MEANWHILE THE DEA ONLY CAPTURES 2% OF THE ILLEGAL HEROIN & FENTANYL COMING INTO THE USA, THE REAL PROBLEM! DOCTORS & PHARMACIES DON'T SHOOT BACK EASY TARGETS

-Despite frequent robberies and burglaries of pharmacies, doctors' offices, and warehouses where prescription medications are stored and sold, the DEA has focused a troubling amount of time and resources on the prescriptions issued by practicing physicians. It's easy to see why. Doctors keep records. They pay taxes. They take notes. They're an easier target than common drug dealers. Doctors don't shoot back and Doctors also often aren't aware of asset forfeiture laws.

-A physician's considerable assets can be divided up among the various law enforcement agencies investigating him before he's ever brought to trial.

-Over the last several years, hundreds of physicians have been put on trial for charges ranging from health insurance fraud to drug distribution, even to manslaughter and murder for over-prescribing prescription narcotics. Many times, investigators seize a doctor's house, office, and bank account, leaving him no resources with which to defend himself.

-Even if criminal charges are never filed a police dept can still bring a civil action against a suspected medical professional to recover the cost of an investigation.

The big problem is that the DEA can never win the War on Drugs. There is no one single enemy and there is no single leader with which to do battle. Take out one drug lord and there is always someone waiting in the wings to step into their shoes. Heck, there are times when it is two or even three somebodies waiting. The lure of easy money to be made by selling illegal drugs is huge. The large amounts of cash generated mean the drug dealers can arm themselves with machine guns and automatic weapons. It is a dangerous job trying to stop the flow of drugs across our borders and within our cities.

The War on Drugs is failing and, in an effort to justify its continued existence, the DEA changed course in the early days of the Obama Administration. It started to focus more on prescription drugs and their abuse. Coke and heroin are still problems on our streets, but instead they have chosen to go after people who don't shoot back: people who are in the business of treating those of us who live with chronic pain.

95% of all illegal prescription drugs sold on the streets come from thefts from pharmacies, warehouses and trucks. So only 5% comes from illegally diverted prescriptions. With those figures, you would think the DEA would target the thieves, but nope. They don't bring in cash and lots of it. They go after doctors. Some doctors who ran and do run pill mills. These doctors are very few and far between. But yet the DEA still go after Doctors and capture 2% of the illegal Heroin & Fentanyl flooding the USA.

Is it because the DEA got some terrible ratings and possibly would lose government funding that they decided it was easier and more lucrative to go after Doctors & Pharmacies, instead of going after street dealers and the cartels? The DEA contends that they only go after the really egregious cases, but the evidence doesn't support that.

Treating Doctors as Drug DealersThe DEA’s War on Prescription Painkillers

Due to bad press, the DEA needed to find anew front for theWar on Drugs, one that could produce tangible, measurable results.

The DEA’s Diversion Control Programis also a self-financing, autonomous law enforcement agency that is largely unaccountable to congressional oversight.

The DEA’s painkiller campaign has resulted in the pursuit and prosecution of well-meaning doctors. It has also scared many doctorsout of pain management altogether, and likely persuaded others not to enter it, thus worseningthe already widespread problem of undertreated or untreated chronic pain.

The most obvious (though least likely)course of action to address these problemswould be for Congress to end the costly,regrettable War on Drugs. Barring that, thebest way for law enforcement officials to bat-tle the problem of diversion would be tocombat the theft of the drugs from ware-houses, manufacturing facilities, and enroute to pharmacies. More importantly, theDEA, DOJ, Congress, and state and localauthorities should end the senseless persecu-tion of doctors and allow them to pursuewhatever treatment options they feel are inthe best interests of their patients, free fromthe watchful eye of law enforcement.
