Steroids case dropped in Florida - Times Union
Federal prosecutors in Florida have ended their years-long criminal investigation of an Orlando pharmacy whose operators also were targeted in a related investigation by the Albany County district attorney's office and several other law enforcement agencies, according to court records.
In memorandums filed in Albany on Monday, and also on Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Orlando, lawyers for the operators of Signature Compounding Pharmacy said federal prosecutors in Florida recently notified them in writing that their office had "closed the matters previously pending against Signature Pharmacy."
Still, the decision by federal prosecutors in Orlando to abandon their probe of the pharmacy's operators may not be the end of their legal troubles. In Rhode Island, federal prosecutors have implicated Signature pharmacy in a case in which human growth hormone allegedly was being smuggled from China to the United States for distribution.
