Man sentenced in teen’s fentanyl death

A Cusick, Wash., was sentenced to more than 12 years in federal prison for selling the pill that led to the fatal fentanyl-related overdose of a Sandpoint teen in 2020. U.S. District Judge B. Lynn Winmill sentenced Antoinne James Holmes, 23, to 151 months in prison and ordered that he pay $3,270 in restitution. Holmes, upon completion of his prison time, was also ordered to serve an additional three years of supervised release, U.S. Attorney Josh Hurwit said in announcing the sentence.
