Billy Ortega intentionally mixed fentanyl with cocaine and sold it to five people. Three died.
A man who ran a drug delivery service for over seven years and sold tainted drugs that killed three New York residents in one day has been sentenced to prison. Billy Ortega, also known as 'Jason' according to the Southern District of New York's U.S. Attorney's Office, was sentenced on Thursday after being convicted of multiple charges, including conspiracy to distribute, possession of a firearm and distribution of drugs causing death.
The consumers did not know that the cocaine had fentanyl in it. Even before the drugs were delivered to the three people who died on March 17, Ortega was informed by another customer that someone who had consumed the laced cocaine the day before had overdosed and needed to be hospitalized and given naloxone, a medication that reverses an opioid overdose.
