CASPER, Wyo. (AP) - A Casper doctor who is accused of selling prescriptions for painkillers is set to go to trial with his wife and accused partner this fall.
KTWO-AM reported Tuesday (https://bit.ly/2kmrE9l ) that Dr. Shakeel Kahn, his wife Lyn Kahn and Paul Beland are scheduled to go to trial on Oct. 2 for charges connected to an alleged drug ring.
The couple is accused of selling prescriptions for large amounts of opioids and anti-anxiety medication to people who did not need the drugs, but filled the prescriptions and sold the drugs on the street.
Last month, a federal grand jury handed down a 21-count indictment that includes charges of operating a continuing criminal enterprise and drug charges.
