New Request In Limbaugh Drug Probe As reported by Law.com, a state prosecutor in Florida returned to court this week seeking permission to issue more subpoenas in the investigation into whether Rush Limbaugh illegally purchased thousands of prescription pain pills.
Palm Beach County State Attorney Barry Krischer asked for an order permitting him to subpoena Limbaugh's physician, Dr. John Murray, and Murray's employees for testimony in connection with Limbaugh's alleged illegal purchases.
A source close to the investigation said prosecutors are looking for a signed statement from Limbaugh to Murray promising that if the doctor prescribed painkillers for him, including Oxycontin, in quantities sufficient to control his pain, Limbaugh would not try to obtain more prescription pills from other doctors. Prosecutors say Limbaugh obtained medication from other doctors as well.
