Greensboro Attorney gives update on Recent Overdose Death

In Personal Injury, Criminal by Greensboro Attorney

The short version

Laws change all of the time. A recent law allows for those who distribute drugs and those drugs end up killing someone to be charged in their death. That’s exactly what happened this week as two men have been charged with a wrongful death just outside of Greensboro, North Carolina according to our Greensboro attorney.

The men are charged with second degree murder and death by distribution. Police initially responded to a missing persons report involving a 37-year-old man and his daughter. The girl was found safe and without any personal injuries that same day. Sadly, they ended up finding the man dead just outside of Greensboro, North Carolina.

Deputies continued their investigation and found the death to be suspicious according to our Greensboro Criminal Attorney. Following an autopsy they found that the man died of an overdose and now have charged the two people he was with in his murder.
