Maybe it's cases of cross contamination? If a miniscule ammount of fentanyl somehow contaminates cannabis weighed with the same equipment that might backfire badly.
No, it's just fearmongering bullshit. Probably from the cops. As the article says, they haven't found a single credible instance of this happening.
You wouldn't really use the same scale to weigh Fentanyl and weed. Fentanyl is dosed in micro grams. $10k of fentanyl requires a much more precise scale than $10k of weed. Typically such a precise scale cannot handle the weight of $10k of weed.
You'd have to have a dealer who sells very large amounts of Fentanyl and very small amounts of weed.
How do they avoid death through overexposure to fentanyl anyways? Maybe the fentanyl is sold through industrial producers using backwater channels.
