A Jamestown man was sentenced to 10 years in prison, with two years suspended on Wednesday. The felony charge related to his 2-year-old child overdosing on fentanyl in Southeast District Court in Jamestown after a judge rejected the recommended sentence from attorneys in the case.
Christopher William Johnson pleaded guilty to endangerment of a child, a Class B felony, at his change-of-plea hearing and sentencing. Johnson’s 2-year-old child was found unresponsive on June 2, and court documents say Johnson admitted to using fentanyl in his residence while the 2-year-old was home with him, fell asleep, and when he woke up, the 2-year-old child was unconscious.
