knowing that fentanyl has created a kind of Russian Roulette, knowing how high the likelihood is that they could die from one dose.
Today I saw a billboard in Dallas and Immediately recognized Tucker’s face from this video. Thank you for sharing your story and educating everyone on Fentanyl poisoning.
This one made me cry in a really different way. The way you described him, I could swear I knew him too. I am so sorry for your loss, momma. 😣 Fentanyl poisoning took a brilliant, strong friend named Brock away from me 6 years ago. Rest in Peace Tucker and Brock. I am so gd sick of this poison taking such beautiful souls.
@@txaf-pi8qj I'm soo sorry for your loss. I also lost my son 6yrs ago to fentanyl and this could have been my story as well. My son became addicted over the summer and i found him deceased in our home on xmas eve morning. He also was " drug curious" like Tucker, a smart, inquisitive, kind and loving son. I still cry all the time just thinking about him and can't beleive this happened. As one mom to another, may you find some peace. sending lots of hugs and love your way. 💔
I wish teenagers and young adults who are struggling with addiction would watch these videos and see the pain that all these family members will feel for the rest of theirs lives. I hope they’ll realize that every parent would rather hear everything about their struggles rather than losing them forever. Share everything with your parents, kids. They love you and just want the best for you. Be careful out there, the world has changed, you can’t take any chances.
These videos should be shown in ALL schools, like we used to see MADD and cars total by drunk drivers! I’m 58 and still remember the impact. How about these poor moms, dads,sisters and brothers talk in schools 🏫 maybe instead of drag story time. Please Jesus we pray to you, the only 1 !!!!!!!!!!!
@@leanne_the_metal_girl addiction is extremely complex, you are right. There isn’t one magic cure, I am aware, but if we take many small steps we might get somewhere better. If kids at least start sharing more with people they trust, who knows, maybe that “small” thing could save them. Xx
@@barbaramcastromost kids think shit won't happen to them. Even some parents think it won't happen to their kids either. I noticed the majority of the kids shown on this channel look like they cone from upper class homes with parents with nice jobs, live in nice huge homes have good jobs & everyone in the home drives nice new vehicles.
That should tell you how strong this addiction is. He knew that those exact pills from that exact kid had fentanyl in them and that people were dying from them and he almost died twice from them. But, he called that same kid to get those same pills and took that chance.
@@JesusGodHolySpirit3 Addiction is very powerful. It's possible to be very smart and still lose out to it. Those of us who aren't addicted to substances have no real way of knowing how powerful the call can be.
@@JesusGodHolySpirit3 how cruel. If addiction had anything to do with logic or intelligence or reasoning, there would be no addiction. That’s why it’s called addiction because it rules over logic, intelligence, and reasoning.
@@JesusGodHolySpirit3 you fancy yourself religious yet here you are mocking a dead boy in the comments of his own mother's video. If there really are devils surely you are one of them. You, your hypocrisy, and your mean spiritedness are exactly what is driving the younger generations away from religion.
@@JesusGodHolySpirit3 It didn’t matter how bright he was - the addiction to this poisonous drug was stronger. Can’t you understand, they’re flooding the streets with this poison which is deliberately killing our young..
I will never be able to understand how someone can sell drugs that they know will kill someone. I can’t fathom the heart that could do that. I feel so much compassion for this family and all the others that are in these videos. There really needs to be stricter laws regarding the sale of fentanyl.
They seem like such a beautiful, cool family. They literally did their best. Even Tucker knew what was going on with the pills was crazy, and dangerous. But the addiction had too much of a hold on him. I’m so sorry for their loss 💔
I felt that “peace” when my close cousin Matthew passed away a few minutes after I got the call that he had passed at 21. I felt that for just about two or even five minutes and then all turned to despair and pain for the next 3-4 years. Took me along time to accept his death. He was an amazing person who cared about family too. He was a brand new father too, moving up with a good new job. Talk to your kids about this and about death. Kids don’t know things like this could happen to them. Truly
Very horrifying. So Tucker was very aware about how powerful and deadly the drug is, but because how strong the fentanyl is he still relapsed regardless.
@@GeorgeFitness-yo8bl duh u don't live in the real world then george! Kids experiment! When I was a teenager it was ecstasy. We all heard the stories of how it could kill but when ur young u think your invincible. You couldn't pay me today to take it but when ur young it's so different!
I am so sorry. May God Bless you. As I have mentioned to alot of parents, my stepson Sully passed away July 22nd 2019. He THOUGHT he was taking a xanax. Turned out to be xanax and fentanyl. I am on a mission myself TRYING to educate people in my area but the stigma is so prevalent. Not my kid. I repost these videos non stop. Sully is one of probably 20 people I personally know who have died from fentanyl poisoning. It's so frustrating.
I was in shock when I read that alone you know about 20 people who passed away from this! How can this be possible, I don’t understand how this can happen in your country. I live in Germany and I watched a documentary about why fentanyl doesn’t has an impact here in Europe like it has in the US. It’s so terrible! I can’t even imagine the pain loosing my child. My deep condolences to all who experience this.
