NBC gives money to a drug addict to reveal how easy it is to buy drugs

Dr. Sober Companion was featured this morning on the #1 morning show in the USA, NBC The Today Show, in a special story called: "Undercover: Prescription meds in Hollywood". The video is available online from NBC entitled: "Undercover: getting drugs in Hollywood". The description of the segment on the NBC site is "Video: TODAY examines how easy it is for people with cash to get drugs."

Here is an accurate account of what really happened:

NBC was looking online for a well known sober companion with celebrity clients, that would agree to come on the NBC today show, without mentioning his own clients, but mentioning insider information about drug abuse by the rich and famous.

After NBC read the dr. sober companion blog, NBC was convinced they had found the right sober companion. "the today show" producers contacted us first via email.

NBC was only to happy to interview Dr. Sober Companion and some of his staff, and at first discussed sending one of my staff undercover to a medical doctor's office to get the same pharmaceutical prescription drugs that celebrities like Michael Jackson, heath ledger, lindsay lohan and britney spears got. (It was now revealed that Logan is an actual drug addict and alcoholic named david lerman, and was never employed by dr. sober companion, regardless of his expertise in his own drug addiction, or ability to score prescriptions for the highest paying TV producer or for his own drug addiction)

By sending in a pseudo enabler or entourage of a celebrity, they wanted to demonstrate how celebrities obtain and continue their drug addiction, without ever setting foot in a medical office or hospital until being admitted for the morgue and autopsy like Michael Jackson or Heath Ledger.

What NBC and the Today Show was asking for, was to much for Dr. Sober Companion to participate in. This may have cost the jobs of some of my employee's who NBC managed to convince to continue the undercover sting. (It was wrong for NBC to compensate david lerman, a drug addict for scoring drugs)

While they still courted david lerman who acted as my staff for the undercover sting, they no longer needed the dr. sober interview, nor did they want to hear my views. The promises made to dr. sober by NBC today show producers, about using screen shots of my blog, never materialized. David lerman, who acted as my employee who conducted the undercover sting for NBC, whom I believe was seduced by the NBC producers with an enormous amount of cash, to get the job done. Lerman told me, he had pleaded with NBC to keep something about Dr. Sober, and got them to promise to place the blog website under my name as a condition for his participation.



What NBC learned after reading my blog was that david lerman who acted as my employee is a drug addict, and that he was so good at talking to doctors because he is a professional patient, who also moonlights as a patient surrogate by the local medical colleges and has been a lab rat for experimental drug trials.

He has also been featured on the insider as the celebrity pop culture expert on celebrity drug addiction.

David Lerman posing as fake patient

Before the NBC fake undercover patient exited the building into the cameras view, he was able to pocket small amounts of medications that the doctor gave as samples, and also hold onto a few choice prescriptions he did not include in the undercover interview. He was also able to hold onto the refills for the prescriptions that were paid for by NBC.

What NBC "The Today Show" did wrong was pay for a doctors visit for a drug addict, and enable a drug addict with his favorite prescriptions, and allowed him to sample a few prescription drugs he had never tried before. (NBC reported the drugs destroyed)

Dr. Sober Companion stated in an earlier post that he would never work against the health industry he is a part of, and is not into this form of crusading to try to destroy medical doctors who over prescribe the drugs of choice of celebrity drug addicts and non celebrities who have the money to see their doctor when their schedule permits and pay for their own prescriptions to avoid scrutiny by the health insurance companies. This should be left to medical licensing boards and proper government bodies, and not to a TV network who places peoples lifes in danger.

My battle is not with the medical profession but rather with the pharmaceutical industry who systematically produce addictive drugs that are far worse than nicotine in the tobacco industries battle to keep people addicted until their horrible and painful deaths. Someone could start out with a pain killer pharmaceutical prescription for a controllable relief of pain after a surgery and become addicted for life.

A child could easily find a pescription pill bottle in their house and experiment with addictive prescription drugs. Would that be child endangerment by the parents, or would the pharmaceutical industry be to blame?

The truth in addictive prescription drugs is:

The medical doctor never made the drug addictive.

The medical doctor didn't pay the super attractive pharmaceutical rep to convince the medical profession, individually to push the drugs.

