Ian Parrish, 28, pleaded guilty in August to selling four pills to a person at a bar in Fremont the previous year, two of which were counterfeit "M30" pills designed to look like Percocet but contained fentanyl. TThe man died less than 30 minutes later.
Prosecutors said Aremendariz late last week pleaded guilty to four felonies for selling drugs to minors, misdemeanors for possession of ammunition by a prohibited person, possession of fentanyl and two-strike prior offenses.
Prosecutors accused Ian Edward Parrish, 28, of San Jose, of selling two counterfeit Percocet pills to an individual in a bar in Fremont that were laced with fentanyl. The individual who bought the pills consumed one and shortly thereafter died of an overdose.
Police said Simon Armendariz used monikers such as “Risky” and “Madman” to sell the drugs to 15-year-olds in various locations throughout downtown Los Gatos, including the parking lot of Los Gatos High School or a nearby church.
