Two cash-strapped rehab center execs commit suicide within days of each other, leaving company in chaos

Two executives for a company that operates rehab facilities across the US committed suicide after they ran out of cash, leaving at least one location in a state of chaos, according to reports.

Hundreds of employees of Retreat Behavioral Health, which operates in Florida, Pennsylvania and Connecticut, were thrown out of work after the suicides of CEO Peter Schorr and Chief Administrative Officer Scott Korogodsky, which occurred within five days of each other.

At least one center, in Palm Springs, Fla., descended into chaos this week when patients were told to leave, then were allowed back in — only to break into nursing stations to get narcotics, while staffers emptied refrigerators full of food, a nurse told WPTV.
