A Portage County man is going to prison for nine years for the role he played in another man’s overdose death.
46-year-old Jason Meisel had entered a guilty plea to a charge of reckless homicide.
Meisel and Gary Mayek of Junction City were in a Plover hotel doing drugs when Mayek died.
Meisel told investigators he provided the drugs they snorted that January night in 2019, but he said he didn’t spike them with fentanyl.
An autopsy found fentanyl in Mayek’s system.