@@jisue3517 yes, I do know at least that many. That's not even counting friends of friends. I am 50 and a bartender so it could be due to the fact that I know and work with alot of younger people. I also lost my niece and my husband lost his older sister and a niece. Not to mention friends.
Thanks for being brave enough to share your loss. I, too have a 19 yr old son who is 6’4” and my heart was breaking just listening to your son’s story. I am truly sorry for what you & your family are going through. Fentanyl is the devil- it really is.
14:32 - When she said, “My baby’s gone.” Gosh… that just broke my heart into a million pieces. It’s every mother’s worst nightmare, and that nightmare came true for her on that day. It’s agonizing, and I’m so incredibly sorry!
These stories are absolutely heartbreaking. Such beautiful young people with a beautiful futures ahead. There is no way you can’t be touched by this. Just so young, they don’t think. Their brains are still so young. I just don’t know what we are going to do to stop this. 😢😢
As a parent to a 7 year old autistic son and a 13 year old daughter I have heard of fentanyl but never thought to talk to my daughter about it. I will make it my priority to talk with my kids everyday about the importance of not doing drugs and not following the crowd. I will make sure my daughter watch these stories ❤
I really don't think people will ever fully appreciate how traumatic it is to find someone dead. Especially when they mean something to you personally. I hate that the roommate was forced into that position, but I am even more thankful that it wasn't his immediate family, mom, dad, or siblings.
My daughter woke up to her best friend dead next to her, she had 8 times the lethal limit of Fentanyl in her system. My daughter had to do CPR on her until the ambulance arrived. Sadly she didn’t make it. On life lost, another changed forever. No amount of therapy will ever erase that moment from my daughters mind.
@@josephinevera9966 It's incredibly painful for a mother to see one of her children hurt. I found someone close to me who died in her sleep. She was not my mom, but she was the woman I called mom. It was horrible, and it's impossible to forget. She had just been taking a nap, in the middle of the day bc she didn't sleep well the previous night. She was on her boyfriend's couch in his living room, and he and his teen son were right there watching TV. I listen to other people's stories and something that everyone seems to do, is blame themselves by wishing they had been there to check on their deceased loved one. That whole horrible, "What if?" In reality however, they could have still been there, and not have even known. That's exactly what happened with mom. She died from a heart condition tho, it wasn't an OD. The only reason that I found her is bc his son came next door to my apartment. He mentioned mom was at his place taking a nap. I made a joke! I asked him if he was coming to my apartment to escape her loud snoring. (It was so so so very loud lol) He laughed, and responded with, "No, lol she's not snoring." That's when I said, "Wow! Really? Have you checked to see if she's dead?" Then I immediately, and suddenly, felt a sense of alarm. So I went to check in on her, she did have a history of strokes. Never told any of the family that she also had a bad heart. She never thought of herself, she was always putting others comfort ahead of her own, she didn't want to worry us. So I checked, and my entire world was forever changed. It was my husband's mom, my mom. He was SHATTERED! The ONLY thing worse than finding her and seeing her like that, and him seeing her like that, (besides her actually dying of course,) was that I had to tell Mamaw that her first born daughter was dead at the age of 43. (Only Mamaw I ever known too.) Besides the fact that I love both of those women immensely, I was literally telling a mother that her child was dead. I could actually hear the life drain from her voice, and it never returned. THAT was so bad, and gut wrenching. THAT haunts me, along with everything else about that day.
My sweet autistic 10 yo great nephew was sleeping with his Mom (42 yo) when she had a cardiac arrhythmia and quickly passed. This poor boy has that memory burned into his psyche.
@@saraw8503 I'm really very sorry for your loss, and the pain of watching someone you want to love and protect grieving. I have a couple cousins that one has autism, and the other has mental retardation. So I have an enormous soft spot in my heart for anyone who suffers from those very special mental hardships.
