CARROLLTON, Texas - Two more arrests have been made in connection to a drug ring that caused several student overdose deaths in Carrollton.
Julio Gonzales Jr., 18, is charged with conspiracy to distribute fentanyl.
His roommate, 19-year-old Adrian Martinez-Leon, was also charged with drug conspiracy.
Investigators said DEA agents found thousands of fentanyl-laced M30 pills in their residence, as well as large amounts of money and several firearms.
Suspected Carrollton drug dealers could face murder charges
Last week's arrest of two suspected drug dealers in Carrollton may be one of the first cases in Texas where a murder charge could apply. That's because of a new law allowing for the charge if certain drugs are sold leading to death.
Police said the drugs have been linked to the overdoses of 14 minors, and four of those were deadly.
If convicted, Gonzales and Martinez-Leon face up to 40 years in federal prison.
