Second Suspect in Mac Miller’s Death Sentenced to 17 Years in Prison
A second suspect in the death of Mac Miller has been convicted. According to reports, 49-year-old Stephen Andrew Walter received a 17-and-a-half-year prison sentence for his role in the fentanyl overdose that ended the rapper’s life. A former dog groomer, Walter pleaded guilty to one charge of fentanyl distribution and claimed that he sent Ryan Michael Reavis — one of the other men charged and recently sentenced to 11 years in prison for Miller’s death — to Cameron Pettit, the third suspect, because he was supposedly unaware that the purchase was meant for Miller, real name Malcolm McCormick, and not for Pettit. “I dealt with Cameron Pettit, and he led me to believe that he was going to ingest the pills that I sold him. He never told me anything about McCormick. He didn’t tell me he w...
