Mike Fasano: State Should Seize Pain Mill Operator Assets
Submitted by Kevin Derby on February 21, 2011 - 10:06am
Sen. Mike Fasano, R-New Port Richey, is looking to subject the assets of convicted pain mill operators to the Florida Contraband Forfeiture Act.
If the rules and regulations that Florida has put into place have not scared off pill mill operators, passage of this law will, said Fasano on Monday.Failure to register as a pain clinic will allow law enforcement to impound all assets of the pill mill. Without the building, land and equipment needed to operate, the pill mill operators will shut down and leave the state.
Fasano proposed to send the seized assets into the Crimes Compensation Trust Fund.
