Crystal Lake’s 62 Million Internet Prescription Doc Not in Prison Yet

There was a small article in the Chicago Tribune Thursday concerning the increase in the misuse of prescription drugs by teens.

It was the bottom of four stories on a page with mainly advertising.

It reminded me that no Chicago area newspaper has run an article on the 46-year old Crystal Lake physician named Michael Millette. He illegally wrote 62 million internet prescriptions.

Wouldn’t you think 62 million internet prescriptions would be newsworthy?

An internet site that can be found in this January 17th McHenry County Blog article says the University of Illinois College of Medicine graduate practiced emergency medicine in Woodstock and McHenry, as well as other locations.

You can find Millette's name on the U.S. Bureau of Prison's web site, but he's not behind walls yet.

More at McHenry County Blog, the site that stays awake over the weekend.
