Doctor Pleads Guilty to Illegally Distributing Prescription Drugs

The US Attorney’s Office for Nevada says they’ve gotten a guilty plea from a doctor accused of improperly prescribing opioids. 51 year old Eric Math has pleaded guilty to distributing Hydrocodone and Oxycodone, without a legitimate medical purpose in the Reno area between October 2018 and May 2019. He had co conspirators who filled the prescriptions and then sold them. He’s facing up to 20 years and will be sentenced in June.
