An Arlington physician has been sentenced to 12 years in federal prison for fraud and drug crimes, announced U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas Chad Meacham.
In July 2021, a federal jury convicted physician Clinton Battle, 69, of one count of conspiracy to distribute controlled substances and one count of distribution of a controlled substance. In a separate proceeding later that month, the defendant pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit mail fraud. He was sentenced Thursday by U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman, who also ordered him to pay $376,368 in restitution.
