Oh my word not even just the last name but the whole name. When I first
read your message I thought surely just the last name. It's funny but not
funny oy I hope you don't get any wayward related calls or correspondence
(laughs).

It's never a good thing to see your name in the news. However, the name
of the pharmacist in the following article is about all I have in common
with this individual. As far as I know, we're not related.

New Jersey Pharmacists Charged in Illegal Opioid Distribution Scheme
NOVEMBER 16, 2016
Jennifer Barrett, Assistant Editor
Two pharmacists are being accused for their roles in a long-running,
illegal prescription pain medication distribution conspiracy. Michael
Ludwikowski and David Goldfield ran the alleged scheme at Olde Medford
Pharmacy and Medford Family Pharmacy in Medford, New Jersey.
The men are accused of dispensing large amounts of prescription
painkillers to customers with fake prescriptions and individuals whom
they knew to be addicts. According to the US Attorney’s Office for New
Jersey, Ludwikowski and Goldfield allegedly filled fraudulent
prescriptions for some customers multiple times a week, and also
accepted cash payments and gifts of pornography and alcohol.
Additionally, 3 men have admitted to filling fake prescriptions at the
store, and 2 men have also admitted to attempted extortion of the
pharmacists.
The indictment also alleged that some prescriptions were blatantly
washed or bleached through a chemical process that removed original
writing for a non-narcotic substance. Customers rewrote the
prescriptions for multiple prescription opioid pain medications, and
brought them to the pharmacy to be filled. Ludwikowski and Goldfield
allegedly sold bottles containing between 100 and 120 oxycodone
30-milligram tablets for $190 in cash.
Ludwikowski is being further accused of deceiving a national distributor
of painkillers into providing large quantities of oxycodone, morphine,
and other prescription drugs from March 2008 through August 2013.
Ludwikowski and Goldfield were both charged with 16 counts of conspiring
to distribute oxycodone and other prescription painkillers, as well as
maintaining a drug-involved premises and multiple substantive counts of
illegal drug distribution. Krystal Wood, a former pharmacy technician at
the pharmacy, pleaded guilty in April 2015 to dealing prescription
painkillers from the store.
