RYE, N.Y. – A Rye pharmacist is being sued for negligence in the death of a St. John’s University graduate student, who worked as an extern at his pharmacy and was exposed to a dangerous drug his first week on the job.
James Yoo, 22, was last seen by workers at Rockwell Compounding Associates putting away inventory, including fentanyl – a powerful painkiller. He was later found collapsed on the floor, the family’s lawyer Joshua Grobber said, citing the police report.
