Feb. 11, 2022 – A doctor known for his expertise in treating alcoholism and drug abuse faces decades behind bars after he was convicted of helping bilk insurance companies out of millions of dollars.
Dr. Mark Agresti was one of four defendants accused of using a sober home in West Palm Beach, and the people receiving treatment there, to make millions.
