What Happened to Emma Semler? - The Other Side with Richie H.

The Other Side with Richie H.

The case of Emma Semler shocked the nation: how did two young women leave a third woman to overdose and die in a restaurant bathroom? And why did one of those women, Emma Semler, get charged as a drug dealer when she didn't sell drugs? BlueCrest CEO Richie Hession joins Stas Botsaris, Regional VP of Business Development at BlueCrest, to discuss his personal connection to the case. Stas, who was in a relationship with Emma, speaks about her deep remorse over her actions, her commitment to recovery and sobriety—including sponsorship of many others—and the way that addiction can short-circuit our sense of right and wrong. And Richie and Stas discuss how the aftereffects of Emma's trial could stop more people from seeking medical help for someone overdosing.
