The List

For elite athletes, getting a chance to compete at the Olympic Games is often the pinnacle of their career. Some may reach this glorious height just once, while others make it to multiple games and earn medal after medal (looking at you, Simone Biles and Michael Phelps). It goes without saying that getting to this point takes a lot of work and years of training. What's more there are strict rules Olympic athletes are expected to follow to make sure their conduct is fair. While some errors can earn athletes nothing more than a figurative slap on the wrist, there are other infractions that have serious consequences. Every now and then, a scandal arises that proves even top-tier athletes make mistakes that can totally derail their careers.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds.
