A California doctor has been charged with murder in the deaths of four patients, authorities said, accusing him of over-prescribing opioids and narcotics.

A California doctor was charged with murder in the deaths of four patients, authorities said, accusing him of over-prescribing opioids and narcotics.

California Attorney General Xavier Becerra said the doctor prescribed addictive drugs -- including Vicodin, oxycodone, OxyContin, Percocet and morphine -- at"dangerously high levels," contributing to the ongoing opioid crisis nationwide. The charges stemmed from an investigation of the attorney general office's Bureau of Medi-Cal Fraud and Elder Abuse, which investigates cases of abuse, neglect and fraud against elderly and dependent adults in care facilities.
