A former Midwest City doctor accused of running a pill mill was convicted Friday of one count of second-degree murder in the death of a 21-year-old patient who suffered an overdose involving prescription opioid drugs.
The jurors, after deliberating more than 24 hours, acquitted Regan Ganoung Nichols, a 60-year-old osteopathic physician, of four other counts of second-degree murder in other patients overdose deaths.
Prosecutors told jurors Nichols showed a blatant disregard for life by prescribing hundreds of pills to each victim without a legitimate medical need.
Nichols faces at least 10 years in prison on the single count. Her sentencing will come at a later date.
