Doctor Sentenced In Floyd County Case
KENTUCKY....
A former Cincinnati doctor with past ties to an eastern Kentucky drug ring has been sentenced to 48 months in prison. Lloyd Stanley Naramore pleaded guilty to conspiring to distribute methadone. According to a plea agreement, Naramore admitted to providing prescriptions to more than 100 people from eastern Kentucky, although he didn't think the drugs were medically necessary for many of them. He says he did it so he could hang on to his $3,000-a-week job. Naramore was responsible for distributing 50,000 methadone pills that were returned to Kentucky to either be abused or sold. Naramore, one of 22 people charged as part of a conspiracy headed by Timothy Wayne Hall of Floyd County. is the final person to be sentenced in the case.
