Muskego Men Charged After Getting Ice Cream and Then Shooting Up Heroin

Three Muskego men are facing charges after they went to go get ice cream then shoot up heroin in Waterford Tuesday.

Nicholas Michael Diels, 19, Nicholas D. Sullivan, 18 and Darren J. Gauthier, 20 were charged in Racine County Circuit Court Wednesday with one count of possession of narcotic drugs. If convicted, Diels and Gauthier face up to 3 ½ years in prison and Sullivan faces up to four years in prison.

According to the criminal complaint:

Racine County sheriff’s deputies were called to the 900 block of West Main Street after Diels passed out and wasn’t breathing. Sullivan said Diels had just injected heroin in his car, then showed a deputy his shoe, which had a secret compartment containing morphine.

Sullivan said he picked up Diels and Gauthier and they went to get heroin, then went to Uncle Harry’s Ice Cream. They then went to find a place to shoot up, but Diels passed out 15 seconds after injecting himself with heroin.

Officers found paraphernalia for using heroin inside Sullivan’s car, along with a bag of marijuana, added a charge of possession of THC against him.

All three are currently being held in Racine County Jail on cash bond.
