Innocent plea in overdose death

A Vermont woman has pleaded innocent to charges she sold prescription drugs to a friend who died after taking too many of them. 45-year-old Brenda Kennett was arraigned in connection with the death last year of Caitlin Lancey of Bellows Falls. Police said Lancey was found dead the day after Kennet sold her four morphine tablets for 200 dollars. Bellows Falls Police Detective Jennifer Carroll said Lancey was no stranger to the department; officers had been to her home three times in connection with Lancey's drug overdoses.
