ELKO, Nev. — Richard Cusolito believes he's saving lives by distributing clean syringes and needles to people who use drugs in this rural area of northeastern Nevada — but he knows some residents disagree.
"I'm hated in this town because of it," said Cusolito, 60. "I'm accused of 'enabling the junkies,' pretty much is the standard term. People don't get the impact of this whole thing."
