PORTLAND, Ore. ( KOIN ) — A man was sentenced to four years in prison Tuesday after pleading guilty to third-degree assault and unlawful possession of substantial quantities of drugs.
The Washington County District Attorney’s Office said Bret Mitchell Hollmann and his fiancé, Megan Elizabeth Meek, had allegedly smoked fentanyl pills Hollmann purchased on March 13, 2023. Later that day, the couple’s two-year-old daughter had swallowed several fentanyl pills and other paraphernalia that were left in Meek’s bag, within reaching distance of the child.

The DA’s office said the bag of pills was allegedly left there by Meek in the backseat of the car after returning from making a purchase at an area business. The couple had been on the way to drop the child off at a babysitter so they could go shopping. When Hollmann arrived at his destination, “he and Ms. Meek noticed the child was actively overdosing on fentanyl,” officials said
