Skin Rotting Drug, Xylazine, Is Here In Steuben County

October 19, 2023

STEUBEN COUNTY, NY – Steuben County District Attorney Brooks Baker said this morning on the WLEA Newsmaker Show, that there has been more than one case of the severe skin rotting drug Xylazine being used, in the county. “We have seen a couple of cases where that stuff is being sold,” Baker said this morning. “We are hearing that it is floating around the streets. That’s how Fentanyl started. First we heard it was a national problem, it was popping up, around the border, and then we were hearing more about it. Then it began to replace cocaine and heroin, and now it’s in all of our drugs.”
