Born Malcolm James McCormick, aka Mac Miller, was found unresponsive in his Los Angeles home on September 7, 2018. Miller was only 26 years old when he passed. Now, just 3 years later, the man who supplied the rapper with fentanyl-laced pills has pleaded guilty. Stephen Walter, who was 46 at the time of Miller’s death, entered a guilty plea on one count of distribution of fentanyl and will be facing up to 20 years in prison.

U.S. Attorney Nick Hanna stated back in a 2019 press release when address Mac Miller’s death: “Fentanyl disguised as a genuine pharmaceutical is a killer. Drugs laced with cheap and potent fentanyl are increasingly common, and we owe it to the victims and their families to aggressively target the drug dealers that cause these overdose deaths.”
