These, of course, are only some of the more known ways in which prescription fraud is committed. It is hard to determine the extent to which this problem has evolved. This is a problem that transcends social class and education, and threatens every household. With the increase in prescription drug availability in the market, it is obvious that prescription fraud will increase along with it. And, as a result, more arrests will be made as long as law enforcement officials are on the lookout for this crisis. Many times, the individual who is facing an arrest for prescription fraud or forgery has never been arrested in their life and the charges are the result of an addition to pain medication from a legitimate injury or medical condition.
Don't spend time in jail if you don't need to.
Even when the evidence is so strong that a conviction is inevitable, our law firm uses effective strategies to minimize the negative consequences. Alternatives to jail or a permanent criminal record may include: Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition (ARD), community service followed by expungement, Section 17, Section 18, and Intermediate Punishment (IP). Many times we can take an individual who is facing these serious criminal charges and avoid the stigma of a felony or incarceration and have them admitted to an alternative disposition program like Recovery Court. If you have been arrested or are under investigation for a drug crime in Pennsylvania, contact the Ciccarelli Criminal Defense Team to ensure your rights are protected.
