On Jan. 9 of last year, the bodies of 38-year-old Ricky Johnson, 37-year-old Clayton McGeeney and 36-year-old David Harrington were found outside the home of Jordan Willis. The group of Chiefs fans were at Willis’ place to watch the team’s regular-season finale against the Los Angeles Chargers.
According to Fox News, Willis and Ivory J. Carson were charged with three counts of involuntary manslaughter as well as two counts of delivery of a controlled substance.
According to court records obtained by Fox News, Carson sold cocaine to Johnson, McGeeney, Harrington and Willis. All three men are said to have died from a lethal mixture of cocaine and fentanyl.

Per Fox News, Willis’ attorney said he moved out of the home where his three friends died and later entered a rehabilitation program.
