White seeks parole review over Gotsis release shock
Lorain County Prosecutor Gregory White said he will ask the Ohio Adult Parole Authority to reconsider the shock parole decision for Dr. George Gotsis, a Lorain doctor serving 5 to 25 years for nine counts of illegally filling prescriptions. He may be paroled on or after July 2 after serving less than a year. White called the plan wrong and vowed to file motions. Local residents and former patients voiced support, calling it a godsend for South Lorain’s Hispanic and Black communities who felt underserved. The Medical Board will decide whether Gotsis may practice after parole. hearings have been paused amid the criminal case guidance from federal agencies. The February 1983 court actions and the Ohio Supreme Court ruling on Gotsis’ conviction are noted.
