When questioned by his attorney, James Murphy, Nguyen admitted to supplying drugs that caused the death of the unidentified victim, who was found unresponsive at his home at 12:15 p.m. on Nov. 24, 2016, after officers received an emergency call. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The victim died of “fentanyl toxicity,” according to an autopsy done by the Burlington County Medical Examiner’s Office. Nguyen was identified as the dealer who provided the drugs and was arrested in April.
