Prior to that, people could be charged with possessing or selling drugs, but no mechanism existed to charge them with contributing to a person’s death.

Corson was a 20-year-old prostitute when she was introduced to Plunkett by a mutual drug dealer in February 2006, she testified during a preliminary examination for Plunkett. She moved into his apartment in Ann Arbor three months later.
