Summary
This is the jaw-dropping true story of how a pain clinic empire spiraled out of control — started by someone with no medical background, fronted by a dog as "medical director," and driven by staggering amounts of cash and chaos. From childhood trauma to repeated arrests, shady operations, and a nationwide pill pipeline, this is an inside look at America’s pill mill crisis — and how it all came crashing down.
