BATH, Maine — Police on Thursday arrested a Florida man who allegedly acquired drugs from local pharmacies with forged prescriptions.
Raymond N. Rondeau, 41, of Pompano Beach, Fla., faces felony and misdemeanor charges of acquiring drugs by deception.
Bath police Lt. Stanley Cielinski said Detective David Beauregard, the Bath Police Department drug investigator, made the arrests. Beauregard was still working on the case, Cielinski said.
Rondeau had appeared with the forged prescriptions at Walgreens and CVS, Cielinski said.
The felony charge would be connected with a narcotic such as OxyContin, while the misdemeanor would be for other drugs, Cielinski said.
This Floridian isn’t so bright.
You can a get a legal scrip for this poison in Florida
all day long.
Particularly on the east coast.
Get a legal script for this stuff in most every state, in fact. Would it surprise ya to know that the company that makes all the oxy-based drugs is right in CT? Purdue Pharma made a 16 billion dollar profit on these drugs last year. Took a drug that’s been around for decades, polished it up, brainwashed and/or bribed lots of doctors and spread this stuff coast to coast. Not smuggled across borders by shady characters or cooked up in labs in the woods — made in the USA. Great, eh?
Bunch of druggies live in Bath
Bath is quickly turning into Lewiston. So sad to see the town I grew up in, turning out like it is.
Just for yucks, that last name sounds a lot more Canuck than anything else. Just gonna run around ME where people know each other — and the doctors most of the time — and hang bad scripts. FAIL.
