A Columbus woman has been sentenced to three years in prison for providing the drugs that caused the fatal overdose of a Worthington man in 2016. 

28-year-old Lauren Spencer pleaded guilty to her role in the death of 25-year-old Julian Brown. Prosecutors say she facilitated Brown's purchase of fentanyl from 31-year-old Julian Bice, who is serving prison time.
