Arrested!

Tweet

This might get a little long but I really needed to talk to someone. I'll start from the very begining here. My siser and mother-in-law were both arrested about 2 years ago for prescription fraud. One of them called in some pain medicine, faking a doctor's name and DEA number. When they went to pick it up they were arrested. Since that time my mother-in-law's health has declined and I regularly pick up their medicines since neither can drive, I have been doing this for 2 years now. This morning I get a phone call from my sister-in-law telling me that the doctor had called in some more pain medicine because she is still in pain from having surgery 2 weeks ago. She tells me it is on the other side of town. When I asked her if she could get it transfered closer she said no because it was a narcotic drug. So I drive all the way across town and pull up in the drive-thru and give my sister-in-law's name, they ask for her date of birth and tell me to sign the form stating I picked it up. While getting my driver's lic. out because they asked for that too there is a man in a black cowboy hat, and a vest (looked kind of like a bounty hunter you see on tv) screaming at me to turn my car off. At this point I am not exactly sure what to do, he then flashes his badge and of course I comply. He walks to my car and takes my lic. and my debit card that I was going to use to pay for it. He than tells me he will be walking in front of my car and I am to follow him and if I try to run him over he will shoot my "dumb a$$", he now has his gun pointed at my head through the windshield. At this point I am shaking so hard I can barely follow his instructions but somehow manage. To make a very long story short, I was searched, my car was searched and I was handcuffed. I was taken to the local police station and had to give a written statement that I had not knowledge of what she had done or was doing. Finally I was allowed to leave and they followed me to her house to talk with her. I confronted her in front of the detective and she denied calling in a bogus prescription. The detective told her to shut-up or he was going to haul her a$$ to jail. With everything said and done the detective just called me and informed me that he will need my bank statements showing all the medicine I have paid for. He also informed me that my sister-in-law admitted to calling in at least 25 bogus scripts in the last 2 or 3 months. He has not arrested her yet, said he was compiling a list of places she has used. And informed me someone else had picked up a script this morning from another place that is why they had red flagged her name when I went to pick up another one. The detective has said sorry for pointing a gun at my head.. so I guess all is good with me but I am still shaking. Has something like this every happen to anyone else?
