2 Arrested In Connection With Teen's Death From Molly
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (CBS4)- Two people have been arrested in connection to a teen's death after she overdosed on the street drug known as molly.
Megan Pacheco, 18, died in July after she was rushed to Children's Hospital from Colorado Springs.
The drug "molly" is similar to ecstasy. It comes in the form of powder or a pill. Doctors say it can increase heart rate, blood pressure and raise a person's body temperature like it did to Megan Pacheco. The teen died after taking the drug which had traces of opiates, heroin, morphine and other substances.
Police arrested Marjorie Dietrich, 22, and Ryan Kollman, 26. Investigators say the pair provided the teen with the drugs which then led to her death. They are facing drug distribution charges.
