Woman Accused of Forging Prescription

A Bradford woman accused of trying to get about 60 more prescription pills than her prescrption was written for has waived her preliminary hearing.

25-year-old Corrie Nortum went to Ott & McHenry Pharmacy on August 3 with a prescription for 76 Tylenol 3 pills, but pharmacist Betsy Dolan Eschrich called police because she thought it had been changed from 16 or 18.

Nortum told Police Officer Dave Feely she didn’t know how the prescription got changed. Feely called physicians assistant Christian McMongial, who said the amount on the prescription was “definitley not 76,” and that he doesn’t issue more than 20 pills at a time.

Nortum is free on her own recognizance.
