Ex-Wife of Pharmacy Marketer Testifies She Was Paid Lavishly for Doing Nothing

The ex-wife of a pharmaceutical marketer who is on trial in Dallas on federal kickback charges testified Thursday that he put her on the payroll of a Fort Worth pharmacy that paid her extravagantly for work she never did.

Kristin Najarian said her ex-husband, Quintan Cockerell, arranged for her to be listed as an employee of Xpress Compounding, which paid her, in one month alone in 2015, $711,706.47, even though “I wasn’t working there.”
