On Tuesday, the 36-year-old man was sentenced to 15 years in prison followed by five years of supervised release for selling pills that led to the overdose of a woman.
Jamie Donnelly A Tucson man was sentenced to prison on Tuesday after he previously pleaded guilty to the distribution of fentanyl resulting in the overdose death of a 31-year-old woman in May 2020.
In May 2020, Acuna sold two pills containing fentanyl to the victim and her boyfriend for $30, the news release said. The woman was later found unconscious on the floor of an apartment and was pronounced dead, according to court records. The woman's boyfriend told authorities they had purchased pills from Acuna at the hotel and that she had smoked one of the pills just before collapsing. They did not know the pills contained fentanyl, the boyfriend told authorities.
