A Virginia woman has been sentenced to 16 years in prison in connection with the overdose death of her boyfriend, according to the New York Post.
The New York Post reports that a Stafford County Circuit Court handed down the sentence to Megan, 32, last Friday.
Prosecutors said Megan called 911 on July 15, 2019, to report that her boyfriend, Brandon, was unresponsive. He was taken to Mary Washington Hospital, where he later died of a heroin overdose. Investigators recovered drugs, paraphernalia and a video from the scene.
Prosecutors said the video showed her laughing and mistreating Brandon while he was in medical distress, and that it showed she waited at least 45 minutes before calling 911.
Her attorney, Price Koch, argued in court that she was also on drugs at the time and recorded the video to show Brandon later in hopes of getting him to quit using. Koch told the court it was done stupidly and wrongly, but that there was no malice.
