Doctor Who Illegally Prescribed Prince Painkillers Before Overdose Pays $30,000 Settlement

(MINNEAPOLIS) — A Minnesota doctor accused of illegally prescribing an opioid painkiller for Prince a week before the musician died from a fentanyl overdose has agreed to pay $30,000 to settle a federal civil violation, according to documents made public Thursday. The settlement between the U.S. Attorney’s Office and Dr. Michael Todd Schulenberg comes as state prosecutors prepared to announce Thursday morning whether they’ll file any criminal charges stemming from their two-year investigation into Prince’s death. Schulenberg is not currently a target of any criminal investigation, federal prosecutors said in a letter to his attorney.
