According to the criminal complaint, the victim waited two days before seeking medical attention and died four days after the attack. An autopsy determined his death was caused by complications of the stab wound and ruled it a homicide.

The plea deal in the case led to the dismissal of a felony assault charge connected to the stabbing. It also resulted in the dismissal of multiple felony drug charges against Emmons, including a charge involving the alleged sale of methamphetamine in Olmsted County.
