SPONSORED BY DEFENSE ATTORNEY IVAN ARNAEZ. 
DON’T GO TO COURT ALONE. CALL IVAN ARNAEZ @ 812-424-6671.

On Tuesday, August 18, 2015, members of the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force received information that Mr. Brandon Michael White would be in the area of the Evansville-Vanderburgh County Civic Center. Mr. White was being sought on an outstanding Indiana parole violation warrant.

At 12:30 pm a Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Deputy assigned to the Task Force observed a blue Chevrolet Impala operated by Mr. White circling the Civic Center. The Sheriff’s Deputy attempted to stop the vehicle as it turned into the Curtis Building parking lot. The vehicle then fled east on John Street and ran a stop sign at Governor Street. The pursuing Task Force deputy was joined by a deputy assigned to court security, an Indiana State Police trooper assigned to the Task Force and a Deputy United States Marshal. The fleeing vehicle collided with a box truck that was heading north on Garvin Street.

The impact caused Mr. White to be thrown from the driver’s seat and against the front passenger window of the wrecked Impala. Mr. White was taken into custody without further incident.

The following items were recovered from Mr. White’s vehicle: a fully loaded semi-automatic handgun, over 36 grams of crystal methamphetamine, over 55 grams of synthetic marijuana and other scheduled narcotics.

ARRESTED:

Brandon Michael White, 29, of Evansville. Dealing Methamphetamine as a Level 2 Felony, Dealing Synthetic Drug as a Level 6 Felony, Dealing Cocaine (Oxycodone) as a Level 3 Felony, Dealing Schedule IV Controlled Substance as a Level 6 Felony, Resisting Law Enforcement as a Level 6 Felony, Possession of a Handgun without a Permit as a Class A Misdemeanor, Driving with a Suspected License as a Class A Misdemeanor.

Indiana, 48 States Reach Settlement With Global Pharma Company Amgen For Deceptive Drug Promotion

0

AG Zoeller: $1.3M in settlement funds to be directed to Rx abuse education, awareness

INDIANAPOLIS – Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller announced that Indiana and 47 other states and the District of Columbia have reached a $71 million settlement agreement with global pharmaceutical company Amgen accused of deceptive marketing. As part of the agreement, Indiana will receive $1.3 million, which Zoeller said will be directed toward continued public awareness of and education about prescription drug abuse.

The Attorney General’s complaint that was filed in conjunction with the complaints and consent judgments of the other states accuses Amgen of making misrepresentations and unlawfully promoting two medications, Aranesp and Enbrel, which are used to treat anemia and plaque psoriasis respectively.

“In my position representing Indiana’s consumers, it is important to hold pharmaceutical companies accountable if they are skirting laws in the marketing of their prescription drugs,” Zoeller said. “This major national settlement will help deter future unlawful marketing, and also gives Indiana the opportunity to continue funding critical awareness and education efforts to reduce the epidemic of prescription drug abuse in our state and direct people toward treatment options.”

Zoeller is creator and co-chair of the Indiana Prescription Drug Abuse Prevention Task Force, which is comprised of about 120 members statewide including doctors, pharmacists, health officials, treatment providers and law enforcement all committed to reducing prescription drug abuse in Indiana.

Zoeller made the settlement announcement today at Centerstone treatment facility in Bloomington alongside fellow Task Force members including Linda Grove-Paul, Vice President of Recovery and Innovation at Centerstone.

“Drug abuse continues to ravage too many in our communities and we must do more to raise awareness of the dangers of addiction, the warning signs of abuse and treatment options for struggling Hoosiers,” Grove-Paul said. “Especially with prescription drug abuse, the victims are all around us and need our help.”

Zoeller said the settlement funds will go toward efforts including prescription drug take-back programs, Naloxone (opioid overdose medication) programs for first responders, mental health and addiction treatment services and continuation of the public education program through www.BitterPill.in.gov. More information about the Indiana Prescription Drug Abuse Prevention Task Force and resources for the public are available at www.BitterPill.in.gov. 

Amgen settlement details

The complaints filed today by the attorneys general accuse Amgen of violating state consumer protection laws by:

  • Promoting Aranesp to treat anemia caused by cancer even though it lacked reliable scientific evidence to substantiate such use and despite knowing of studies that found increased death and possible tumor stimulation in cancer patients receiving Aranesp or similar drugs. Aranesp has never been FDA approved to treat anemia caused by cancer. A 2007 study found patients receiving Aranesp for the treatment of anemia caused by cancer had a 28.5 percent increase in death and no significant reductions in transfusions or improvement in quality of life.
  • Promoting Aranesp to treat anemia at dosing frequencies longer than the FDA approved label without reliable scientific evidence to substantiate the extended dosing frequencies.
  • Promoting Enbrel for mild plaque psoriasis despite Enbrel only being approved by the FDA to treat moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

The consent judgments, also filed today, require Amgen to reform its marketing and promotional practices and bar Amgen from making claims that are false, misleading or deceptive in promoting Enbrel or any drug in the same class as Aranesp or representing that these drugs have qualities or benefits that they do not.

