Dr. Seth Fishman, veterinarian to Jorge Navarro and many other trainers, was convicted in U.S. District Court in Manhattan last week on federal charges that carry a sentence of up to 20 years. Dr. Fishman will be sentenced on May 5.
The Florida veterinarian was guilty of “conspiring to violate adulteration and misbranding laws and the manufacture of performance-enhancing drugs at tracks (PEDS),” reports Past the Wire, by a jury of eight women and four men.