I know that a lot of people always blame the parent’s, it’s not always the parent’s fault. My parent’s were amazing and I’m a recovering addict. My love, my prayers and my deepest condolences go out to Tucker’s loving dear family and his friends. ❤️ 🙏 😇
Thank you for saying that. It's true. Bottom line honestly..we all choose food, drink, dope, working out, whatever it is..we make the choices and nobody forces us.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I remember the last story I just watched, Cameron was the teen who passed from the same thing, and his mom was saying how she's really good friends with Tucker's mom.😢
@@TexasPictures thank you for taking a second to comment. This whole fentanyl crisis has turned people into a modern day serial killer in every state across the map! The drug is their “weapon of choice”. 🙁
Omg that’s immediately what I thought when she mentioned the dealer posting at his funeral 😢💔 So tragic but I’m glad both mommas have each other to lean on now to comfort one another during those horrible times. I pray for their healing & strength ❤️🩹🙏🏽✨
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful son’s story. My ex-husband (high school sweethearts…soul mates, but he fell into drug addiction sadly) died from Fentanyl poisoning 2 years ago. Telling our 10 year old twin boys that their dad was gone was the worst thing I’ve ever had to do. I pray our country and world start educating kids more on the risk of ANY drug having this in it. We need to save our babies from this poison. I’ll be sending prayers of peace to you and your beautiful family. 🤍🤍🤍
Wow, you are a strong woman to be able to talk about your sons passing, may God Bless you and your family. I lost my 26 year old son February 25,2023, he too was bright, interested in psychedelics was a very hard worker with a great work ethic, good at everything he did, meth got him in the end, the drugs out there are designed to kill, not to get high anymore, this is the devil in action, I truly believe a spiritual battle. I wish I did more, the pain of losing a child is unimaginable and no parent should have to endure pain like this,
That absolutely is the most beautiful portrait I have EVER, EVER SEEN. I want one of my latek husband but I'm so scared that it won't look like him. You can see EVERY PART of his. That is the most beautiful portrait I have seen. He looks like an angel as he should
Every person who has an addiction will struggle with shame and guilty. We hide and suffer in silence. Its a hard way to live and nobody can save us from ourselves. RIP Tucker. You were loved! Peace to family.
As a kid you don’t think it’s going to happen to you. You don’t think you’ll become addicted. The first hit I took I knew I was done. Something told me that. I battled it for 20 years, and I thank God daily for helping me get sober. I had to learn to love myself in order to stop hurting myself.
As a mom this hurts me to my core. Her son was such a family person he loved everyone. I hope they can get this drug off the street soon. Praying for this family
Oh mama my heart breaks for you! I am so very deeply sorry for your loss! Thank you very much for sharing your story and what you shared! You are spot on in your explanation! Keep sharing!
We lost our youngest son at the age of 21 years old in 2017 to an accidental death 😪😪🙏loosing a child is the worst pain a parent can feel still and always will hurt 😞 I’m so sorry for your loss
May God bless the Roe and Turner families. I can tell how great a child Tucker was because clearly his mom is a hero--as is his sister, for going through the emotional toil it must've taken on you both to do this video. Stefanie, you articulated perfectly what fentanyl is. I'll no longer refer to it as a drug--but as a poison, as you said. Two of my best friends lost their sons to fentanyl poisonings. I'm writing your names down on my prayer list, and Tucker Roe's name will be forever on my heart (as will you and your family). I am so, so sorry. There are no words.
What a lovely, neat, great kid! What a wonderful family! I’m so sorry you are all going through this. I know you miss him terribly. Thoughts and prayers for all of you.🌻
Wow sounds like a wonderful young man and you can tell he was really, really trying to stay away from fentanyl but sadly he didn't make it😔💔💔,my condolences and prayers go out to Tucker's family and may he rest in peace 🙏🏽🕊️💙
I look for these stories. They're so necessary. Heartbreaking, but necessary. My 17 yr old niece has never done drugs of any kind, & I try to tell her about these so she doesn't ever. I'm so sorry to these families losing these amazing family members. The world is missing out on these people.. all because of Fentanyl. 😢
From someone that was addicted to pills myself I have so much empathy for these families because I truly understand and it is very very hard. I pray everyone affected god gives you’ll peace
I share the stories with my son while driving in the car. I have his full attention then. He is 13 n home schooled. Thank you for sharing the stories. I didn’t know so many don’t know. I watch a lot of crime stories n why I hear about it so much.
Great idea. Of course, I hope you’re not watching while you’re driving. 😳We also have a documentary we created that’s on our channel called. “sidetracked“. That one is about distracted driving. 😉 but seriously, thank you for watching and sharing.
Alot of these are hard to watch but this one....soul crushing.... My heart breaks for Tucker and his beautiful family. I think the tattoo portrait of him is gorgeous. My heart goes out to her and her family....damn this was a tough one to watch....
I went to hike in the US in 2017 and was shocked at the casualness about things like hallucinogenics like marijuana, mushrooms and even ayahuasca. It was as “normal” as drinking coffee to many. A guy I met on the trail hiked with broken toe and didn’t even realized they were broken because he was high all the time. It was a big culture shock for me coming from a place where any kind of drugs / hallucinogenic are illegal and punishable up to death. I often wondered where is the line between safe and danger. It’s like alcohol…our body response is different every day. Some days, 1 glass is enough to knock me out and some days, I can walk straight even after 3 glasses. I think it’s impossible to tell how the body will react. To see so many young lives been taken this way is beyond sad and many happened quite innocently too. I wonder if the danger is the casualness about getting high or is it fentanyl cos when you abolish fentanyl, something else and possibly more deadly will be created cos as long as there is demand, there will always be supply whether it’s called this or that. Just wondering…
My gosh - I hope his sister also gets support. She seems fragile uniquely; traumatized in a way where it isn’t expressed yet. Prayers to his mom and family.
