ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — A Navy veteran who served as a medic in Afghanistan is accused of injecting two Alaska teens with drugs, one of whom died of an overdose.
Sean Warner initially was charged with injecting only one girl — a 14-year-old from Anchorage who authorities say died from the fatal heroin dose. But court records show he also faces a new charge of injecting a 17-year-old with drugs the week before.
Warner is expected in court Thursday afternoon.
He faces a manslaughter charge in the Dec. 22 death of 14-year-old Jena Dolstad.
Dolstad's stepfather, Brett Williams, tells KTUU-TV (http://bit.ly/zjYvsa) that the girl's mother wasn't around much. He says the family had its ups and downs but Dolstad always came home.
Family members say Warner served as a Navy medic in Afghanistan and now suffers from post-traumatic stress.
