Answers:
don't go to the police, they will show up at his house to arrest him and 30/70 chance your niece could get caught in the crossfire.
also there is no such thing as anonymous when it comes to the police. they trace your number, record your voice and will want you to testify.
if you know the doctors name and can get his address you would be better served to send HIM an anonymous letter telling him the truth about your niece's husband.
hang in there and remember, people on drugs can be very irrational and dangerous.
and whatever you do, don't expect your niece to thank you.

Other Answers:
You would call the police. You need not give your name.

report him to the proper authorities I agree, you should go to the police. You don't have to tell them your name.

either send an anonymous letter to the docs reporting him or ring the police.who knows what damage he is doing to vulnerable people,even kids?he shouldn't be allowed to do this.you would be doing a good and sensible act.you dont need to give your name or details to anyone

Report him to the physician. The physician sounds pretty shady himself though... mean what doctor writes a Rx for that many pain killers without follow up testing. So you can always report the doctor the state medical board. Go on google put in the state you live and then put medical board, along with whatever specialty he is. They will investigate the circumstances and make sure the doctor is not doing this on a regular basis.
I know I wouldn' t want a doctor in my neighborhood doing this. But at first give him/her the opportunity to correct the situation. You can call the office and make a anonymous tip. Good luck. You tell the authorities. Every state has a drug enforcement division. Call your local police and ask for someone in the drug enforcement division. Then explain the situation to them. They can take over from there.

Good for you for wanting this loser off the streets!