What a beautiful family. Mom, you are so beautiful on the inside and out. Tucker was very fortunate to have a loving mom such as yourself. I pray that your entire family, remembers Tucker in happier times. God will grant you the peace and strength you need to get through this 🕊
This video confused me. Yes, the loss is tragic, but the mother's comment indicates that he was chasing another fentanyl high. This seemed to go beyond the naive kid story that had never heard of fentanyl. "Some drugs are ok but heroin is bad" is not the message that parents should be sending. I hope that the mother is receiving counseling to better deal with her loss.
I’m very sorry for your loss!! It breaks my heart every time I hear of a senseless loss of someone who is so young! God have mercy on your family and bring you peace and comfort. ❤️😢
I have taken to heart the warning that my kids are in the hardest places when they are the most soft and gentle and loving. It fits for my kids too and I don't always catch it. I knew when I saw Tucker's name, because I saw the last video, and I just started crying... You are all so courageous in sharing with us.❤ Thank you. And thank you Texas Documentaries! We're passing on the word. This can be a movement, nonpartisan, one pill can kill. Let's just start there. ❤
...the photo of your family on the beach is priceless and speaks volumes... whoever took it, you captured in an instant a feeling ..i did the same when my brother & his new wife had gotten into the car after their wedding :•)
I’m so very sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing Tucker’s story - clearly he was an amazing young man. May sharing your pain help to save the lives of others so that no mother and no other family members and friends have to experience this type of loss ever again. 🌺
Dear Ms Roe. First my sincere condolences for your horrific loss. Second, bless you for your strength and courage in sharing your sad experience. May your telling of your grief and sadness be helpful to parents like you and kids like Tucker. Many would cocoon with their grief and not share as you so courageously have done. Just the telling was heart-wrenching for you and seeing your pain as did so many others brought tears to my eyes and theirs too I’m sure. Be proud that you have done a great service to others in spite of the pain of sharing.
My heart breaks for you and all of us who have lost someone including myself to this disease! I’m so very sorry for your monumental us of your beautiful boy, brother, nephew, and friend💔😢🙏
Constantly, I'm seeing parents state their deceased child thought they were buying Percocet! As a Nurse and a parent, this is so disturbing to me! Why are we not doing something to figure out why kids need the drug in the first place!!??

@@losheroes6076 Maybe keep as evidence along with the money. Then, the drugs are destroyed in due course. Depending on the laws of the country, the money will be allocated.
My mom used before pregnant with me, while pregnant with me and after I was born. At 13 years old I fell asleep in the bed with my mom (we had no running water or electricity). I woke up next to my mom who had OD as I slept beside her. I sat in the bed next to her for over three hours not knowing what to do but also scared to tell anyone because I didn’t know where I would go. Luckily my dad had been trying to find me and he had gotten sober about 7 years prior. He stayed sober until he passed in 2021 with dance. Many don’t understand when I say this but my mom saved my life that day. I know I would not be where I am today had she lived. It breaks my heart to say that but it’s true. I’m a firm believer that everyone will get sober in their life time. It’ll either be on this either or when they pass away. PLEASE I BEG YOU…IF YOU SUFFER FROM ADDICTION PLEASE ASK FOR HELP. IT’S WORTH IT. YOU ARE WORTH IT.
I wish you the best, you deserve the best! 🖤
This is crazy he contacted the same dealer with the same pills that killed his friends….shows you how strong addiction is…😢
The delusion of youthful invincibility, created by a second removed from death.
@@mjanny6330I love this response.
Yup that doesn't make sense
It is. Years ago, my cousin was living with my husband and me. He told us he had used pretty much every drug, except heroin, and said he was never going to try heroin because it was so addictive. But he did use heroin eventually. He told us he had bought it from a dealer he had known for many years. The guy begged him not to start with heroin. He showed my cousin all the old track marks and scars from his own years as an IV drug user, between his toes, in his groin… he said you’re more likely to die from the addiction than recover from it. But my cousin said he would just go and find another dealer, so the guy sold to him. This is one of the happy endings, at least so far. It’s been 22 years. It took years in a state rehab facility, years of going to the clinic every day for methadone, but he is clean. Fentanyl wasn’t part of the picture then. An addict today might not have years to fight their addiction. We are not going to be able to arrest our way out of this. We need to figure out why people are still buying illegal drugs, knowing that fentanyl has created a kind of Russian Roulette, knowing how high the likelihood is that they could die from one dose.
What a mom. She has a neckless with his name around her neck and a tattoo of his face on her arm.
Today I saw a billboard in Dallas and Immediately recognized Tucker’s face from this video. Thank you for sharing your story and educating everyone on Fentanyl poisoning.
We see a lot of similar billboards in Houston. All the faces on the billboards we see are stories that are part of our series.
@TexasPictures i think ive seen one here!
