Drew Wagner, 34, admitted last year to starting a fight with his drug dealer Chris Bagley, 31, in 2018 for robbing him and then holding Bagley down while another man, Drew Blahnik, repeatedly stabbed him to death. Wagner was originally charged with first-degree murder but pleaded in June to amended charges of voluntary manslaughter, assault while participating in a felony, conspiracy to commit a forcible felony, abuse of a corpse and obstruction of prosecution. As part of the plea he testified against Drew Blahnik and faces up to 37 years in prison. In a separate case, Wagner also pleaded guilty to possession with intent to deliver marijuana and failure to affix a drug tax stamp. Those two five-year sentences will run concurrently for a total of five years, according to the plea agreement. It will be left up to the discretion of the judge as to whether to run those five-year terms concurrently or consecutively to the 37 years in prison. |
