COWETA COUNTY, Ga. (MyFOX Atlanta) -- Dr. Phil Astin, 52, from Carrollton has entered a guilty plea to 175 counts, charging him with illegally dispensing prescription drugs from 2002 until his arrest in 2007.

Wow, at first I thought you were talking about Oprah's buddy. I was thinking that the WWE was getting really desperate and bringing in Dr. Phil to discuss Orton's IED.
Anyway, I wonder how long this doctor will go away for?

Anyway, I wonder how long this doctor will go away for? First of all, that was hilarious about Dr. Phil. Second, he probably won't get that long since he made a plea deal. |

Second, he probably won't get that long since he made a plea deal. i agree i was thinking what Dr.Phil had to do with the WWE.LOL but i doubt that he will get many years. unless Beniots family decides to really fight him. wonder if the WWE is going to do anything? |

I think the max sentence he could receive is 20 years, but I'm sure that time was negotiated down as part of the plea.
Benoit's family/WWE really doesn't have anything to do with it now. The Benoit's could possibly bring a civil suit, but that's about it.
