In most physician prosecutions for treating pain or addiction, there is never any actual evidence of criminal intent. Just the nebulous argument that a doctor “ignored the risk of overdose,” “ignored the risk of addiction,” or performed “an insufficient medical exam.” I have a big problem with these because the doctor didn’t ignore anything in about 80 percent of the cases I evaluated. Indeed, the DEA had to lie to a doctor to get a prescription. Usually, they send in a compromised patient, but sometimes an actual agent. The first, knowing their freedom, depends on somehow incriminating the doctor; the other is well-trained in deception. Both are willing to lie to the doctor to get what they need.

But the finding is the latest see-saw of scientific evidence on the risk of depression and suicide tied to the popular medications — and critics say evidence that the drugs cause problems with mood is limited.
