“‘Enjoy looking over your shoulder constantly wondering if today’s the day we come for you.
“Enjoy trying to sleep tonight, wondering if tonight’s the night our SWAT team blows your front door off the hinges.
“If our agents can show the nexus between you the pusher of poison and the person that overdoses and dies, we will charge you with murder. We are coming for you, run.”
