Victims rally outside State Capitol: ‘Don’t punish me for my pain’
RICHMOND, Va. -- Over a dozen people rallied on the steps of the Virginia State Capitol Wednesday to protest what they said are the unintended consequences of the crackdown of the opioid epidemic.
The rally-goers were either sufferers of, or knew someone who suffered from, chronic pain.
“I've been in chronic pain for at least 20 years,” said one woman, who identified herself as Denise.
“My husband has the misfortune of being a very severe, intractable pain patient,” said Kristen Ogden.
