County jail letter/envelope set from the Florida oxycodone trafficking doctor.
This auction is for a letter from Florida Dr. Asuncion Luyao, who had 11 patients overdose while under her care. In 2004, Dr. Asuncion Luyan had a trail that ended in a hung jury. In 2006, the good doctor was found guilty of racketeering, five counts of trafficking oxycodone, and manslaughter relating to the death of one of her patients. She was sentenced to 50 years in prison and ordered to pay over a million dollars in fines. She started her sentence on 6/6/2006. In 2008, Dr. Luyao's sentence was overturned and she released from custody on 12/22/2008. In a plea agreement prosecutors dropped the manslaughter and racketeering charges and all but two of the trafficking charges. She was sentenced to a period of house arrest, barred from practicing medicine, 10 years of probation, and ordered to pay more than $100,000 in fines.
ITEM DESCRIPTION: The missive is two pages on two sheets, dated 5/21/2006, and is signed, "Asuncion." The letter appears much lighter in the scan, so much so you can barely read it! Pop an oxy or two, it will come in clearer. The original mailing envelope is postmarked 5/22/2006. The letter and envelope come inside a protective magazine sleeve with an acid free board and have been stored flat. Message me with any questions you might have. Thanks for having a look-see..
