DALLAS (1080 KRLD) - The U.S. Department of Justice is going after two North Texas doctors accused of running a "pill mill" operation.
Federal prosecutors have obtained a temporary restraining order against Doctor Cesar Pena Rodriguez and Doctor Leovares Mendez. They say both of those doctors have been prescribing powerful opioids like hydrocodone without a legitimate medical purpose.
Prosecutors say undercover officers posed as new patients and were able to get prescriptions for cash payments of $250.
