A man whose family was killed in their North Carolina home has pleaded guilty to drug charges that officials say led to the deaths of his wife and children.

Multiple media outlets reported Tuesday that Brian Tzeo was sentenced to more than two years probation after he pleaded guilty Monday to three drug charges, including maintaining a dwelling for the manufacture of a controlled substance.

Tzeo's wife and her three children were found dead in their Conover home in March. Investigators have said they think the killings were related to drug trafficking, and a suspected opium trafficker wanted in the slayings shot himself to death after a police chase in Utah.

Authorities have said they do not think Tzeo will be charged in the deaths.
