The last defendant has been sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison.

Nineteen-year-old Christopher Dorris of Roscoe, Illinois was also sentenced to 3 1/2 years extended supervision for delivering or manufacturing heroin.

Eighteen-year-old Ryan Kennington of Beloit died of a heroin overdose at his home on November 27, 2008.
