An Oklahoma jury convicted Antonella Carpenter, former owner of purported cancer treatment clinic
Lase Med Inc., of committing a fraudulent scheme claiming to cure patients’ cancer. According to the evidence, Carpenter, who is a physicist and not a medical doctor, orchestrated a scheme to obtain money from cancer patients by means of false and fraudulent representations, including claiming to cure various kinds of cancers, when in fact, she would inject a patient’s tumor with a mixture consisting of saline solution and food coloring or walnut hull extract.
