New York City drug dealer Irvin Cartagena, 40, was sentenced to 10 years in prison for selling Michael K. Williams the fentanyl-laced heroin that caused the actor's death in September 2021. Cartagena also received an additional five-year sentence of supervised release.
Irvin Cartagena faced a potential life sentence for supplying drugs that caused “The Wire” actor’s overdose, but a guilty plea allows for less prison time.
