On Thursday (Dec. 11), the man charged with distributing the lethal narcotics, Patrick Morgan, has pleaded guilty to one count of conspiring to distribute narcotics.

According to CBS New York, the prosecution and Morgan's lawyer have agreed to a stipulated sentencing guideline range, which means he'll most likely be sentenced to less than a year behind bars, as opposed to the maximum 20 years in prison that's generally attached to such a charge.
