Senator Steve Chan Wrote The Bill We Need
Yesterday, I read the NYT’s article and then wrote about Connor Barr and how the law needed to be changed, so that drug dealers could be charged with murder if someone died from the drugs they sold them.
I didn’t know that Steve Chan introduced “Sasha’s Bill.” It’s exactly the bill we need NY to pass.
Last year, Sasha Tarelkine, a 14-year-old Brooklyn Tech student died from fentanyl poisoning. Her parents spoke out about it in hope that it would help other families. See their writing:

Senator Chan’s Bill:
Senator Chan also has a bill to educate students about fentanyl. (https://nysenate.gov/legislation/bills/2025/S7140
Almost ten years ago, my friend died from a deadly mixture of drugs from a drug dealer in Bay Ridge:
RIP George Dunne – October 26, 2015
Bay Ridge residents, Senator Andrew Gounardes has not co-sponsored either bill (there’s no lobbyist here). Gounardes represents the area where Brooklyn Tech High School is, so he should have spoken out about this and taken action!
If you are a friend of Gounardes, urge him to cosponsor S7140A and S7141A.

Randazzo’s is a great place.
I don’t know any of the dishes shown in the video because for decades we have been going there. I always order the mussels in red sauce. Mussels & More at 8001 – 5th Avenue and Brooklyn Roots at 8620 – 3rd Avenue have great mussels as well.

Bay Ridge Parents Shared Their Fight For Their Son’s Life and Then For Justice – NY Times
Connor Barr died in 2022 from fentanyl poisoning.
His parents fought for him and tried getting him help many times.
After Connor died, his parents sought justice for him by turning over important information to the police. The man who supplied Connor with drugs was arrestred and brought to court. Although he didn’t get as many years in jail as Connor’s family hope, he was sentenced to jail. Read their story here:
https://tinyurl.com/yh3ht6zt (It is a very sad story)
The government needs to make harsher penalties for drug dealers. If someone dies from a product they sold, they should be charged with murder. People who are purchasing oxy, valium, or cocaine don’t know it is laced with fentanyl.
RIP Connor.
