Terrence Kyle Tackett, 49, of Florence, Ky., pleaded guilty to one count of obstruction of a criminal investigation of health care offenses. U.S. District Court Judge Allison D. Burroughs scheduled sentencing for Sept. 14, 2016.
From 2012 to 2013, Tackett worked as a sale representative in Kentucky for a California-based healthcare company, and from August 2013 to February 2015, he worked for a Massachusetts pharmaceutical company. During that period, Tackett gave medical professionals gift cards and personal checks in exchange for ordering or prescribing the products he promoted. During a January 2015 meeting with investigators, Tackett falsely denied and attempted to conceal the kickbacks he paid to physicians and their staffs.
The charging statute provides a sentence of no greater than five years in prison, three years of supervised release, a fine of 250,000 and restitution. Actual sentences for federal crimes are typically less than the maximum penalties. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors."
