BOSTON, Jan. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Shares in Insys Therapeutics ("Insys" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: INSY) are down over 31% since their opening price on December 3, 2015, following a series of investigative reports issued by the Southern Investigative Reporting Foundation ("SIRF"), entitled "Murder Incorporated".
Today, SIRF posted a new report entitled "The Brotherhood of Thieves: Insys Therapeutics" which details additional efforts taken by "executives at Insys Therapeutics … to pressure its employees to develop new ways to mislead insurance companies into granting coverage to patients prescribed its drug Sybsys, even as the Food and Drug Administration's Office of Criminal Investigations issues a stream of subpoenas to former employees." The SIRF report includes an audio recording of what purports to be Insys executives admitting the use of dishonest techniques in the submission of prescriptions to insurance companies.
