PAINTSVILLE, Ky. — More than two dozen law enforcement officers swarmed the Care More Pain Management clinic in Paintsville on Wednesday morning — the second raid in less than a year on a clinic that’s under fire for allegedly doling out prescriptions for narcotics too freely.
Twenty-nine people were arrested outside the clinic, one on a drug-related DUI charge and most of the rest on outstanding warrants, said Dwayne Price, the Johnson County sheriff. The raid was part of an ongoing investigation by Attorney General Jack Conway’s office and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration into doctors who allegedly over-prescribe pain medications.
