Leonold Mosley said he was just trying to prove a point when he asked his wife to shoot him up this past Christmas Eve, but the end result probably was not what he had in mind.
After being taken to the hospital due to a heroin overdose that night, the 39-year-old Bucyrus man was administered Narcan at least twice in order to revive him. Not long after, he and his wife, Heather Mosley, were arrested for drug possession. Heather Mosley, who pleaded guilty in February and sentenced to four years in prison, was also charged with corrupting another with drugs.
“I was just trying to prove a point to my wife and it backfired on me,” Mosley said in Crawford County Common Pleas Court Monday afternoon. He also apologized for what happened.
“It didn’t work out very well,” Judge Sean Leuthold pointed out. “She shot you up with way too much heroin and almost killed you.
Leuthold sentenced Mosley to 12 months in prison, fined him $1,250, and suspended his driver’s license for six months. Mosley must also forfeit any seized drug-related property to the Bucyrus Police Department.
“Honestly, somebody kills me by injecting me with heroin, I won’t be getting back with them anytime soon,” Leuthold said to Mosley.
