According to court records, Marc E. Brouillard admitted to police that he left the drugs under a shovel on May 28, 2021, where Benjamin Paonessa, 33, had placed $160 as payment.
Paonessa was later found unresponsive by his then-girlfriend at their Whipple Avenue residence.
His death was determined to be due to acute fentanyl intoxication.