The medical doctor didn't convince the FDA to approve the pharmaceutical medications.

The medical doctor did not convince insurance companies to add the drug to their health insurance policies.

The medical doctors did not produce free sample coupons.

The medical doctor did not place ads in magazines and on TV.

Although as NBC uncovered, the medical doctor does benefit from the $5,000 cash office visit for the wealthy drug addicted patient.

Michael Jackson - Bombshell discovery in drug addiction by dr sober companion and the today show on NBC

Michael Jackson Bombshell discovery in drug addiction by dr. sober companion and the today show on NBC.

How does Dr. Sober Companion know so much about dead celebrity drug addicts like Michael Jackson, Heath Ledger, and living celebrities headed down the same road of self destruction?

As part of the dr sober project, Dr. Sober Companion wanted superior intelligence to always know the latest trends in drug and alcohol addiction, drug addicts drugs of choice, how they are administered and hidden (i.e. trans dermal patches, puffers, asthma inhalants), doctor shopping, pharmacy shopping and how celebrities find their doctor feel goods.

Dr. Sober Companion hired a special staff with superior knowledge to be able to infiltrate high end rehab programs, AA (12 step) meetings, NA (12 step) meetings and report back to dr. Sober Companion. Because we are located in Los Angeles, we are living in the same "inner circle" as the Hollywood elite.

Another Dr. Sober Companion Bombshell about enablers and 12 step.
Dr. Sober Companion is not behind the 12 step "group" approach, nor is he behind over glorified luxury hotels or mansions parading as rehab centers, where addicts learn from each other.

Dr. Sober Companion is about total abstinence from drugs and alcohol, and complete removal from enablers old and new. You cannot remove enablers if you place the client with a brand new "group" of enablers.

Another Bombshell is knowing that these meetings of addicts are like a prep school for learning to be a better drug addict. Where they learn from their new best friends the latest techniques, better highs through experimental drugs, best doctors to visit and total cost involved, best pharmacies and drug stores, which symptoms go with which prescriptions. Cheapest generics of a drug addicts favorite prescriptions. This is where a drug addict goes to graduate to the closest they have ever been to death from addiction. Those that survive an overdose, return for a refresher course through the revolving door.

After reading the dr. sober companion blog at www.dr-sober.com, NBC "the today show" producers contacted us. NBC was only to happy to interview Dr. Sober Companion and some of his staff.

By sending in a pseudo enabler or entourage of a celebrity, they wanted to demonstrate how celebrities obtain and continue their drug addiction, without ever setting foot in a medical office or hospital until being admitted for the morgue and autopsy.

Dr. Sober would never work against the health industry he is a part of, and is not into this form of crusading to try to destroy medical doctors who over prescribe the drugs of choice of celebrity drug addicts and non celebrities who have the money to see their doctor when their schedule permits and pay for their own prescriptions to avoid scrutiny by the health insurance companies.

While many news sources were fishing for prescription drug abuse from the michael jackson entourage, they were asking people like personal trainer to michael jackson, mr. Lou Ferrigno, who would not have been famous as the muscular green hulk, if it were not for his very own drug addiction to steroids. (steroids)

What NBC and the Today Show was asking for, was to much for Dr. Sober Companion to participate in. This may have cost the jobs of some of my employee's who NBC managed to convince to continue the undercover sting. We will know for certain only after the segment airs. (The TV segment is now questionable whether it airs or not?)

Unfortunately, some of the dr. Sober Companion staff became users of the latest pharmaceutical drugs and replacement therapies themselves.

While Dr. Sober Companion was never a drug user and never a drug addict or alcoholic, some of the staff was not as strong, and gave in to temptation.

Some of the dr. sober companion staff were hired because of their previous addiction and knowledge to penetrate all levels of defense and road blocks, to enter the "inner circle" of the celebrities world of drug addiction.

We never recruited clients or staff during our investigations, because that would compromise our project.

While dr. Sober Companion did not previously perform drug testing of his staff, as a tribute to the honesty and character of his special investigative employees, they stepped forward in admitting their drug and alcohol use.

Because of the type of help dr. sober companion provides on a 24 hour 7 day a week basis, dr. sober companion demands abstinence from drug and alcohol (but not of sex), of his sober companions, staff and the same for his clients.

