Fayette County Doctor Arrested
WEST VIRGINIA....
Angela Lynn Basham-Calloway, 41, a Fayette County doctor in Oak Hill, has been arrested after allegedly providing a confidential informant with prescriptions for Roxicodone, a generic version of Oxycodone, and Adderall, which is commonly prescribed for children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, in exchange for $800 and some of the drugs. West Virginia State Police in Beckley say they were told that Calloway had been issuing prescriptions in the names of Jack Guy and Danny Clark, who were in on the scheme, but were not Calloway's patients. Additional investigation by the State Police indicates that Calloway has issued fraudulent prescriptions for Adderall in the names of employees in her medicinal practice and their family members, including minor children.
