The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has arrested a former medical examiner and pathologist after he was indicted on multiple counts of fraudulent activities involving prescription drugs by a Hamilton County Grand Jury.

Dr. Ronald Toolsie, 50, of 2049 Igou Crossing Drive, Chattanooga, was indicted on one count of unlawful distribution of a controlled substance, one count of failure to keep required records of controlled substances and one count of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud on Oct. 28.

Toolsie was an active medical examiner and did not have a medical practice.

TBI opened its investigation into Toolsie’s prescription activities in November of 2006. Toolsie surrendered his DEA registration at that time.

Health related boards suspended his license earlier this year.

Toolsie was booked into the Hamilton County Jail and posted a $5,000 bond.