Those special force of investigative employee's were never involved with direct care of clients, and they will continue their duties to reveal and uncover the latest trends in drug and alcohol abuse.

New clients come from several sources including TV appearances, website, satisfied client referrals, professional referrals by medical doctor, DUI Lawyer's amongst other legal means to save the clients life. We are very concerned and devoted to giving the highest degree of anonymity to the client.

Dr sober companion may not be available for interview.

why does debbie rowe want restraining order from michael jackson father joe jackson?

Because of the death of Michael Jackson, the truth is unraveling about years of child abuse by Michael Jackson's father Joe Jackson. The same man that was recently seen as more concerned with promoting a new record label then mourning his son's death at the BET awards, and the next morning in a press conference.

Dr. Sober Companion is disgusted at this parents actions.

The child abuse sometimes starts with emotional or physical abuse or both, and continues with maybe the worst form of child abuse of them all; "enabling".

Dr. Sober Companion continues to see a pattern of child abuse and enabling by parents and its growing worse every day.

The parents are sometimes the worst enabler in the entire entourage. The parents and the entire entourage are all enablers, whom love their meal ticket, have become accustomed to their new comfort level and would not want to jeopardize that sweetened financial arrangement by the parent actually speaking out against the destructive behaviors of their children.

What is an enabler?
Destructive behaviors that could cause the demise of the meal ticket such as drug addiction, alcoholism, self mutilation, must not be scrutinized, chastised or told to refrain from by the entourage if they want to continue their good lives. They see it as a fun roller coaster in a theme park, that they want to ride as much as they can, until the park closes or the host of their fun expires.

Why do the children need a restraining order from Joe Jackson?
While in the current Michael Jackson children situation, it is entirely possible that being awarded custody by Debbie Rowe, might really be because Debbie Rowe is less concerned about the possible threat of child abuse of Michael Jackson's 3 children by their grandfather Joe Jackson, and more about getting a monthly living expense, not currently accounted for in Michael Jackson's will. While Debbie Rowe has already been given her payoff for what she was hired to do, that appears to not be enough. (It will be interesting to know who is giving her advice and who she will show up to court with?)

The fact that Debbie Rowe wants to separate the 3 children, and only take Paris and Michael Jr., is criminal in itself for the psychological damage that comes with separating children of a recently deceased family member. This action of separation, could be enough to drive the children into psychological damage for life.

Even if Debbie Rowe proves through DNA testing that she is the biological mother, she only gets Paris and Michael Jr., while the true damage is in separation of the 3 Michael Jackson Children.

While I only speculate about Michael Jackson, we now have proof via Debbie Rowe, that Joe Jackson is toxic. Why else would Debbie Rowe seek a restraining order to keep Joe Jackson away from the children?

Please save your child's life.
With all the damage that parents can do to their children by enabling out of selfishness, it becomes clear that the most damage can come from parents. Dr. Sober Companion takes ALL enablers out of the equation. Dr. Sober Companion's goal is to keep his clients alive by removing enablers.

Talk to your children!
Are you an enabler? Please tell your children the truth no matter what the outcome is in your entourage status. At least you will be able to live with yourself, and your children might even surprise you by actually listening.

Dr. Sober Companion is Dr. Rob Tencer DC, BS

The parents of michael jackson are using doctor conrad murray as the fall guy?

Dr. Sober companion was reviewing the many articles of the doctor who was with Michael Jackson when he died. Dr. Sober companion wants to know why is this doctor so important in the death of Michael Jackson, when there were so many warnings and many more people to blame?
This is not a conspiracy theory, but proof that enablers can ruin a life.

In a strategic communications or damage control move by someone hired in the michael jackson camp, (perhaps his parents), the deflection of guilt has begun for the death of a famous drug addict, even more famous than heath ledger. How long have they been planning this charade?

Dr. Conrad Murray was selected by michael jackson and paid by his concert promoter Randy Phillips, president and CEO of AEG Live, the company promoting Jackson's tour. The perfect fall guy to take the blame for the death of michael jackson. A doctor with a past of money problems and legal issues easily reviewed by the internet or a simple credit check. (or a team of nearly out of work reporters, fighting to keep their jobs)

What fan of Michael Jackson would not want to work with an icon? Dr. Murray was easy to obtain and manipulate. Dr. Murray needed the money and made a deal with the devil, that would cost him his license and his dignity as a human being.

