Alleged pill-mill doctors arrested and charged with racketeering

Two doctors in Florida have been officially charged with racketeering. Pain clinics that the two were a part of in Orange County, Florida were raided last summer after drug enforcement agents confirmed what they believed to be pill mills. Pill mills are often a single link in the chain that leads to the sale of illegal drugs on the streets after doctors prescribe them in massive quantities.

Both physicians have been accused of racketeering and conspiracy to commit racketeering. Along with them are three Orlando, Florida men who were allegedly part of the clinics as well. They are a 65-year-old man and his two sons, ages 42 and 38. They have been charged with money laundering.

Florida woman arrested on drug charges after running for 20 years

Florida residents accused of criminal activity are required to appear in court and face their charges. However, in some cases people facing drug charges or other criminal allegations try to run away and hide in another state or in some cases, in another country. In an effort to try to retain their freedom, some individuals suspected of a crime even try to change their ID to hide from the law. These people, living on the run, face the difficult and stressful road of never knowing when they might be discovered.

Several weeks ago, a 61-year-old Florida woman who appears to have been living on the lamb, suddenly resurfaced. Approximately 20 years ago, the woman had apparently been accused of operating a drug smuggling ring involving $200 million worth of illicit substances. She and her associates were accused of bringing marijuana and cocaine into the United States from Jamaica and Colombia. The woman's boyfriend was captured in France some time ago, and other people involved in the alleged drug deals were captured and have already completed their jail time.
