Doctor's Orders

"I know everything. What do you want to know?" Andrew "Chef" Glick sits in a candle-lit tattoo parlor getting his Pagan's Motorcycle Club tattoo covered up with orange and red flames. As he surrenders to the pain, Chef tells one of the most dramatic crime stories of the last twenty years: the 2012 murder of radio host April Kauffman near Atlantic City, NJ. April's husband Jim, a respected endocrinologist, secretly wrote illegal opioid prescriptions for the Pagans, and later hired Chef's mentor in the club, Fred "Miserable" Augello, to kill his wife. But for five years no one questioned Dr. Kauffman or his Pagan co-conspirators. Finally, a new detective pressured Chef to commit the ultimate sin: wearing a wire on his Pagan brother.

Are they that dumb?

Using Chef as a go-between, Dr. James Kauffman offers Pagan's leader Fred Augello $50,000 and unlimited Oxycontin prescriptions to murder his wife, April, who is suing him for divorce. Against Chef's Advice, Fred subcontracts the job to a junkie, Francis Mulholland. April's daughter is certain that Dr. Kauffman is responsible for the murder, but no one questions him.
