The Payton stuff is more questionable, as omitting him from the DEA report could be considered perjury and may open an investigation into why he had so many pills without a prescription or a condition necessitating their use.
Do we know for sure that Payton didn't have a prescription? I haven't seen that anywhere.

I'd have trouble digging up an article supporting that because we only have what has been leaked so far, NOT the actual complaint or any evidence.


The allegations, as I recall from early articles, were that "Employee A", Payton, was in the drug log as having a large number of pills but no scrip for them or a condition necessitating their use.

"Employee B", Vitt, was in the log for having a large number of pills as well but had a scrip for them because of a chronic pain condition.

The evidence doesn't suggest he did.

tigerbait3488 hasn't shown back up since we put him in his place Saturday. I'm sure he is just a clerk acting like he's important.

Hey guys, I wonder if we're focusing on the wrong thing.

Payton's involvement, Vitt's theft - all problems or potential problems, no doubt, to whatever degree of severity.

If any law schoolers want to help me out here - isn't the really big problem, the reason this really stinks so bad, the cover-up? I'm pretty sure THAT's what stinks so bad.

Just a kinda sorta similar example - martha stewart wasn't screwed b/c of the insider trading, it's because she lied about it. Or Barry Bonds (please don't think I'm comparing this issue in more than just one way to these cases) it wasn't the drug use, so much as the LIE to COVER UP the story, right?

So again, I am only comparing these cases in ONE way - the fact that the COVER-UP is what caused the most legal trouble, makes sense? ignore drugs, ignore inside info, ignore everything else, but focus on the COVER UP - that's the biggest LEGAL problem right?

Law schoolers, jump in, I'm pretty sure this is really the biggest legal problem here. What do you guys think? Everything else could be big problems themselves, but the cover-up, in my opinion, is the biggest legal issue BY FAR!

By the way, if you read the complaint filed by the former security guy, the thing really is the cover up, that he was asked to lie about the issue, which is a felony, and that's why he resigned, his whole complaint revolves around being asked to commit a felony, which it technically (unavoidably) is. Thoughts?

Vitt and Payton are pills poppers. Vitt stole his, Payton received his w/o a script, and Loomis tried to cover it up. Hopefully this all will get settled civily.

Yeah Vitt and especially Loomis are the only ones that could potentially be in real trouble. Vitt got caught stealing 3 times and Loomis might have have tried to cover it up

Although when you actually read it, it says Loomis went to the guy about possibly covering it up and he told Loomis he'd be crazy to do that because its a felony. Loomis decided against it and reported what happened to the authorites, who have supposedly known about this for about a year.
