David Perez, a former Carlsbad resident now living in Oregon, was sentenced to 30 months in custody yesterday (April 4) for selling unapproved "Energy Wave" medical devices over the internet. He admitted to his crimes in a plea agreement with federal officials.
Perez claimed the device, a microcurrent frequency generator with attachments, could treat conditions from abdominal pain to strokes. Perez sold the device for $1200 to $1500. He admitted to raising $271,000 from the sales.
He admitted that he knowingly defrauded the Food and Drug Administration by attempting to evade the agency's oversight of such devices.
