A Delaware County doctor is in hot water after a three month-long investigation revealed an alleged "pill mill" being run out of his Media, Pa. practice.
Dr. Lawrence Wean was arrested Wednesday following an investigation into the doctor's practices by undercover detectives from multiple agencies in Delaware County.
Following the three month investigation, it was determined that Wean was operating a pill mill out of his office on Baltimore Pike, where he's been practicing for nearly two decades, said police. He also allegedly wrote prescriptions for cash, according to Delaware County District Attorney Jack Whelan.
Wean was arraigned on multiple charges in a Media courthouse Wednesday afternoon. His bail was set at 10-percent of $500,000. He remains behind bars, unable to post bail, police said.
