The accused pleaded guilty to trafficking in fentanyl and possession of proceeds of crime after being found with 28 grams of fentanyl and nearly $5,000.
Despite being released on bail to seek treatment, the accused failed to meaningfully engage in rehabilitation over an 18-month period.
The court rejected a conditional sentence, emphasizing denunciation and deterrence for fentanyl trafficking.
After accounting for pre-sentence custody and onerous bail conditions, the accused was sentenced to two years in a penitentiary, at her request to access better treatment programs, followed by one year of probation.
