Defendant’s mail fraud, money laundering and wire fraud convictions are affirmed in part where the government properly indicted defendant as an agent of the Alabama Poison Control Center and of the State of Alabama under 18 U.S.C. section 666, and the evidence was sufficient to show that defendant acted in such capacities.  However, the judgment is reversed in part where, as to certain counts, the government indicted defendant as an agent of the State of Alabama under section 666, but he did not act as an agent of the state with respect to those counts.
