Parole panel weighs new Gotsis evidence in second hearing
A second parole hearing for former doctor George Gotsis was set for today at 3 p.m. before the Ohio Adult Parole Authority. Gotsis, 53, is serving a 5 to 25 year term in Columbus for illegally prescribing drugs to undercover narcotics agents.
