Man Gets 8 Years For Selling Oxycodone

BALTIMORE (AP) -- An Elkton man has been sentenced to more than eight years in prison for conspiracy to distribute oxycodone.

David Graham, 63, was sentenced Thursday in federal court in Baltimore.

According to his plea agreement, Graham and a co-conspirator paid people to go to doctors' offices, get large prescriptions for oxycodone and other pills, and then sell many of the pills they obtained to Graham and the co-conspirator.

Prosecutors say about 1.4 million milligrams of oxycodone was distributed as part of the conspiracy.

Graham is the 15th person convicted in the conspiracy.
