Diet Pills are Bad – CEO Goes To Jail

Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals President and CEO, Jared Wheat was sentenced 50 months in prision for illegally selling knock-off prescription drugs over the Internet.  Not only is he facing jail and fines, but him and his business companions were demanded to foreit over $3 million from the proceeds of the illegal business transactions.

In the article the drugs that were being sold illegally were generic versions of: Xanax, Valium, Ambien, Vioxx, Zoloft, Viagra and Cialis.  I can’t believe that there are people that will actually buy pills that normally need a prescription from a licensed doctor over the Internet!  Personally, I think that is insane to trust someone online with medicine.
