MS pain cream scheme: Ex-pharmacist Marco Moran going to prison, must pay back millions Lici Beveridge, Mississippi Clarion Ledger
Former pharmacist Marco Moran, one of more than 20 people convicted in a massive health care fraud involving compounded pain creams and other medications, was sentenced Tuesday in federal court in Hattiesburg to 10 years in prison.
He also must forfeit nearly $12.2 million in cash and pay restitution of around $22.1 million and a fine of $20,000.
Moran, 47, was charged in September 2018 to one count of conspiracy to commit health care fraud. He pleaded guilty the same day.
He apologized to the court and the government as well as his children and a grandchild.
