USA. Arrests at North Carolina Methadone Clinic Raise Ethical, Legal Alarms

On a pleasant summer’s morning in North Carolina, a law enforcement officer was searching for a woman who had missed a probation appointment.

Emma*, 41, had been placed on an 18-month probation term in a July 2022 judgment for illegally possessing a Schedule II drug. In 2023, she began receiving treatment at Jacksonville Treatment Center, where services include counseling and provision of methadone and buprenorphine for opioid use disorder. (Filter, USA, 21.05.2024)
