Why It Matters for Diversion Programs
This entry comes from a primary licensing-board or law-enforcement record rather than a secondary aggregator, and it is recorded as reported. Board and news records are a lagging indicator - by the time a licensing authority or reporter learns of a diversion, the diversion was normally detected internally first, which makes each entry a signal that inventory reconciliation, waste observation, or dispensing oversight failed earlier.
