Seven Defendants Charged in Federal Court, Over 20,000 Pills Distributed<br />
ALEXANDRIA, VA. &#8211; 2014-04-07 —An oxycodone distribution ring operating in northern Virginia has been dismantled as conspirators plead guilty and are sentenced.<br />
Dana J. Boente, Acting United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia; Valerie Parlave, Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI’s Washington Field Office; Michael L. Chapman, Loudoun County Sheriff; and Colonel Edwin C. Roessler, Jr., Fairfax County Chief of Police, made the announcement.<br />
According to court documents, members of the conspiracy illegally produced fraudulent prescriptions for 30mg oxycodone pills using a variety of sources in Fairfax, Loudoun, and Prince William County. The conspirators supplied their own identities, and those of family members and others, to the leaders of the conspiracy to create fraudulent prescriptions. The leaders used those identities to create fraudulent prescriptions, and they paid individuals to act as runners to fill the false prescriptions at various pharmacies. Each runner subsequently returned the filled illegal prescriptions, usually containing 60 to 120 oxycodone pills, to the leaders for distribution.<br />
The leaders of the conspiracy typically gave the runners approximately 10 to 15 of the pills as payment, and the conspirators sold the remaining pills for approximately $30 to $45 per pill. The investigation has identified over 20,000 pills distributed through the conspiracy, and about a quarter of the prescriptions were paid for by privately or publicly funded insurance programs.<br />
The following defendants have been charged in this matter:</p>
