As we reported, a man was charged with supplying Miller with the deadly drugs and is allegedly responsible for his death.

According to the docs, Pettit and others sold narcotics to the late 26-year-old rapper, who later died of mixed drug toxicity involving fentanyl, cocaine and alcohol.

Miller ended up snorting the fake pills.

The complaint also included text messages from Miller to the dealer coordinating the drug deal.

Authorities also believe a large amount of drugs were supplied to Miller by a madam, who used a prostitute to deliver him the dope. These pills did not contain Fentanyl.

Pettit is facing 20 years in federal prison, if convicted on the trafficking charge.

He's due in court today for his first appearance.
