SAN JOSE — Following a rare murder charge for a 16-year-old boy accused of selling a fentanyl-laced pill blamed for the overdose death of a 12-year-old girl, Santa Clara County officials are planning to boost public information about tainted pills and refocus law-enforcement resources toward cartels and large-scale dealers behind the steady supply of illegal fentanyl in the South Bay.

At a Wednesday news conference, Supervisor Cindy Chavez said she is sponsoring a referral to the Board of Supervisors that would create a working group of drug treatment and education specialists, and people who have been affected by fentanyl addiction, to advise county agencies in their efforts to drive down a rising trend of fatal overdoses in the county.
