He was set to be released on July 21 for another crime, but pleaded guilty to drug-induced homicide, adding seven years to his sentence.
NAPERVILLE, IL -- A Bolingbrook man will serve seven more years in prison after being convicted of a drug-induced homicide. He supplied heroin to a Naperville man, who overdosed and died in September 2013, according to the Naperville Sun.
Troy Dunham, 24, was set to be released from prison on July 21. He was incarcerated for selling heroin to undercover agents of the Will County Metropolitan Area Narcotics Squad.
On May 30, though, he pleaded guilty to the drug-induced homicide of Connor Kelly, 21, of Naperville. The conviction is a class X felony. Will County Circuit Court Judge Carla Alessio-Policandriotes sentenced Dunham to seven more years in prison for the conviction. He was originally charged with Kelly's death last year.
