Hearing set for men charged in drug ring with Aiken podiatrist
A federal court hearing is scheduled in Columbia for Donald Gibbs II and Harry Bunn III, who pleaded guilty to involvement in an illegal prescription drug ring centered on Dr Mackie James Walker Jr., a 64 year old North Augusta podiatrist. The case stems from a January indictment that accused the group of conspiring to distribute oxycodone, a Schedule II narcotic, with Walker facing related charges. Gibbs and Bunn previously pleaded guilty to a single count of conspiracy to commit a Title 21 offense.
