Well, this has been going on for decades in the case of opioids, resulting in a national catastrophe, and no one has been arrested yet.

Actually there have been a lot of arrests, but so far they have been of the doctors and staff prescribing the pills, rather than the Mr Bigs. Google "pill mill arrests" for examples.
