A college student in New York City died after she unwittingly took fentanyl and was raped by a teenager in her dorm room … according to prosecutors.<\/p>\n

Moises Freire — a 19-year-old from the Bronx — has been charged with participating in a fentanyl distribution conspiracy and distributing a deadly drug with intent to commit rape in connection with an alleged incident authorities say went down on March 18.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors claim Freire brought a substance to two students’ dorm room and told them it was pure cocaine when it was actually fentanyl.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The female students then took the substance and almost immediately lost consciousness, prosecutors say … at which time Freire allegedly proceeded to rape one of them.<\/p>\n

The alleged victim slipped into a coma and died three days later on March 21.<\/p>\n

Two other men — Brian Peralta Cabrera and\u00a0Harry Rosales Pino — were charged in connection with the alleged drug distribution. They are not said to have any role in raping the alleged victim.<\/p>\n

Pino has already pled guilty to conspiracy to distribute narcotics resulting in death and serious bodily injury. He is scheduled to be sentenced in December.<\/p>\n

Mitchell Schwartz — Freire’s attorney — told a judge his client was not trying to ply the women with drugs … and chalked up the alleged incident to just a “dumb teenager” moment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New York City College Student Dies After Being Drugged, Raped In Her Dorm Room … Prosecutors Claim Published…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":374860,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[9,11,10],"class_list":["post-374859","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/374859","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=374859"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/374859\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/374860"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=374859"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=374859"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=374859"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
