Former nurse sentenced for selling oxycodone

BECKLEY, W.Va. — A former Raleigh County nurse will spend three years on probation and perform 100 hours of community service after using her position to illegally obtain oxycodone that she later sold.

Crystal Gail Graham, 38, of Beckley was sentenced Wednesday in U.S. District Court.

She plead guilty last November to a charge of obtaining oxycodone by misrepresentation, fraud, forgery, deception and subterfuge while working as a licensed practical nurse at Beckley’s Jackie Withrow Hospital.

Graham has since been fired.

She sold the oxycodone to an informant working with the Raleigh County Sheriff’s Department.