For this fall guy to refuse all that was promised to him, was far to much to turn down. He was bought and paid for, and this alone is why he should not be to blame. It is true that Dr. Murray, was Jackson's physician for three years, but even with a history with Michael, the drug addiction started before michael found the latest in a line of "yes" doctors. Dr. Murray surely made the wrong choices and will suffer everything that comes along with those life decisions.

We know Michael had a drug addiction because of a lawsuit in 2007 between Mickey Fine Pharmacy in Beverly Hills vs. Michael Jackson for allegedly not paying a pharmacy bill grand total: $101,926.66. Mickey Fine Pharmacy in Beverly Hills sued Michael Jackson, claiming he agreed to "pay the purchase price of any prescription medications filled." We have the news reporters to thank, for uncovering this fact.

It was also reported in the news, that the concert promoter took several massive insurance policies out on the chance the tour would be canceled. The insurance company required medical physicals before agreeing to insure AEG.

The concert tour promoter Randy Phillips, president and CEO of AEG Live, said that sometime in February 2009, Michael Jackson submitted to "five-plus hours of physicals that the insurance underwriter insisted on. The concert promoter was told Michael Jackson passed with flying colors."

If anyone did more than a 5 hours battery of medical physicals designed to detect health problems, drugs in the system, severe weight loss or needle pricks from the daily or hourly injections of a full blown addict and then cleared the patient, you would have to say the physical exam was a joke.

Michael Jackson, in poor health and highly addicted to drugs would have certainly tested positive to real tests and should have failed the exams. Do you really think this can be blamed on a single doctor, and not a larger entity of people? Its like saying Madoff did it all without knowledge of anyone else in his company.

What other medical doctors and labs were part of this scam? You would have to also blame the medical lab and even the phlebotomist who drew the blood and urine samples, and whomever was involved in this scam to hide the true health of Michael Jackson.

Randy Phillips said AEG Live held multiple insurance policies covering cancellation of the shows. If the truth is uncovered about the true health of the drug addict Michael Jackson, then Randy Phillips and AEG wil never collect.

Dr. Sober Companion does not see how the parents are not to blame for creating what michael jackson became.

You as a parent can turn your childrens life around before its to late, remove the enablers from your childs life, and save their life. You want to help your children don't you? Dr. Sober Companion is here to help save your child's life. Dr. Sober Companion is beyond reproach. If you are the enabler of your child, then your child is in big trouble. Just look at what happened to Michael Jackson as a reality check.

will damage control hide what drugs were in michael jackson system

Strategic communications (damage control) expert Michael Levine was once hired by michael jackson, no doubt for damage control. Who will cover up the drug use now that michael jackson died of over prescribed pharmaceutical medications? Besides demerol, what else was michael jackson addicted to?

Will the parents go after the doctor? What licensed doctors will lose their medical license over michael jackson's death?

In a recent poem by Alex Balk, he wrote:

“Who killed Michael Jackson?”
“I,” said the Doctor,
“From my needle he got that last Demerol shot.
I killed Michael Jackson.”

The truth of the matter is, you don't need to be michael jackson to die of over prescribed medications. You don't need to be michael jackson or a celebrity to be addicted to drugs.

parents care enough to sue the doctor that over prescribed and killed their son

Sober companion like dr. sober companion is a parent who is sickened by childrens addiction to drugs prescribed by a licensed medical doctor. Sometimes the drug addictions lead to death.

Parents around the world are witness to their childrens addiction to drugs. Its not the parents fault for placing their trust in a licensed medical doctor who destroy families.

Sometimes the guilty doctor takes the blame for over prescribing pharmaceutical medications like Percocet, Oxycontin, Xanax and Lorcet to a parents child who eventually became addicted to them. This addiction to drugs caused a mental illness that made the victim kill his wife and child.

It should not only be the doctor to blame but the pharmaceutical companies who produce the drugs. What do you think?

Don't you think its time for dr. sober companion?

