NY Pharmacist gets 4 year prison sentence

Pharmacy of  Convicted Pharmacist

According to the feds...Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, announced that LILIAN JAKACKI, a/k/a/ “Lilian Wieckowski,” was sentenced today by U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff to four years in prison for illegally distributing 100,000 tablets of oxycodone, Medicare fraud, and money laundering.  JAKACKI pled guilty on July 28, 2016, before Judge Rakoff.
Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said:  “Through her pharmacies in Queens and Brooklyn, Lilian Jakacki dumped 100,000 illegally diverted oxycodone pills into the City’s streets.  Driven by greed, Jakacki abused her pharmacy license, helping to fuel the opioid abuse epidemic that is ravaging too many of our communities.  For her crimes, Jakacki will spend four years in prison and forfeit her ill-gotten gains.”           
According to the allegations in the Indictment and the civil Complaint, and other information in the public record:
Between in or about March 2010 and October 2015, JACKACKI owned and operated two pharmacies in Queens and Brooklyn doing business as “Chopin Chemists.”  During that time period, at these pharmacies, JACKACKI knowingly distributed approximately 100,000 tablets of oxycodone based on fraudulent prescriptions, including prescriptions made out in the names of famous luxury brands, such as Coach and Chanel.  In addition, JACKACKI used the proceeds of that illegal narcotics trade to help finance the purchase of a multimillion-dollar home.  Finally, JACKACKI deliberately overbilled Medicare by more than $500,000, submitting reimbursement claims for medication that she never actually distributed to patients. 
In addition to the prison term, JACKACKI was also directed to forfeit $800,000 and to pay restitution of $520,000.  " 

What was this person thinking , that she would never get caught? Obviously, her money was her drug and she was blinded by it. She will now pay a heavy price for breaking American law.

Will she end up in a camp? Depends on her security level and record of violence, if any. Most likely, she will do her time in a camp.
