Witmer pleads guilty

Published reports state Dr. John Witmer, arrested last spring along with Seldon and Eric Ledford and Ryan and Ardena Dailey, has pled guilty to the fourth-degree crime of maintaining false medical records. The Ledfords and Daileys earlier reached an agreement with the New Jersey attorney general on different charges that will result in each being fined and placed on a one-year probationary period, and Witmer will likely also receive probation and a fine of up to $10,000.

Witmer reportedly admitted in court Wednesday he billed for a medicine different from the medicine he had lawfully prescribed and dispensed, but did not receive payment on the bill.

All five that were arrested also had their racing licenses suspended by the New Jersey State Racing Commission. The commission has proposed settlements on those suspensions and the terms of such are still being negotiated.
