A man in the United States will spend fifteen years in prison for the death of a fifteen-year-old girl. The ruling “sets a precedent in California.” The teen died from consuming fentanyl.

The convicted person is Nathaniel Caba-Cungan, who “sold fentanyl pills” to the young woman “who lost her life due to an overdose,” Noticias Univisión reported.

In addition, Caba-Cungan – also profiled as Cabacungan, by CBS News and ABC 10 – received a prison sentence of “nine consecutive years for distributing drugs to a minor.”

Cabacungan sold a counterfeit opioid containing fentanyl to 15-year-old Jewels Wolf.