This one made me cry in a really different way. The way you described him, I could swear I knew him too. I am so sorry for your loss, momma. 😣 Fentanyl poisoning took a brilliant, strong friend named Brock away from me 6 years ago. Rest in Peace Tucker and Brock. I am so gd sick of this poison taking such beautiful souls.
Me, too, on all points. I’m so sorry for the loss of your friend.
😢
Praying for you and your family
Thank you for your comment, and kindness! We miss our boy! ❤
@@txaf-pi8qj I'm soo sorry for your loss. I also lost my son 6yrs ago to fentanyl and this could have been my story as well. My son became addicted over the summer and i found him deceased in our home on xmas eve morning. He also was " drug curious" like Tucker, a smart, inquisitive, kind and loving son. I still cry all the time just thinking about him and can't beleive this happened. As one mom to another, may you find some peace. sending lots of hugs and love your way. 💔
I wish teenagers and young adults who are struggling with addiction would watch these videos and see the pain that all these family members will feel for the rest of theirs lives. I hope they’ll realize that every parent would rather hear everything about their struggles rather than losing them forever. Share everything with your parents, kids. They love you and just want the best for you. Be careful out there, the world has changed, you can’t take any chances.
These videos should be shown in ALL schools, like we used to see MADD and cars total by drunk drivers! I’m 58 and still remember the impact. How about these poor moms, dads,sisters and brothers talk in schools 🏫 maybe instead of drag story time. Please Jesus we pray to you, the only 1 !!!!!!!!!!!
They do watch. That’s not how addiction works.
@@leanne_the_metal_girl addiction is extremely complex, you are right. There isn’t one magic cure, I am aware, but if we take many small steps we might get somewhere better. If kids at least start sharing more with people they trust, who knows, maybe that “small” thing could save them.
Xx
It can't hurt. But people already know that addiction breaks hearts.
@@barbaramcastromost kids think shit won't happen to them. Even some parents think it won't happen to their kids either. I noticed the majority of the kids shown on this channel look like they cone from upper class homes with parents with nice jobs, live in nice huge homes have good jobs & everyone in the home drives nice new vehicles.
That should tell you how strong this addiction is. He knew that those exact pills from that exact kid had fentanyl in them and that people were dying from them and he almost died twice from them. But, he called that same kid to get those same pills and took that chance.
@@JesusGodHolySpirit3 Addiction is very powerful. It's possible to be very smart and still lose out to it. Those of us who aren't addicted to substances have no real way of knowing how powerful the call can be.
@@JesusGodHolySpirit3 how cruel. If addiction had anything to do with logic or intelligence or reasoning, there would be no addiction. That’s why it’s called addiction because it rules over logic, intelligence, and reasoning.
@@JesusGodHolySpirit3 you fancy yourself religious yet here you are mocking a dead boy in the comments of his own mother's video. If there really are devils surely you are one of them. You, your hypocrisy, and your mean spiritedness are exactly what is driving the younger generations away from religion.
@@JesusGodHolySpirit3 It didn’t matter how bright he was - the addiction to this poisonous drug was stronger. Can’t you understand, they’re flooding the streets with this poison which is deliberately killing our young..
Right. Powerful.
I will never be able to understand how someone can sell drugs that they know will kill someone. I can’t fathom the heart that could do that. I feel so much compassion for this family and all the others that are in these videos. There really needs to be stricter laws regarding the sale of fentanyl.
There is no pain worse than loosing your child. Sorry for your loss.
So true I'm glad to never be a father because of this.
Loosing a mother and losing a child is the absolute worst thing to happen to someone
*losing
They seem like such a beautiful, cool family. They literally did their best. Even Tucker knew what was going on with the pills was crazy, and dangerous. But the addiction had too much of a hold on him. I’m so sorry for their loss 💔
So very sorry. We're losing two generations to this epidemic.
I felt that “peace” when my close cousin Matthew passed away a few minutes after I got the call that he had passed at 21. I felt that for just about two or even five minutes and then all turned to despair and pain for the next 3-4 years. Took me along time to accept his death. He was an amazing person who cared about family too. He was a brand new father too, moving up with a good new job. Talk to your kids about this and about death. Kids don’t know things like this could happen to them. Truly
"...I think my Momma heart felt Tucker's peace...." what a strong Momma. R.I.P. to Tucker. These stories are powerful and accomplishing something.
Very horrifying. So Tucker was very aware about how powerful and deadly the drug is, but because how strong the fentanyl is he still relapsed regardless.
Typical druggie
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😏😏
I'm glad this wasn't around in the 70"s when I was young and experimenting with drugs. Prayers to all the people affected by this poison.
Duh you dont experiment with drugs period! Common sense!
@@GeorgeFitness-yo8bl Teenagers aren't famous for common sense. Duh yourself, shitbird.
It does sound very unforgiving.
I know
@@GeorgeFitness-yo8bl duh u don't live in the real world then george! Kids experiment! When I was a teenager it was ecstasy. We all heard the stories of how it could kill but when ur young u think your invincible. You couldn't pay me today to take it but when ur young it's so different!
