Ex-Regulator Loses Law License

The former counsel and executive director of West Virginia's Board of Pharmacy has lost his law license, The Charleston Gazette reports.

William T. Douglass Jr. saw his license revoked after pleading guilty to falsifying records at the board before his February 2007 firing.

"Investigators said Douglass double-billed the agency for thousands of dollars of expenses that were covered by other organizations," the article said. "In addition, Douglass had aspirations of becoming a sports agent. He tried to run his unsuccessful business - called Douglass Sports Negotiations, or DSPN - out of the Board of Pharmacy, sometimes billing the agency for conference rooms in a Morgantown hotel where he met with prospective clients."
