Jury deliberating in case involving major opioid ring

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A jury is deliberating in the case of a Utah man accused of running a multimillion-dollar opioid ring that shipped fake prescription drugs across the country, causing at least one fatal overdose.
Prosecutors said during closing arguments Thursday that Aaron Shamo’s operation helped fuel the nation’s opioid epidemic by making hundreds of thousands of pills available to addicts and other users.
They said $1 million was found in his dresser.
