Last year, the Office of the Special Narcotics Prosecutor for the City of New York made big headlines. Not only did the office announce, alongside state and federal law enforcement partners, the arrest of more than a dozen people who were allegedly part of a wide-ranging pill mill run out of two doctors’ offices in Brooklyn. They also ensnared a recently departed member of the New York State Assembly, Alec Brook-Krasny, for allegedly helping doctors scrub urinalysis tests of incriminating results as part of the scheme.

That was last April. Since then, the office has faced headwinds in the early stages of the sprawling case that involves over 400 charges against 12 defendants, ranging from commercial bribery against Brook-Krasny to Medicaid fraud against the doctor at the center of the alleged scheme.
