A drug dealer in Ohio was ordered by a judge this week to cover the funeral costs for a teen who died of a fentanyl overdose. Michael Chandler, 29, of Cincinnati was also sentenced to more than 16 years in prison for drug distribution and possession. Authorities say Chandler sold a lethal amount of fentanyl to a 17-year-old identified in court documents as J.H. According to The Associated Press, an investigation into the teen’s death led authorities to Chandler, whose home contained a “large quantity” of fentanyl, as well as cocaine, drug paraphernalia and a handgun. Chandler had previously served time for cocaine and heroin trafficking, according to The Cincinnati Enquirer.
