I am so sorry for this family and the loss of their child.

Grieving people are not policy experts though. I don't know the details of the death report for this case but there are all kinds of issues with them in the US.

The lawyers actually say they agree with many kratom users on some issues: that there should be regulation, safety warnings and limit to extravagant claims of benefit. However they then go on to conflate plant product with extracts.

This video contains multiple unsourced "quotes" (like literally displayed on screen text with quotes around them) making strong factual claims. Then a strawman attributed to "critics" is used to seem balanced.
