CBS are reporting: Riverside Podiatrist Indicted In $15M Drug Scheme
Quote:
(AP) RIVERSIDE, Calif. A Riverside podiatrist is among five people indicted in North Carolina on charges related to a $15 million scheme that provided powerful prescription drugs to thousands of customers nationwide.
The indictment alleges that between 2002 and 2006, 38-year-old Christopher Otiko and the others conspired to use false prescriptions to distribute powerful and addictive prescription painkillers and anxiety medications.
The government says the so-called prescriptions were actually drug orders with a photocopied doctor's signature, and were issued after a telephone conversation with the customer.
