Alexa Curtin Says She Is Homeless and Addicted to Fentanyl in Street Interview

Her on-camera account follows years of drug arrests, with the outcome of a 2017 legal award remaining unclear.

Overview

  • In a January 30 video by L.A. To You filmed at a Lancaster, California gas station, the 33-year-old described living on the streets and using fentanyl.
  • She said she has used fentanyl for six or seven years and claimed she is using less now after earlier heroin use and “smoking speed.”
  • Curtin stated she lost two fingers in a car accident and alleged she was raped while homeless in Lancaster, claims reported by outlets without independent verification.
  • She said her parents, who live in San Diego, have cut off financial support until she becomes sober and that she currently lacks a phone and identification.
  • Court and booking records cited by outlets show repeated drug-related arrests since 2016, a 68-day sentence in 2021, a brief 2024 jail stay for meth possession, and a 2017 $2.25 million judgment later challenged by Orange County.