The following article appeared in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Thursday, June 11, 2009
Family sues wrestler Chris Benoit’s doctor
Wrongful death suit filed in federal court in Newnan
By MEGAN MATTEUCCI

A Carrollton doctor who prescribed drugs to professional wrestler Chris Benoit should pay for the lives of the wrestler’s deceased wife and son, the victims’ family says.

On Wednesday, the family filed a wrongful death suit in U.S. District Court against Dr. Phil Carroll Astin III and three unnamed drug distributors.

The suit claims the doctor and distributors prescribed drugs that caused Benoit to strangle his wife Nancy and smother 7-year-old son Daniel inside their Fayette County home in 2007.

Astin is now serving a 10-year prison sentence for illegally dispensing drugs.

Astin’s lawyer, Natasha Perdew Silas, could not be immediately reached for comment.

The suit claims that Astin prescribed painkillers, steroids and muscle relaxants to Benoit from June 2000 to June 23, 2007 – the day Benoit killed his family and then hanged himself.

The suit alleges that Astin has a responsibility to monitor Benoit and warn him of the side effects of the drugs. The suit also includes an affidavit by a veteran Long Island sports medicine doctor, who reviewed Benoit’s medical records.

The physician, Dr. Gary Wadler, found that Astin prescribed Benoit the medication without proper diagnosis or monitoring. The drugs ultimately caused Benoit’s “mental, physical, emotional and/or behavioral health to deteriorate to extent he killed” his family, Wadler said.

“It is my opinion, to a reasonable degree of medical certainty and medical probability, that Astin was negligent in his care and treatment of Benoit,” wrote Wadler, a member of the World Anti-Doping Agency’s board.

The suit seeks financial damages to cover the “full value” of the deceased lives, along with money for pain, suffering and expenses. The suit requests a jury trial.

Nancy Benoit’s parents, Maureen and Paul Toffoloni of Florida, filed the suit in U.S. District Court in Newnan. The Toffoloni’s handle Nancy and Daniel Benoit’s estate.

Earlier this year, Astin pleaded guilty to writing 175 illegal prescriptions for 19 patients, including two that died of drug overdoses. Federal prosecutors argued that Astin illegally prescribed drugs such as Percocet, Oxycontin, Xanax and Lorcet to professional wrestlers who eventually became addicted to them.

Rehab does not work says a British TV show

If you watch TV shows like Dr. Drew's popular rehab show, you know everyone on the show relapses. Celebrities relapse all the time. Does this mean that rehab does not work? My feeling is that when you stick an addict in a room full of enablers, they have one subject on their mind. It does not matter if you are an alcoholic or drug addict, you become a power addict with help from your new best friends.



Unfortunately for the person trying to quit, they are with experts who will teach them tricks to hide and continue being a drug addict and or alcoholic that they never would have dreamed of by themselves. Like a room full of cooks, giving each other cooking tips. This is a recipe for disaster.

The same holds true for AA meetings as well. Look who your company is with.

edie sedgwick tells how she was drugged and raped

Young women like poor little rich girl Edie Sedgwick sometimes use poor judgement in whom they trust. By allowing themselves to be drugged and raped, young women sometimes are so high on prescription drugs, or drink to an alcoholic level, it makes themselves easy prey for criminals who want to have their way with your daughters. Watch a short clip from Edi Sedgwick, (who died of drug overdose)who tells of her experience of being drugged and raped, and helpless to do anything as she lay there paralyzed from the drugs given her.



Will you allow your daughter the freedom of drugs and alcohol, without a sober companion to stop her, protect her, and save her life?

Dr. Sober is disgusted by these criminals and wants to help you with your daughter who seems out of control.

david hasselhoff and others need a sober companion at all times to save themselves from suicide

David Hasselhoff was rushed to the hospital this weekend after his 16-year-old daughter Hayley found him passed out on the floor of his home. Hasselhoff had a .39 alcohol level and was barely breathing when they got him to the hospital. No word on his current condition yet.

The message to david hasselhoff's children is clear. Alcoholics need a sober companion at all times. Especially those with the means to pay for it.

Its clear that this man has no limits on the amount he drinks, and is headed for suicide if a sober companion is not hired immediately.
