jacksonville.com on October 13, 2011 reported that a federal indictment unsealed this afternoon charges five Jacksonville doctors, the owner of three pain clinics where they worked and seven other employees in a multimillion-dollar pill mill operation that led to at least one death, records obtained by the Times-Union show. The three-count grand jury indictment accuses the 13 defendants of scheming to profit off patients to whom they sold painkiller prescriptions from December 2009 until late July 2010. The buyers of highly addictive oxycodone and Xanax came primarily from Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee. Many returned home to sell the drugs at a profit for themselves.
