Roseanne Character 'Killed Off' Show By "Opioid Overdose'

Description

According to Reuters, One of television’s best-known families returned on Tuesday without its matriarch, as the character of feisty Roseanne Conner was killed off through an accidental opioid overdose. Comedy series “The Conners,” featuring all the main characters in the blue-collar family from “Roseanne” except for its star and creator, Roseanne Barr, had its premiere on Disney-owned channel ABC, five months after “Roseanne” was canceled following a racist tweet by Barr. Audiences had last seen Roseanne Conner hiding an opioid addiction stemming from knee pain and about to undergo long-delayed, costly surgery.

According to UPI, the accuracy of the prediction is more than 90%. The study shows that neighborhoods with high rates of opioid-related overdoses make more calls to non-emergency hotlines. Most of the non-emergency reports involve code violations, abandoned vehicles, and other public nuisances. 311 reports of pests, unsanitary conditions, and streetlight outages predict future overdose hotspots more than 80% of the time.
