Vet Sentenced For Stealing Drugs From Workplace

(Portland, OR) -- A Portland veterinarian has been sentenced for diverting drugs for her own use. The Drug Enforcement Administration says Dr. Brenda Brown-Carlson used saline to dilute three controlled drugs after keeping some of the drugs for herself. It caused 200 animals at two veterinary clinics that received the drugs to get less medication than was intended. Surveillance video recorded Brown-Carlson doing the transfer. She pleaded guilty and was sentenced to five years of supervised probation. During that time she can't work as a veterinarian and can't treat any animals.
