Pharmacist Charged In Drug Investigation

{Kermit, West Virginia}...Federal prosecutors have asked the court to schedule a plea hearing for James P. Wooley, a pharmacist charged earlier this month with conspiracy to illegally acquire or obtain controlled substances. The charges stem from an investigation of the Justice Medical Complex in Kermit. Federal prosecutors say the clinic's owner and employees used another person's Medicare provider number to distribute Hydrocodone and other controlled substances and directed patients to Wooley's pharmacies in Kermit and Stone Coal.
