For the second time this week, a drug dealer who targeted Carrollton High School students with fentanyl-laced pills has pleaded guilty.
The feds are picking off the Carrollton fentanyl dealing defendants one by one as 20-year old Donovan Andrews waits to find out if he could wind up in federal prison until he's 60-years old.
Andrews pleaded guilty charges of conspiracy to distribute pills laced with fentanyl. Andrews was one of the gang members that sold the deadly pills to students between the ages 13 and 17 in the Carrollton Farmers Branch school system.
By March, three students had died and another nine had been poisoned due to fentanyl.
Two of the major dealers had been arrested. But Andrews decided to take advantage of the situation, advertising on social media accounts that he was very much in business and that he was selling the counterfiet pills for as little as $10 each.
When he was arrested, Andrews had a Hebron High School student in the car and a sock stuffed with more pills on the front seat.
Two days ago, the main supplier of the fentanyl used in the Carrollton ring pleaded guilty.
