DECEMBER 29--A Drug Enforcement Administration probe of an Adderall-trafficking ring based out of a Brooklyn hospital has snared a medical student on a felony narcotics charge and appears to have implicated her sister, an attorney, in distributing the popular attention deficit disorder drug.
Pauline Wiltshire, 30, was arrested Monday for her alleged role in the ring, which involved residents and workers at New York Methodist Hospital in Park Slope. A criminal complaint alleges that Wiltshire, who once lived a block from Methodist, conspired to illegally distribute Adderall between May 2008 and this October.

Wiltshire, freed Monday on $50,000 bond, was placed under house arrest with electronic monitoring, according to U.S. District Court records. She faces a maximum of more than 10 years in prison if convicted of the felony drug conspiracy charge.
Over an 18-month period, Wiltshire received prescriptions for more than 2000 Adderall pills, DEA investigators reported, adding that the prescriptions were frequently filled in a succession of dates too close together to have been used exclusively for legitimate medical purposes.
