The McKesson & Robbins, Inc. scandal of 1938 was one of the major financial scandals of the 20th century.
 The company McKesson & Robbins, Inc. (now McKesson Corporation) had been taken over in 1925 by Phillip Musica, who had previously used Adelphia Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Company as a front for bootlegging operations.
 Musica, a twice-convicted felon, used assumed names to conceal his true identity in taking control of the two companies: Frank D. Costa at Adelphia Pharmaceutical and F. Donald Coster at McKesson & Robbins.
 Although he was successful in expanding the company’s legitimate business operations, Musica recruited three of his brothers, also working under assumed names, one outside the company and two inside it, to generate bogus sales documentation and to pay commissions to a shell distribution company under their control.
 Eventually, McKesson & Robbins treasurer Julian Thompson discovered the distribution company was bogus.
 It was eventually determined that about $20 million of the $87 million in assets on the company’s balance sheet were phony. Iain MacDonald (businessman)
