A Bath Township woman, accused of calling in her own prescriptions to an area pharmacy, faces felony charges.
Tammy L. Coffee, 43, was arrested at her home Sept. 11 on a charge of deception to obtain a dangerous drug. She appeared in Akron Municipal Court on Friday and is awaiting action by a Summit County grand jury.
Police said Coffee was working as a billing clerk for a Medina doctor between June 2007 and May 2008 when she called in prescriptions to Giant Eagle Pharmacy, 3750 West Market St., using the doctor's prescribing information.
Coffee allegedly told police she used her husband's name as well as her own to call in more than a dozen prescriptions for Tylenol with codeine and Hydrocodone.
