There’ve been multiple massive (mind boggling scale) arrests and convictions for rx’s of opioids on the DOJ website. Just one articles I’ve seen from the DOJ website:

Since its inception in October 2018, the ARPO Strike Force, which operates in 10 districts, has charged more than 70 defendants who are collectively responsible for distributing more than 40 million pills. The Health Care Fraud Unit, in general, maintains 15 strike forces operating in 24 districts, and has charged nearly 4,200 defendants who have collectively billed the Medicare program for more than $15 billion.
