The indictment, filed in the U.S. District Court in Fort Myers, Florida, charges Harwin for participating in a criminal conspiracy with a competing oncology group in Collier, Lee, and Charlotte counties (Southwest Florida). Beginning as early as 1999 and continuing until at least 2016, Harwin and his co-conspirators entered into an illegal agreement to allocate medical oncology treatments, such as chemotherapy, to FCS and radiation oncology treatments to a competing oncology group. The conspiracy allowed FCS and the competing oncology group to operate with minimal competition in Southwest Florida and limited valuable integrated care options and choices for cancer patients. The Antitrust Division and FCS resolved the charge with a deferred prosecution agreement, under which the company admitted to conspiring to allocate treatments for cancer patients and agreed to pay a $100 million criminal penalty. The charge in the indictment carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $1 million fine for individuals.

It is for the Huskies, who return senior standouts at all offensive skill positions after a school-record five wins last season.

The Southland Conference would require only once-a-week testing, but the Huskies have to follow the rules of their opponents' conferences. So it's a lot of different emotions, and certainly more running the gamut than in a normal year," North Texas athletic director Wren Baker said.

FCS and its co-conspirators agreed not to compete to provide chemotherapy and radiation treatments to cancer patients in Southwest Florida. This conspiracy allowed FCS to operate with minimal competition in Southwest Florida and limited valuable integrated care options and choices for cancer patients. FCS has agreed to pay a $100 million criminal penalty the statutory maximum and to cooperate fully with the Antitrust Divisions ongoing investigation. For almost two decades, FCS and its co-conspirators agreed to cheat by limiting treatment options available to cancer patients in order to line their pockets. The Florida Office of the Attorney General separately announced today that, in connection with its own independent investigation, FCS agreed to settle civil claims that it violated Florida antitrust laws.

SAN ANTONIO – The Incarnate Word Cardinals were one of college football's biggest turnarounds last season, going from a moribund 1-10 record in 2017 to a 6-5 ledger, Southland Conference championship and FCS playoff bid in 2018.
