Nathan Laffitte, 19, was arrested by police after the death of Lilly McCarthy, who died in hospital after falling ill at an address in Hopton in the early hours of Saturday, January 24.

He was charged with supplying MDMA - the chemical term for ecstasy - with intent.

On Friday, Laffitte, of no fixed address, appeared at Norwich Crown Court via videolink when he pleaded guilty to a single charge of supplying the class A drug on January 23 this year.