I am so sorry. May God Bless you. As I have mentioned to alot of parents, my stepson Sully passed away July 22nd 2019. He THOUGHT he was taking a xanax. Turned out to be xanax and fentanyl. I am on a mission myself TRYING to educate people in my area but the stigma is so prevalent. Not my kid. I repost these videos non stop. Sully is one of probably 20 people I personally know who have died from fentanyl poisoning. It's so frustrating.
He thought he was taking Xanax? He shouldn’t have been taking the Xanax either.
I was in shock when I read that alone you know about 20 people who passed away from this! How can this be possible, I don’t understand how this can happen in your country. I live in Germany and I watched a documentary about why fentanyl doesn’t has an impact here in Europe like it has in the US. It’s so terrible! I can’t even imagine the pain loosing my child. My deep condolences to all who experience this.
@@jisue3517 yes, I do know at least that many. That's not even counting friends of friends. I am 50 and a bartender so it could be due to the fact that I know and work with alot of younger people. I also lost my niece and my husband lost his older sister and a niece. Not to mention friends.

You are so articulate. Thank you for sharing with us. I'm sure you've saved a life. I'm already discussing this issue with my 9-year-old son.
Tucker was a beautiful boy. His spirit shines through his pictures. I pray Gods blessings upon you and all who loved him.
This mother is something else. RIP Tucker
Thanks for being brave enough to share your loss. I, too have a 19 yr old son who is 6’4” and my heart was breaking just listening to your son’s story. I am truly sorry for what you & your family are going through. Fentanyl is the devil- it really is.
What does his height have anything to do with? How goofy
@@user-ux1vj9vx7s right lol I was so confused
What a brave , sweet , amazing mom. My heart breaks for you. Stay strong, and keep telling your story! Even if it only helps one person, that’s a win!
14:32 - When she said, “My baby’s gone.” Gosh… that just broke my heart into a million pieces. It’s every mother’s worst nightmare, and that nightmare came true for her on that day. It’s agonizing, and I’m so incredibly sorry!
These stories are absolutely heartbreaking. Such beautiful young people with a beautiful futures ahead. There is no way you can’t be touched by this. Just so young, they don’t think.
Their brains are still so young. I just don’t know what we are going to do to stop this. 😢😢
They are so heart breaking…yet absolutely nothing is being done, as she alluded to….it’s unreal they just ignore it…
@@nationalduo4945 who is "they"??
people being featured?@@jamiebrooks2125
As a parent to a 7 year old autistic son and a 13 year old daughter I have heard of fentanyl but never thought to talk to my daughter about it. I will make it my priority to talk with my kids everyday about the importance of not doing drugs and not following the crowd. I will make sure my daughter watch these stories ❤
Yes, I think it would be wise to help kids to understand the reasons people start taking drugs: to fit in, to “forget” bad feelings and experiences,
I really don't think people will ever fully appreciate how traumatic it is to find someone dead. Especially when they mean something to you personally. I hate that the roommate was forced into that position, but I am even more thankful that it wasn't his immediate family, mom, dad, or siblings.
My daughter woke up to her best friend dead next to her, she had 8 times the lethal limit of Fentanyl in her system. My daughter had to do CPR on her until the ambulance arrived. Sadly she didn’t make it. On life lost, another changed forever. No amount of therapy will ever erase that moment from my daughters mind.
@@josephinevera9966 It's incredibly painful for a mother to see one of her children hurt. I found someone close to me who died in her sleep. She was not my mom, but she was the woman I called mom. It was horrible, and it's impossible to forget. She had just been taking a nap, in the middle of the day bc she didn't sleep well the previous night. She was on her boyfriend's couch in his living room, and he and his teen son were right there watching TV. I listen to other people's stories and something that everyone seems to do, is blame themselves by wishing they had been there to check on their deceased loved one. That whole horrible, "What if?" In reality however, they could have still been there, and not have even known. That's exactly what happened with mom. She died from a heart condition tho, it wasn't an OD. The only reason that I found her is bc his son came next door to my apartment. He mentioned mom was at his place taking a nap. I made a joke! I asked him if he was coming to my apartment to escape her loud snoring. (It was so so so very loud lol) He laughed, and responded with, "No, lol she's not snoring." That's when I said, "Wow! Really? Have you checked to see if she's dead?" Then I immediately, and suddenly, felt a sense of alarm. So I went to check in on her, she did have a history of strokes. Never told any of the family that she also had a bad heart. She never thought of herself, she was always putting others comfort ahead of her own, she didn't want to worry us. So I checked, and my entire world was forever changed. It was my husband's mom, my mom. He was SHATTERED! The ONLY thing worse than finding her and seeing her like that, and him seeing her like that, (besides her actually dying of course,) was that I had to tell Mamaw that her first born daughter was dead at the age of 43. (Only Mamaw I ever known too.) Besides the fact that I love both of those women immensely, I was literally telling a mother that her child was dead. I could actually hear the life drain from her voice, and it never returned. THAT was so bad, and gut wrenching. THAT haunts me, along with everything else about that day.
