The role fake Viagra played in a 70-year-old Miami doctor losing his license

What a Miami doctor did with fake Viagra earned him a little prison time and his license revoked by the state of Florida. Dr. Hugo Romeu, 70, wasn't a Viagra user, at least not in this case. Romeu was a seller and what he sold was a counterfeit version of the erectile dysfunction drug. That's not a crime. Hiding that what you're selling is a counterfeit version counts as a crime.

How the sale of Miami hospitals is involved The indictment in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Georgia says Romeu bought faux Viagra out of Hong Kong. Romeu's guilty plea says he then created a false 'transaction statement,' dated Oct. 25, 2016 that said his Georgia-based company Pharmrce bought 100 bottles of actual Viagra from Santa Ana, California's McGuff Company. This statement went to a Pharmrce customer in Brunswick, Georgia, thus the location of the indictment. 'First: [Romeu] knowingly created a false product tracing document concerning the prescription drug Viagra,' his guilty plea said. 'Second: [Romeu] provided this false document to his customer. Third: [Romeu] did this with intent to defraud and mislead.' Romeu pleaded guilty to failure to comply with a product tracing information requirement. He was sentenced to four months in prison, $171,835 in restitution. He was released on May 7, 2021. READ MORE: Could illegal butt lifts get a Miami plastic surgery center suspended again? Romeu's professional discipline history Romeu had been licensed in Florida since Aug. 16, 1993. His previous troubles hinted at similar dishonesty as his Viagra shenanigans. Back in 2006, the Florida Department of Health said he provided no records for 101 child patients for whom he billed Medicaid. Of the 146 pediatric patient records he did send, only 'a small number' had parent or guardian information. Florida's Board of Medicine fined Romeu $10,000; ordered him to pay $6,722 in case costs; take two continuing medical education classes; and do 50 hours of community medical service.

Barcelona could terminate forgotten veteran's contract similar to Clement Lenglet

Oriol Romeu has returned to FC Barcelona following a season-long loan at Girona – the very club he left back in 2023 to join the La Liga champions. Romeu did not feature in Hansi Flick's plans and returned to Montilivi last summer, where he had previously excelled under Michel, to compete in the UEFA Champions League. Advertisement However, the midfielder did not reach the level that he had shown at Girona back in 2022/23, which helped him earn a move to Barça. Now, at 33 years of age, Romeu has returned to the Blaugrana, with one season remaining on his contract. Contract termination an option for Romeu According to SPORT, Barcelona could explore the possibility of mutually terminating Romeu's contract – similar to the arrangement recently reached with Clement Lenglet. The French defender, who still had two years left on his contract, was paid a small compensation of around €1.5 million and handed a letter of freedom, allowing him to join Atletico Madrid for free. Advertisement And Barcelona could revert to a similar strategy with Romeu, although, unlike Lenglet, the veteran midfielder currently does not have any confirmed offers. What next for Oriol Romeu? (Photo by) So far, Romeu has not spoken with either Deco, Barcelona's sporting director, or head coach Hansi Flick. He is awaiting news, as well as a possible meeting between Deco and his agent, Magic Diaz, to determine his future. The 33-year-old is aware, however, that there is no space for him in Flick's squad, with the midfield already well-covered by Frenkie de Jong, Pedri, Marc Casado, Gavi, Marc Bernal, and even Eric Garcia, whom the German has used as a No. 6. Advertisement Romeu, who has previously played in the Premier League for Chelsea and Southampton, would prefer to remain in Spain. However, before considering any offers, he wants to understand Barcelona's intentions. It is expected that the situation will be resolved before the start of the pre-season next month. If not, Romeu could begin pre-season preparations under Flick on July 13 while awaiting an update on his future.

Teen's surprise mid-flight Moana performance goes viral, sparking mixed reactions online

A video of a teenage girl's impromptu mid-flight performance has taken social media by storm, leaving many travellers divided over what is (and isn't) acceptable behaviour at 30,000 feet. Brazilian content creator Romeu shared the now-viral clip on TikTok, capturing the teen's heartfelt performance of How Far I'll Go from Disney's Moana. The girl is seen belting out the popular children's song into the plane's PA system, turning the cabin into a captive audience, whether they liked it or not. 'When your Delta flight is delayed 2 hours and you circle Orlando for another 2, but then a little girl sings Moana on the crew mic and suddenly everything feels okay,' Romeu captioned the video. While the TikTok creator loved the performance, others online are ready to activate airplane mode on the teenage girl. 'This is actually my worst nightmare and personal hell,' one user commented on the viral video. 'Imagine you finally get your baby asleep and this happens,' another unimpressed viewer said. 'She's a good singer ok, that I will admit, but NOBODY wants to hear a 12yr old singing Moana when all they're trying to do is get to where they need to go. It's not cute, it's not whimsical and joyous, it's just inconsiderate and embarrassing,' wrote another. Some questioned the teen's parents for letting their daughter take centre-stage in the aisle. One user wrote, 'No hate to the girl, but the PARENTS should know how to read a room. Not everything should be centred around your child. She isn't Moana, life isn't a Disney movie.'

‘Nightmare': Simple flight act leaves social media divided

Frustrated frequent flyers didn't quite get a fairytale ending. Travelling with kids can be a challenge, but for some, being stuck on a delayed flight with a kid singing Disney songs through the aircraft's intercom is torture worse than violent turbulence. A flight, which was delayed by two hours, before being forced to circle Orlando for an additional two hours, has gone viral after Brazil-based content creator Romeu shared the clip of the tween's performance of How Far I'll Go from the Disney film Moana. While plenty of people were prasing the sweet scenes, there were plenty more who appeared to believe it was a fate worse than death. 'This would send me over the edge,' one person commented beneath the trending clip. Video of the chaos has scored more than 1.8 million TikTok views. The viral visuals, shared by Romeu, a Brazil-based content creator, featured the tween's controversial crooning on the flight — which was delayed by two hours and then was forced to circle Orlando for two additional hours before landing. 'This is actually my worst nightmare and personal hell,' an equally unimpressed onlooker ranted, referring to the little princess's impromptu performance. 'I would cry tears of anger,' wrote another. 'Absolutely zero hate to this girl but major side-eye to her parents,' a separate naysayer said. 'Even if it were a professional singer, I do not want to be subjected to a concert without consent.' When on a flight, folks barely want to hear you speak. Bobbi Storm, 36, a Grammy-nominated gospel singer, was nearly booted off a 2023 Delta flight when she refused to stop performing her new single — which she insisted was just her 'doing what the Lord is telling me to do.' And Taylor Swift fanatics irked a plane-full of peeved people with their rendition of the pop star's Bad Blood during a Southwest Airlines flight out of Colorado that same year. Footage of the ill-fated singalong scared up 1.7 million TikTok views from annoyed online audiences. 'I would have to ask to be put on a different plane,' one commenter crowed. 'I just wanna fly, not listen to a bunch of women sing.' But when it came to the mini Moana wannabe on Romeu's Orlando flight, a handful of cyber spectators did indeed appreciate the gal's sweet sounds. 'She's actually really good!!!!' wrote an emphatic fan. 'I think it's cute considering it's a flight to Orlando,' another agreed. 'Probably full of kids anxious to get to Disney.' 'I would've sung with her,' added a supporter. 'I love Moana.'
