Cops: Man ODs inside bank with $30K in stolen pawn property

Woman jailed, man found fatally shot at Pennsylvania home

PITTSBURGH (AP) — A former physician who lost his medical license over a sex-for-pills case in 2002 now faces federal prison for trying to obtain explicit cellphone pictures of a 15-year-old girl. Sixty-one-year-old Robert Franzino faces a likely sentence of six-and-a-half years. Prosecutors and his attorney have agreed on the punishment, but a federal judge in Pittsburgh must still approve that when Franzino is sentenced Tuesday. Franzino was arrested by state authorities in March on charges he set up a sexual encounter with the 15-year-old. Federal prosecutors took over the case and charged him with enticing the girl into an underage sexual relationship, which carries a sentence of 10 years to life in prison. Defense attorney Stanton Levenson says Franzino agreed to plead guilty to the lesser related charge in November to avoid a potentially longer sentence.
