An Albion man has been charged with criminally negligent homicide after his wife died of a fentanyl overdose late last year.
Albion Police say Kevin McMullen was arrested after a nine-month investigation. He’s also charged with criminal possession of and intent to sell a controlled substance.
They say McMullen and his wife went to Rochester and bought fentanyl. She used some and overdosed, but was revived by her husband using CPR. After they returned to Albion, Megan McMullen used the drug again, and again ODd. This time her husband was unable to revive her.
McMullen allegedly injected fentanyl himself rather than calling 911, calling them hours later. By that time, Megan McMullen was dead.
McMullen is being held on $50,000 bail and is due back in court on Friday.
