  BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS –  [DOJ MEDIA STATEMENT/ NO BOOKING PHOTO] – A Wareham resident was sentenced today in federal court in Boston for selling fentanyl to a 42-year-old man who died of an overdose. Kayla Nightingale, 37, was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Denise J. Casper to 52 months in prison, to be followed by three years of supervised release and ordered to pay $7,868 in restitution to the family of the victim for funeral expenses. In August 2024, Nightingale pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute fentanyl and distribution of fentanyl. In October 2020, Nightingale and her co-conspirator, Troy Jones, were indicted by a federal grand jury.   Jones and Nightingale worked together from January 2019 through at least April 3, 2019 to distribute fentanyl in Wareham, including to a 42-year-old Wareham resident. On April 2, 2019, that resident died of a fentanyl overdose.   United States Attorney Leah B.

Noble, Superintendent of the Massachusetts State Police; Wareham Police Chief Walter Correia; and the Barnstable Police Chief Jean Challies made the announcement today.
