Patrick Morgan is accused of selling the synthetic drug “molly,” a form of ecstasy, to several people including Jeffrey Russ.

At last summer’s Electric Zoo music festival in New York, Russ collapsed and had a seizure. He died at the hospital.

Two others also died from molly overdoses at the festival, prompting the city to call off Electric Zoo.

Despite Russ’s death, Morgan reportedly continued to sell. Court records show he sent a text message in March to Russ’ friends that said “u too call me whenever you want.”
