Former medical technician charged with fraud

A Tulsa man is facing counts in federal court including fraud.

The former medical technician has been charged in federal court for allegedly accepting bribes for fraudulently submitting urine specimens for drug analysis.

Federal prosecutors said Thursday that 33-year-old William Ray Allen of Tulsa was charged Tuesday with four counts of honest services mail fraud and three counts of accepting a bribe.

Allen worked at 12 & 12 Inc., a drug treatment facility contracted by the U.S. Probation Office to provide drug testing and treatment services to people under federal court supervision.

Allen could face up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine on each count of honest services mail fraud.

He also faces up to 15 years in prison and a $250,000 fine for each bribery count.

Allen's attorney didn't immediately return a message seeking comment Thursday.
