"You are speculating perhaps he didn't take it all," Samuel said of the medications found in Chua's home after Carter's death.
All the chart showing prescriptions written to Carter from Chua from Sept. 22, 2005 until his death about three months later illustrates is drugs prescribed to the victim, not actually taken, Samuel said.
No empty hydrocodone pill bottles were found in the house, but two hydrocodone pills that didn't come from prescriptions filled at the Wal-Mart pharmacy were found in a bottle that was supposed to contain methadone, Mitchell testified.
Other pain medications not prescribed to Carter by Chua were also found in incorrect containers in the house by investigators. Mitchell said the medications didn't come from his store and he didn't know who prescribed the drugs.
Testimony was expected to continue about 11:30 a.m., after a short break.

So, if this kid is getting drugs from all over the place - why is this doctor being held accountable. I'm sure the doctor told him not to take any other pills besides the ones he just prescribed. Now he're hearing that this kid may have shot them up and committed suicide. This poor doctor has been railroaded - probably to get his money! I feel sorry for him.
