Man Gets 30 Months For Trying To Return Used Enemas To CVS

A Jacksonville man will spend 30 months in prison for using about 12 enemas and then resealing and returning them to a CVS store in 2012.

Ronald Eugene Robinson, who was 34 when he was arrested last year, was sentenced to prison this week by U.S. District Judge Timothy Corrigan. He had pleaded guilty to product tampering.

His sentence will be followed by two years of supervised release, said U.S. Attorney's Office spokesman William Daniels.

Defense attorney Roland Falcon said his client wasn't trying to hurt anybody. He was doing it because he was in financial trouble.

He pleaded guilty because he originally faced up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine, Falcon said.

Several of the used enemas were resold to unsuspecting customers before the tampering was discovered.
