The lovely woman pictured above is being charged with providing prescription drugs from 2008 to 2011 to four young adults who overdosed on Opana, a narcotic painkiller similar to oxycodone. Jordan Steffen reports:
Almeda "Ally" Sullivan has been charged with one count of first-degree murder with extreme indifference in the 2011 accidental overdose death of 21-year-old Carter Hidgon. Sullivan has also been connected to three additional overdose deaths.Read more here.
The first three overdose deaths allegedly connected to Sullivan provide the basis for the first-degree murder charge for Higdon's death, and prosecutors must prove that Sullivan knew what she was doing, was dangerous and remained indifferent. They are not required to prove she intended to kill Higdon.
