In this episode we discuss the wild life and times of Dr. Leonard Faymore. He was a doctor in Elyria, Ohio who assisted in starting a drug rehab clinic but it quickly went wrong. Faymore quickly developed a reputation as a drug dealer rather than a rehab clinic. Addicts would line up at 4am to get a number to wait in line and the parking lot would devolve into an open drug den. The story gets really crazy when the DEA raid his castle and then the fun begins. Tune in and find out what happens!
