Josh Waring was sentenced to two years in prison for fentanyl-related drug charges. Waring is the son of 'Real Housewives of Orange County' castmember Lauri Waring Peterson.
The 33-year-old pleaded guilty on Monday to a felony count of possession of a controlled substance with the intent to sell, one count of possession of a stun gun with a prior conviction, three counts of possession of a controlled substance, and one count of possession of a controlled substance without a prescription, all misdemeanors.Waring possessed fentanyl and methamphetamine, according to Carrie Braun, a spokeswoman for the Orange County Sheriff's Department.
Orange County Superior Court Judge Scott Steiner declined to issue an unofficial advisement prosecutors have been seeking to give defendants that prosecutors may file an upgraded charge of murder if a defendant sells fentanyl to a victim who dies. Orange County sheriff's deputies said they found Waring in a car with a woman in a parking lot behind a business on Del Obispo and Ortega Highway inon Jan. 6. Because he was a parolee, the deputies searched him and found several baggies of fentanyl on him, Braun said.
Waring pleaded guilty in January to possession of a controlled substance and sentenced to 90 days in jail. As part of his plea deal at the time, misdemeanor counts of possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, and falsely representing himself to an officer were dismissed, along with misdemeanor counts of possession of a controlled substance and alteration of markings on an imitation firearm or device for a separate case.
