Kroger to pay Washington nearly $50M in proposed resolution to fentanyl lawsuit
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- Retail company Kroger is set to pay almost $50 million to the state of Washington to resolve a lawsuit tied to the fentanyl crisis.
On Tuesday morning, Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson announced he signed a deal that will bring $47.5 million to battle the opioid epidemic.
Ferguson filed a lawsuit in December 2022 in King County Superior Court against Kroger for illegally, recklessly, and negligently filing opioid orders without investigating red flags of fraud or overprescribing.