@@josephinevera9966 Sending love. I'm so sorry.
My sweet autistic 10 yo great nephew was sleeping with his Mom (42 yo) when she had a cardiac arrhythmia and quickly passed. This poor boy has that memory burned into his psyche.
@@saraw8503 I'm really very sorry for your loss, and the pain of watching someone you want to love and protect grieving. I have a couple cousins that one has autism, and the other has mental retardation. So I have an enormous soft spot in my heart for anyone who suffers from those very special mental hardships.
I know that a lot of people always blame the parent’s, it’s not always the parent’s fault. My parent’s were amazing and I’m a recovering addict. My love, my prayers and my deepest condolences go out to Tucker’s loving dear family and his friends. ❤️ 🙏 😇
Thank you for saying that. It's true. Bottom line honestly..we all choose food, drink, dope, working out, whatever it is..we make the choices and nobody forces us.
Tucker had the most beautiful, kind eyes. My heart just breaks for his family.🙏
You hit the nail on the head how hard it is to break free from opioids!
This is a national nightmare.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I remember the last story I just watched, Cameron was the teen who passed from the same thing, and his mom was saying how she's really good friends with Tucker's mom.😢
Yes, Cameron and Tucker both bought from the same dealer. That dealer is in federal custody now.
@@TexasPictures thank you for taking a second to comment. This whole fentanyl crisis has turned people into a modern day serial killer in every state across the map! The drug is their “weapon of choice”. 🙁
Is this Cameron’s mom’s friend? I’m so sorry for your loss :(
Yes it is.
I thought so when I heard her talk about the dealer
I wondered the same thing.😢
Omg that’s immediately what I thought when she mentioned the dealer posting at his funeral 😢💔 So tragic but I’m glad both mommas have each other to lean on now to comfort one another during those horrible times. I pray for their healing & strength ❤️🩹🙏🏽✨
@@AlexusMusic just tragic 😔
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful son’s story. My ex-husband (high school sweethearts…soul mates, but he fell into drug addiction sadly) died from Fentanyl poisoning 2 years ago. Telling our 10 year old twin boys that their dad was gone was the worst thing I’ve ever had to do. I pray our country and world start educating kids more on the risk of ANY drug having this in it. We need to save our babies from this poison. I’ll be sending prayers of peace to you and your beautiful family. 🤍🤍🤍
Wow, you are a strong woman to be able to talk about your sons passing, may God Bless you and your family. I lost my 26 year old son February 25,2023, he too was bright, interested in psychedelics was a very hard worker with a great work ethic, good at everything he did, meth got him in the end, the drugs out there are designed to kill, not to get high anymore, this is the devil in action, I truly believe a spiritual battle. I wish I did more, the pain of losing a child is unimaginable and no parent should have to endure pain like this,
The response from the police in stopping this drug dealer makes me so angry! I am so sorry you lost your sweet boy!
Yep but bet they would've been all over him if he'd had a little weed.
The slogan, "One Pill Can Kill" should be plastered everywhere!!! And what about the dealer...he should be charged with murder!!! RIP Tucker⚘️🙏❤️
One pill can kill sounds like a good slogan. This drug sounds so much more unforgiving than: pot, lsd say.
I don't agree that the dealer should be charged with murder. Just say NO to drugs. Don't do it. It's YOUR choice.
Thank you Mom for sharing Tucker’s story- your saving lives & I am in awe of your strength we all can literally feel the pure love you have for him
My heart broke listening to this - thank you I have a son coming of age and I will educate him - Tucker was special you can see it - so sad.....tears
That absolutely is the most beautiful portrait I have EVER, EVER SEEN. I want one of my latek husband but I'm so scared that it won't look like him. You can see EVERY PART of his. That is the most beautiful portrait I have seen. He looks like an angel as he should
Every person who has an addiction will struggle with shame and guilty. We hide and suffer in silence. Its a hard way to live and nobody can save us from ourselves. RIP Tucker. You were loved! Peace to family.
Say it again!
Thank you for sharing Texas Pictures Documentaries.
Thanks for your comment
As a kid you don’t think it’s going to happen to you. You don’t think you’ll become addicted. The first hit I took I knew I was done. Something told me that. I battled it for 20 years, and I thank God daily for helping me get sober. I had to learn to love myself in order to stop hurting myself.
Amazing stories all around throughout the series... for some reason, this one is hitting. 😢❤🎉
The tattoo is so perfect! Looks just like him! 💔 R.I.P
I've never seen a tattoo so beautiful like him. Rest with angels Tucker.
I was thinking the same thing. Portrait tattoos can go REALLy wrong very easily, but she seems to have picked an outstanding artist.
Looks ridiculous.., just as her easy going attitude about him wanting to purchase Percocet

Won't happen, because"they" are the ones making and bringing the drugs to this country.
