TUNKHANNOCK -- A guilty plea was entered Friday in Wyoming County by a dentist accused of giving prescriptions for painkillers to family, friends, and associates who didn't need them.

Charges were brought against Dr. Sare Rhodes in May for allegedly prescribing oxycodone to a drug dependent person, and failing to keep proper records.

Rhodes, who is not currently practicing, has an office on North Bridge Street in Tunkhannock.

She is scheduled to be sentenced in December.
