A St. Charles Township man has been sentenced to 27 years in prison after pleading guilty to drug-induced homicide and armed violence, the Kane County State’s Attorney’s Office said on Tuesday.
Officials with the State’s Attorney’s Office said that Eric R. Fabisiak, 26, knowingly sold counterfeit M-30 oxycodone pills, known as “blues,” laced with fentanyl, according to a news release from the office.
According to statements presented in court by Kane County Assistant State’s Attorney Kelly Orland, St. Charles police were dispatched on June 17, 2025, to a death investigation in the 1100 block of South Third Street in St. Charles, where Amun Ahmed, 24, of Bolingbrook, had been found unconscious and not breathing by a romantic partner, the news release said.
An autopsy by the Kane County Coroner’s Office confirmed he had died from combined drug toxicity.
Police were told that the previous evening Ahmed had ingested one of 15 pills purchased from Fabisiak, the news release said. The pills were small, round, blue, pressed with “M” and “30” and looked like prescription oxycodone, per the State’s Attorney’s Office. Lab testing ultimately revealed that the pills were counterfeit and contained fentanyl, officials said.
A few days later, investigators conducted a traffic stop and took Fabisiak into custody, the State’s Attorney’s Office said. A search of him and his vehicle found 72 small blue pills stamped with “M” and “30,” which tested positive for fentanyl, officials said.
Investigators also found a loaded Smith & Wesson .380 revolver, 6.2 grams of cocaine, a scale, several unused small plastic bags and additional .380 ammunition in the vehicle, the news release said,
Fabisiak admitted to investigators that he sold the pills and knew they contained fentanyl, according to the State’s Attorney’s Office. The office also said that he was not allowed to possess a firearm because he is a convicted felon.
On March 24, Fabisiak pleaded guilty to drug-induced homicide and armed violence, both felony offenses, according to the State’s Attorney’s Office. He has since been sentenced to 27 years in state prison.
Of the 12 years he was sentenced to on the drug-induced homicide charge, Fabisiak must serve 75%, the release said. He must serve 50% of the 15 years in prison he was sentenced to for the armed violence charge. The sentences must be served consecutively, and he receives credit for 1,753 days served in the Kane County jail, officials said.
