GETTING HIGHER:
A LOOK AT THE STATISTICS
By Curt Shayner
Within the last year, there has been a reported 65% surge in drug-related arrests throughout Pallad City. Statistics show that Sydust, Nucaine, and Euphoria usage have dramatically increased, with no signs of slowing down.
Known as โclub drugs,โ these are far from the only illicit substances that have left their mark on the cityโbut they are notable as being the specific focus of a recent study released by the Pallad City Addiction Center.
According to the study, Sydust usage has increased by 27%, while Nucaine and Euphoria usage have risen by 34% and 39%, respectively.
These three drugs have also seen a 33% rise with users in the 18-24 age range and a 26% increase with users between the ages of 25-34.
The general statistics are even more alarming. Overall drug-related deaths have soared by 44% and the arrest of offenders involved in repeated drug-related crimes have climbed 46% when compared to last year’s reported findings.
Despite these numbers, funding cuts to citywide drug rehabilitation facilities have had their budgets slashed by nearly 48%, with ongoing grants cancelled and staff drastically reduced.

Wonder how long that you can LAST against this, Madison?! ๐๐๐
Oh,no.
It’s getting worse for Miss Madison now.

And how long after that before she offers to help Madison have the soul searing orgasm needed?
