A radiologist and former U.S. Army officer from Kansas has pleaded not guilty to charges of running a contracting scheme that allegedly defrauded the Army of more than $7 million for medical imaging products and services.
Dr. Heidi Lynn Webster was released on a $100,000 bond after her court hearing before U.S. Magistrate Judge Henry Bemporad, according to an article in the San Antonio Express-News.
Webster was charged after a Texas grand jury handed down an indictment claiming that she and two other defendants were part of a scheme to bribe Army personnel to allegedly steer contracts to firms they operated. Also charged in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas was retired Army Master Sgt. Lawrence Peter Fenti and businessman John Walter Hoffman.
