A 72-year-old Florida doctor is accused of running a pill mill and dealing in narcotics and opioids throughout the state.
The investigation began in February 2021 after receiving complaints from several pharmacists about large amounts of oxycodone being prescribed.
And why did it take so long to figure out?
ReplyDeleteThe same reason LEO constantly bust people coming from "known drug houses" and such.
DeleteAt 72 ya gotta build up that 401K some how.
ReplyDeleteAt one time the panhandle of Florida was a pill mill meca. There were vans of people from Alabama and Mississippi going to Florida every Friday to these doctors..... Scripts for Oxycodone was what they were going for and from what I saw they never came back empty handed

He had to know he would get caught. Is he just old and senile or I wonder was somebody black mailing him or could extortion have been at play.
ReplyDeleteShe, the doctor is female

Pill mill. Pretty much describes them all. Just a matter of different scripts.
ReplyDeleteAt least her customers didn't have to worry about their stuff being cut with rat poison or talcum powder.

I hear federal prisons are pretty plush - maybe that was her retirement plan.
ReplyDeleteAfter my back surgeries I had one of those. I would sit in his office & watch the parade of dope heads coming & going. Sitting there one day the Feds took him away. Got a referral to a Dr in Alabama & before I could move there the feds took that one too. That was 20yrs ago.
ReplyDeleteStinkin' narc Pharmacists.
ReplyDeleteWhat gets me is that fentanyl coming over the border doesn't get anyone's britches in a bunch.
