The United States Drug Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has launched a criminal investigation into the doctors who prescribed drugs to late iconic singer, Prince who died on 21 April.
According to TMZ, law enforcement executed a search warrant of Prince’s Paisley Park mansion in Minnesota and are conducting the probe under a series of federal laws targeting doctors who sell prescription drugs to abusers especially since Andrew Kornfield, the son of Prince’s rehab doctor, crossed state lines to violate prescription law as he reportedly flew into Minnesota with a backpack full of synthetic opiates and was in the singer’s home when Prince died. Andrew Kornfield is said to be a person of interest in the DEA’s investigation.
Recall that Prince who was cremated shortly after his death was reportedly treated fordrug overdose a few days before his passing as his plane made an emergency landing in Illinois on Friday before he died so could be taken to hospital for a “save shot” typically administered to counteract the effects of an opiate overdose.
