As Alissa Zhu, Nick Thieme, Jessica Gallagher found, people in Baltimore have been dying of overdoses at a rate never before seen in a major city, and City Hall is doing nothing meaningful about it. Yesterday, the mayor shut down a public hearing on it thebaltimorebanner.com/politics-power…

In the past year of reporting on overdoses in Baltimore, a treatment program kept coming up. We looked into it: At least 13 deaths deaths since 2022. This year a mom died, then her baby starved. It operated in the shadows & got paid millions by the state. nytimes.com/2024/12/20/us/…
