Physician Lea Ann Marlow pleads guilty to conspiring to illegally dispense oxycodone
LEXINGTON, KY. — A physician who practiced at pain clinics in Kentucky and Southern Indiana is facing up to 71 months in prison after pleading guilty to conspiring to dispense oxycodone pain pills that weren’t for a legitimate medical purpose.
Lea Ann Marlow will be sentenced in September.
New Albany is a state of mind … but whose? Since 2004, we’ve been observing the contemporary scene in this slowly awakening old river town. If it’s true that a pre-digital stopped clock is right twice a day, when will New Albany learn to tell time?

"Physician Lea Ann Marlow pleads guilty to conspiring to illegally dispense oxycodone."
My acquaintance with Dr. Marlow isn't deep. I remember her vaguely as a senior in high school during my substitute teaching days 30 years ago, and she went along on one of my guided European tours in 1999. When we moved into our house, her office was two doors down. Now she's facing jail time. I find the story quite sad, that's all. Just that: Sad. The screaming skulls can have their feast, and will, but surely there must be a pathway to redemption in all this? Let's hope.
