A second woman, wanted in connection to the death of a Pryor man who overdosed on fentanyl in 2021, was arrested by the US Marshal office last week in Tulsa and has been charged with First Degree Murder.
Law enforcement say Katelyn Young has been charged in the death of Aaron Jenks,
who was found dead in his home after overdosing on fentanyl pills in June of 2021.
U.S. Marshals tracked down and arrested Young in Tulsa on Friday afternoon after
a first-degree murder arrest warrant was issued for her last week in Mayes County.
Pryor Creek Police Department investigators said Young sold the “fent pressed” pills to Donielle Brigance, who then sold the pills to the victim.
Police in Mayes County arrested Brigance on February 15th, charging her with Murder in the First Degree, Unlawful Delivery of a Controlled Dangerous Substance, and Distribution of a Controlled Dangerous Substance.
