The law allowing Kami Ludwig to be charged with murder is still new and, so far, has mostly been used against drug dealers and drug suppliers -- not the buyers. It will be up to a grand jury to decide if her alleged purchase of the drugs that led to her boyfriend's overdose constitutes a murder charge.
A new law that allows police to charge drug dealers with murder if a user dies of overdose is being applied to a woman accused of buying drugs from a dealer.Grapevine police arrested and charged Kami Ludwig this week after her boyfriend's November overdose in a Grapevine home. Police say she purchased fentanyl-laced pills, Xanax, cocaine and more from dealers in Fort Worth and Louisiana.
Detectives also found pills on the floor next to the bed where Nolen was found and a cut straw on the vanity, suggesting pills were being crushed and snorted.Ludwig was initially arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance in November. A search of Ludwig’s phone revealed her sources of the fentanyl-laced pills were identified by the names "Blue" and "T," who live at a home in Fort Worth.
