OZAUKEE COUNTY, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Nearly two years after 28-year-old Nick Hamilton died after ingesting fentanyl-laced drugs, a woman has been charged in connection to his death.

On May 5, 2023, Hamilton and three friends were at a birthday celebration at the Railroad Station bar in Saukville.

According to a criminal complaint, the group bought fentanyl-laced cocaine from a person police described as a regular of the bar.

Later that night, the four went to a Grafton home and took the drugs.

All four overdosed in the early morning hours. When one of the women noticed Hamilton had stopped breathing, she called 911.

Hamilton died in the hospital on May 8.

According to a criminal complaint, the person who made the 911 call said she and Hamilton ingested cocaine from one bag that was sold to them. After using the substance in a second bag, she immediately felt different than when she had used cocaine in the past and from when she used some of the drugs in the first bag.

Authorities have now charged 40-year-old Amber Williams of Saukville in connection. She's facing one count of first-degree reckless homicide.

In court for an initial appearance on April 14, 2025, a judge set Williams' bond at $100,000.
