LACONIA, N.H. -- A Laconia man has pleaded guilty to selling heroin to a local mother who was found dead of an overdose inside her apartment earlier this year.

Stephen Marando was sentenced Tuesday three to 10 years in state prison after he pleaded guilty to a charge of conspiracy to distribute heroin resulting in death. The Citizen reported that Marando also pleaded guilty to related drug charges.

Police said the 50-year-old Marando and two women sold heroin to 23-year-old Ashley Denty.



Denty was found dead inside her apartment on April 1 after neighbors heard her toddler, but were unable to get Denty to answer the door. The medical examiner ruled that she died of an overdose.

The two women charged in the case are awaiting trial.
