LA County Prosecutors To Receive National Award

  :lol: :lol: :lol:  lolol/

Next Tuesday, my friends and colleagues at the Center for Lawful Access and Abuse Deterrence (CLAAD, @claad_coalition) will recognize Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorneys David Walgren and Deborah Brazil for their excellence in the prosecution of Dr. Conrad Murray.  CLAAD is a national coalition dedicated to preventing prescription drug diversion, misuse, and abuse.

CLAAD will commend the LA County prosecutors for their national leadership in implementing the policy recommendations set forth in the National Prescription Drug Abuse Prevention Strategy (of which I am a primary author).  The National Strategy urges prosecutors to exercise moderation and to analyze facts in prescription drug cases from a medical perspective.  Some 30 non-profit organizations have endorsed this year’s National Strategy.

CLAAD will issue a news release on Tuesday, Jan. 17.  If you are interested in obtaining information about the award before then, please e-mail info[at]claad[dot]org.

Thanks for sharing this with us. I think this is proof that the court proceedings were real.

By the way - those two did a great job and deserve the award.

Blessings.

Funny considering Propofol is not a prescription drug.

[loyalfan]

so does this mean we were wrong

[bec]

Propofol is not a prescription drug, loyalfan. Think about it. Why would the Center for Lawful Access and Abuse Deterrence, a national coalition dedicated to preventing prescription drug diversion, misuse, and abuse, be rewarding Prosecutors for convicting a man for administering a non-prescription drug?

Oh, it isn't? So it's an over-the-counter drug? Try asking for it at your local drugstore.

It's neither. Do some research.

Maybe you should do some more research. It's not a controlled substance, and that's probably what you mean. Of course doctors "prescribe" it, only that you usually get it at a hospital for surgery or for sedation in intensive care, etc., so you don't get a prescription and then go to the pharmacy to get it yourself, only doctors and hospitals can order it. That is also why it's not a "controlled substance", because only doctors and hospitals can buy it.

Oh, and before I forget ... Murray also gave Michael other drugs like Lorazepam, Valium, and Midazolam in high doses and the cause of death was "acute propofol intoxication in combination with the contributory effects of benzodiazepines".

Propofol is not prescribed nor is it controlled. It is not a prescription drug and it is not a controlled substance and it is not an over the counter drug either. It is considered "medical supply" like any other anesthetic agent. Do not profess to know what I know.

"Propofol is a sedative-hypnotic prescription medication that is widely used in anesthesia, long-term sedation, and conscious sedation."
