LEBANON — A Morrow woman was indicted for doctor shopping to illegally obtain pain killers.

The Warren County grand jury handed down an 11-count indictment against Heather Dawn Walker, 36, of 1583 E. U.S. 22/Ohio 3, Morrow, for deception to obtain dangerous drugs, on Dec.12.

According to Warren County Prosecutor Rachel Hutzel, between June and September, Walker allegedly visited four doctors and obtained the drug Ultram.

"That's called doctor shopping," Hutzel said.

Ultram is a pain killer that is considered a dangerous drug, but isn't as powerful as OxyContin Hutzel said.

If found guilty, Walker faces up to a year in prison and a $2,500 fine.
