Trauma Surgeon Dr Sam Christian has cleared the air on the drug charges which were levelled against him. According to media reports in Ohio, the allegations occurred from December of 2009 until May 2011 and involved the controlled substances methadone, Xanax, Methylin and alprazolam. The charges were dropped in February 2013 but according to a release from the Seneca County Prosecutor’s office in Ohio, the indictment was dismissed to allow additional time for the State Pharmacy Board to work with the prosecutor’s office on retaining a new physician to review medication records and to serve as an expert witness in the case. The release said the expert witness who had been retained for the case was diagnosed with liver cancer and would be unable to testify. This left open the possibility that the charges could be reinstated in the future. However Christian has described the charges as racially and politically motivated.
