Lucas Michael Novick, 28, faced a federal judge who rejected a proposed 27-month sentence, deeming it inadequate after the fatal overdoses at a party where he supplied fentanyl. Judge James Donato criticized Novick's lack of respect for others and his role in endangering lives. Novick had purchased various drugs in San Francisco and distributed them at the party. Following two overdose deaths, he called 911, claiming to have tried to assist them. The next federal hearing is set for September 22, 2023.
