Episode #64: Welcome to the Roman Gabriel Show. My guest is Derek Maltz, the former acting administrator of the Drug Enforcement Agency. For many years now Derek has been at the forefront of calling for greater awareness and education about the number one
killer of our children in America, the deadly poison fentanyl. Since 2020 our country has lost over a half million people, and many of them children. Derek has dedicated his life to working with Angel parents across the country who have lost their children to accidental fentanyl poisoning. While assisting them in proactively getting the message out through opioid legislation, school assembly programs, and parental support resources.
Derek comes from a law enforcement family and is widely recognized as a national leader in the fight against fentanyl and global drug trafficking. He frequently appears in U.S. media and testifies before Congress to raise awareness on critical public safety threats.
Derek is now the senior vice president of global business growth and strategy at Penlink, a digital intelligence company. His leadership in that role was the latest chapter in a distinguished 28-year federal career, including service as Special Agent in Charge of the DEA's Special Operations Division and as Chief of the New York Drug Enforcement Task Force.
If you want to know more and be educated about the number one health crisis in America, hear the commitment law enforcement has to protecting us, and what all of us can do to keep our children and families safe. Stay tuned and enjoy my conversation with Dereck Maltz.
