On November 14, 2018, Dr. John A. Glenn, Jr., and Dr. Mark Griffis were sentenced in U.S. District Court, Dublin, Georgia, for their roles in a conspiracy to falsify records with intent to impede the proper administration of DOT. Glenn was sentenced to 15 months' incarceration, 3 years' supervised release, a $3,000 fine, and $4,900 in special assessment and court costs. Griffis received a sentence of 30 months' incarceration, 3 years' supervised release, and a $6,000 fine. Glenn was indicted in March 2018 and pleaded guilty in May, and Griffis was convicted by jury trial in June.
DOT-OIG's investigation revealed that Glenn and Griffis routinely signed DOT Medical Examiner's Certificates and Medical Examination Reports for commercial driver's license holders without examining the drivers.
DOT-OIG and the Drug Enforcement Administration are investigating this case, with assistance from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.
