PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - A pharmaceutical company owner accused of illegally marketing and distributing steroids then paying doctors to write medically unnecessary prescriptions will plead guilty, his attorney said Thursday.
Daniel McGlone, who owns New Jersey-based American Pharmaceutical Group, agreed to plead guilty to 50 counts, including conspiracy, health care fraud and money laundering, according to court documents and his attorney Bob Mann.
McGlone is accused of illegally distributing human growth hormone and steroids to body builders in several states, and allegedly got some of the drugs from a Florida-based pharmaceutical company charged by New York authorities in a larger steroid case.