Zoeller thanked Deputy Attorney General Luminita Nodit for her work on this case.

In 2012, Indiana reached a separate $793,000 settlement with Amgen for Medicaid fraud and illegal off-label marketing, also involving Aranesp, Enbrel and other Amgen drugs. More information about this prior settlement can be found here.

DON’T SNEER AT TRUMP’S CHANCES

17

Raging Moderate by Will Durst

Yeah, I hear what you’re saying. “For all you political comics, Donald Trump must be a dream come true. Manna from heaven. Slam-dunking from a step-ladder. Swimming in a sea of beer.”

Oh sure, there are jokes.

1. Trump’s presidential campaign is like a baboon’s butt. The higher he climbs, the harder it is to look.

2. Not saying his message is confusing, but doubt he could convince a majority of the voices in his head to vote for him.

3. Trump doesn’t respect gay marriage because of tradition. And the fact that he’s been married three times just makes him… extra traditional.

4. Wants to run the country like a business. Which is worrisome. Because he seems exactly the kind of guy who would burn it down for the insurance.

Don’t forget the aerodynamic coif. But getting an actual handle on the Big El Nino is as difficult as Klingon calculus. How do you parody a parody? Most candidates cling to talking points the way deep sea divers do air hoses, but to a real estate developer, points apparently are to be avoided at all costs.

He’s all over the place: an anachronistic hybrid, tweeting from the Old West. No notes. No Tele-Prompter. No handlers. The focus of a feather. Shooting straight from the hip and the lip. “Mexicans are rapists.” “John McCain is a poseur.” “Megyn Kelly got hormonal.”

Donald Trump vs. Megyn Kelly: now there’s a sequel worthy of Buckley vs. Vidal. Do you get the feeling America doesn’t care who wins this skirmish as long as one of them loses. Hey, just doing good journalism.

Despite more slip-ups than 3rd graders playing Bombardment in stocking feet on a freshly polished gym floor, the New York developer’s approval rating continues to rise like a pastry factory with a leaky yeast valve. If Reagan were Teflon, the Donald is some sort of space age polymer.

But to say that not all is happy-rama in the GOP theme park is similar to intimating that salted caramel cream puffs make inadequate shock absorbers. The exploits of Walker, Cruz, Rubio and Bush are a PBS after-thought to the daily TMZ shenanigans of Mr. Celebrity Apprentice Presidente.

A finite amount of light is available in a primary campaign, and the brighter it shines on a single spoiled trust fund baby, the less luminosity available for the incredible array of governors and former governors running nearby. With the odd senator thrown in. “Odd” being the operative word.

Then consider that each of the semi-normal politicians is being bankrolled by a totally different collection of billionaires and you can see the problem. The obscenely affluent don’t encourage their kind to run for president. Tends to eliminate the middle-men. The rich prefer their office holders beholden. Puppets with strings are easier to control. As the Donald says, “the system’s broken,” and the people agree.

So here’s a tip for all you professional scoffers sneering at Trump’s chances of winning the nomination, and should he pull that off, disparage as laughable the thought of a victory in the general. Just remember… they said the same thing about Ronald Reagan. And we all know how that turned out. Wonder if another Bush could be talked into the VP slot. There’s synchronicity for you.

The “Two Party System” Is Illegal And Our Government Is A Crime Ring

2

A dozen US Presidents have warned us, so we have no excuse. We all know, at the very least, that our government is corrupt to the point that it is essentially owned and operated by a fairly small number of unelected, but very wealthy people. Many people and organizations from a broad political spectrum have demonstrated a direct correlation, if not causation, between campaign donations and legislation, and campaign money and economic inefficiency. Most of us understand that our government is at least to some degree and at some levels, immoral and dysfunctional. But it’s apparent that most people don’t know that not only did our founders warn us against political parties, they also wrote laws in both state and federal constitutions to prevent their entrenchment; and that the self-appointed “Two Party System” is literally and practically therefore, a crime ring.

Only two private clubs, operating under their own rules, yet as a quasi-governing cartel to suppress competition and grant themselves special powers, in violation of both the federal 14th Amendment and the Indiana Constitution’s Article I Section 23, have illegally taken over three estates of civil government – legislative, executive and judicial, at nearly every level of USA government.

I’ve preliminarily documented this here, here, here, here and here (these links copied below in case you receive this as plain text. Other supporting information available upon request).

Only six corporations also now own most of the fourth estate as well. And yet as a former journalist myself, I place more hope in this final branch of civil power than in the courts.

It’s on this hope that I ask you examine my case, and come to your own conclusions.

I’ve been advised that, while my case is rock solid on fact, merit and law, that no court in Indiana, federal or state, would hear my case. It would almost surely be immediately dismissed “with prejudice” as are so many other complaints against our rogue leaders. So I take my case to you.

Please consider the gravity of my charges; and consider that you and your loved ones are also affected by our society’s worst, and potentially fatal problem.
