Williamson Doctor Refuses To Forfeit Seized Money
WEST VIRGINIA....
Federal prosecutors want Dr. Katherine Hoover to forfeit more than $88,000 seized when her Mountain Medical Care Center in Mingo County was raided. The Williamson clinic was shut down in March, when investigators alleged it operated as a pill mill, but no one has been charged criminally. Hoover, who was served with the forfeiture warrant late last month in the Bahamas, where she has been since the raid. denies any wrongdoing and says she'll fight the attempt to confiscate the money. She also continues to argue that the Mountain Medical Care Center was illegally targeted. The $88,029 was seized from a bank account and her Williamson apartment.
