Mark Crumpacker was arrested in July on several counts of misdemeanor cocaine possession stemming from a white-collar customer and delivery service bust by the Manhattan District Attorney.
Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Ellen Biben asked Crumpacker if he “knowingly and unlawfully” had the popular party drug on Jan. 29, as charged in the second count of his indictment.
He paused and answered “yes” as Biben warned him that to benefit from the deal, he must pass regular drug tests, continue treatment and avoid being rearrested.
Prosecutors said Crumpacker, the colossal burrito company's chief marketing and development officer, was caught on wiretap 13 times ordering coke to his apartment near Union Square.
“We're very happy the case will ultimately be dismissed,” Crumpacker's lawyer Gerald Lefcourt said outside the courtroom.
Crumpacker, who wore a grey blazer and dark jeans, said he was “absolutely” glad to put the case behind him. He was arrested in July and was on leave from his job for months following the bust.
A Fox Business Network producer and a Cushman & Wakefield employee were among those netted in the investigation. Accused drug peddlers in the operation were also charged.
