PALMERTON, Pa. - August 21, 2013

Police say Dr. Jack Manzella wrote illegal prescriptions for oxycodone to co-defendant, Robert Kosch, out of his clinic in Palmerton, Carbon County.

At one pharmacy alone, prosecutors say the pair obtained more than 10,000 pills in less than a year and a half.

Manzella is home in Allentown after posting bail.
