A Fredericksburg man, 45, was sentenced to 40 years in prison in Stafford Circuit Court. The sentence includes a mandatory minimum of six years to serve, with 20 years suspended. The charges stemmed from an investigation into the overdose death of a Stafford County resident.
The investigation revealed that the man had distributed narcotics to the victim shortly before the fatal overdose. During a traffic stop, the Stafford County SWAT team recovered approximately 90 Fentanyl pills and a quantity of Xylazine from the suspect.