Oh mama my heart breaks for you! I am so very deeply sorry for your loss! Thank you very much for sharing your story and what you shared! You are spot on in your explanation! Keep sharing!

My condolences to your family and to you as a mother. Your story was so heartbreaking but helpful to us moms.
My condolences to all who have lost loved ones by this poison.
May God bless the Roe and Turner families. I can tell how great a child Tucker was because clearly his mom is a hero--as is his sister, for going through the emotional toil it must've taken on you both to do this video. Stefanie, you articulated perfectly what fentanyl is. I'll no longer refer to it as a drug--but as a poison, as you said. Two of my best friends lost their sons to fentanyl poisonings. I'm writing your names down on my prayer list, and Tucker Roe's name will be forever on my heart (as will you and your family). I am so, so sorry. There are no words.
What a lovely lovely family! Thank you so much!

The mother has made many strong points that are relevant..sending condolences and prayers ❤️
Thank you for sharing your beautiful boy’s life story with us. Much love.
I look for these stories. They're so necessary. Heartbreaking, but necessary. My 17 yr old niece has never done drugs of any kind, & I try to tell her about these so she doesn't ever. I'm so sorry to these families losing these amazing family members. The world is missing out on these people.. all because of Fentanyl. 😢
Dont ever get comfortable and trust her judgement, keep stressing the importance of keeping off drugs.

From someone that was addicted to pills myself I have so much empathy for these families because I truly understand and it is very very hard. I pray everyone affected god gives you’ll peace
I share the stories with my son while driving in the car. I have his full attention then. He is 13 n home schooled. Thank you for sharing the stories. I didn’t know so many don’t know. I watch a lot of crime stories n why I hear about it so much.
Great idea. Of course, I hope you’re not watching while you’re driving. 😳We also have a documentary we created that’s on our channel called. “sidetracked“. That one is about distracted driving. 😉 but seriously, thank you for watching and sharing.
@@TexasPictures my husband does most of the driving unless I’m driving alone. So no, not driving. I’m not good at multi tasking. Lol
Alot of these are hard to watch but this one....soul crushing.... My heart breaks for Tucker and his beautiful family. I think the tattoo portrait of him is gorgeous. My heart goes out to her and her family....damn this was a tough one to watch....
I went to hike in the US in 2017 and was shocked at the casualness about things like hallucinogenics like marijuana, mushrooms and even ayahuasca. It was as “normal” as drinking coffee to many. A guy I met on the trail hiked with broken toe and didn’t even realized they were broken because he was high all the time. It was a big culture shock for me coming from a place where any kind of drugs / hallucinogenic are illegal and punishable up to death. I often wondered where is the line between safe and danger. It’s like alcohol…our body response is different every day. Some days, 1 glass is enough to knock me out and some days, I can walk straight even after 3 glasses. I think it’s impossible to tell how the body will react. To see so many young lives been taken this way is beyond sad and many happened quite innocently too. I wonder if the danger is the casualness about getting high or is it fentanyl cos when you abolish fentanyl, something else and possibly more deadly will be created cos as long as there is demand, there will always be supply whether it’s called this or that. Just wondering…
I am so very sorry for your loss. Wishing you comfort & peace. Absolutely heartwrenching. 😢💗
So sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing your story.

This video confused me. Yes, the loss is tragic, but the mother's comment indicates that he was chasing another fentanyl high. This seemed to go beyond the naive kid story that had never heard of fentanyl. "Some drugs are ok but heroin is bad" is not the message that parents should be sending. I hope that the mother is receiving counseling to better deal with her loss.
What a tragic loss to this whole world. I'm so very sorry.
That Tatoo on your arm of him is such a beautiful reminder of him and stays with you /strength in the days ahead

I’m so very sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing Tucker’s story - clearly he was an amazing young man. May sharing your pain help to save the lives of others so that no mother and no other family members and friends have to experience this type of loss ever again. 🌺
Dear Ms Roe. First my sincere condolences for your horrific loss. Second, bless you for your strength and courage in sharing your sad experience. May your telling of your grief and sadness be helpful to parents like you and kids like Tucker. Many would cocoon with their grief and not share as you so courageously have done. Just the telling was heart-wrenching for you and seeing your pain as did so many others brought tears to my eyes and theirs too I’m sure. Be proud that you have done a great service to others in spite of the pain of sharing.
The insanity of how he went back to the same person selling counterfeit pills. Especially after having pointed it out. Just absolutely crazy…
My neighbor just lost one of her sons to this. Unfortunately she was the one that discovered him in the back yard. It’s devastating.
My heart breaks for you and all of us who have lost someone including myself to this disease! I’m so very sorry for your monumental us of your beautiful boy, brother, nephew, and friend💔😢🙏
I'm so sorry for your loss, I pray God gives ya'll peace that surpasses all understanding.
From one mother to another, I’m so sorry. Prayers to you and all the families enduring this pain. Rest In Power, Tucker🙏🏾
