What Was Found in Jamie Cail’s Autopsy Report?
A retired American swimming champion’s unexpected demise was determined to be accidental and fentanyl-related. According to the Virgin Islands Police Department, Cail died from fentanyl intoxication and gastric content.
Fentanyl is a highly strong synthetic opioid that can be lethal in even tiny dosages. It is 50 times more strong than heroin and 100 times more potent than morphine.
A small amount of the substance can be fatal because it is up to 100 times more potent than morphine. In recent years, the frequency of overdose deaths has been largely attributed to fentanyl generated illegally.
As a part of the US women’s 4×200-meter freestyle relay team, Cail earned gold in the 1997 Pan Pacific Championships, the world’s governing body of swimming. In the women’s 800-meter freestyle, she also took home a silver medal at the FINA Swimming World Cup in Brazil in November 1998.
Cail attended the Bolles School in Jacksonville, Florida as a teen, a private college-preparatory institution renowned for its swimming and diving program.
