One Pill Can Kill

A 48-year-old man, Levi Phillip Miles, just received a five-year federal prison sentence after prosecutors proved he distributed fentanyl-laced pills that killed his cousin, David Aylor, in South Carolina. Miles, who had been supplying prescription painkillers to Aylor for months, gave him a fatal dose on January 1, 2023 — the next day, Aylor was found dead. The autopsy confirmed fentanyl in his system, and Miles admitted his drugs caused the death. Prosecutors warned that “one pill can kill,” and Miles now faces 60 months in prison, three years of supervised release, and a $40,000 fine — with no parole possible. This case underscores the deadly reach of fentanyl and the federal system’s zero-tolerance stance on distribution. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
