The front page, of today's local newspaper, detailed the deaths of three young people. According to the paper,the three died within eight hours, of each other. All succumbed to a lethal combination of methadone,xanax, and lortab. The common denominator, a local physician, who had prescribed painkillers etc. The article went on to say, a trio of doctors were being investigated, for overprescribing said drugs. Aparently, this type of death has increased dramatically in the last year. The mayor says the city has declared war, on any and all physicians, guility of this behavior. Names of the three have not yet been released.
This is not a big town. It is disturbing that so many M.D.'s may be involved. This crap is revolting. Doc's complain all the time about drug seekers. It seems as though, these particular drugs have been traced to the source. Wonder of wonders, the guilty party isn't a street thug.
I doubt if anyone of them jumps bail, but I can always hope.
A scumbag isn't always obvious.
