The man was found dead in a bathtub by an apparent overdose.

That case remains active.
He has a hearing scheduled for Aug. 31 for felony charges for, Manufacture, Delivery, or Possession With Intent to Manufacture or Deliver and Criminal Use Of Communication Facility relating to an incident in June.
