The difference between them and the Sackler family? Money...... Welcome to the US Pharma business, who owns the US government....

THE USAs Drug WARS will be somedays example of the Wealthy destroying all things living for the opportunity to rule or destroy all life on the planet.
Back in the early 00's Oxycontin was plentiful on the street and the pills were obviously designed to be crushed and snorted. The Sacklers should be stripped of every penny they have and put in the jail cells next to Chapo Guzman at the ADX Supermax Prison.
@@JaneDoe-xn3ct if you have cancer then of course you should be given medication to help with the pain. But what about the other people it was prescribed to that did NOT have cancer! This family knew back in 2000 that this drug could become addictive and yet they kept pushing this drug and telling everyone this drug was safe! I’m very well aware of chronic pain is I’ve had 8 spinal cord surgeries. It’s not cancer but it’s still painful.
The whole Sackler Family should be in jail for life right now. There the ones responsible for the loss of hundreds of thousands of innocent lives. Someone needs to prove to them that when you make billions off of peoples terrible deaths, you don’t get away with it.
I hurt my back in 97. The Drs; started me on Tylanol 3. Then in 2 years did surgery that started me on oxy. At the time I had been sober in AA for nearly 20 years. 19 yr, 10 months. I tried coming off the drug on my own and my whole body felt like an open blister. I ended up drinking thinking it would help my pain while coming off the drug. Addicted to both before year was out. I was an athlete, had a house on the water that was paid for, wife, beautiful daughter, I was living in a veterans shelter within a year. Lost everything. My failed everyone.
I feel like the wealth of the Sacklers and Purdue should be seized and everyone who got addicted to Oxy's in the late 90's and early 00's (who is still alive) should get a piece of it.
Don't forget about all the doctors who prescribed the drug and continued to do so. How many folks are addicted to Valium and other drugs ? The medical profession has to also be accountable.
Still trying to pick up the pieces ten years later. Its still hard to make it every day, seems like oxy made the pain came on stronger when I came off of it." Feels like your skin has been pulled off " is correct. GREED KILLS! every day!
So far none of them had gone to jail or prison. They are culpable in OD deaths of thousands not to mention victims of addiction related crimes. Why aren't they being tried for "Crimes Against Humanity?"
It is absolutely infuriating that the department of justice, the same organization which helped ensure the complete destruction of thousands and thousands of lives- was able to reach an 8 billion dollar settlement with Purdue in their bankruptcy case, but when it comes to the communities, families, and individuals who have been directly impacted by them, only 4+ billion dollars were ever promised and NOW they're struggling with whether or not they should uphold that promise.
This book was amazing! So much insight!! The sad fact is that no one will ever see any money from this evil family. It will be in the courts forever! Sad but true. Karma is a real thing!! I hope the family is ready for that!
This is no different than what has happened for hundreds of years. Rich people who obtained their wealth by unethical or illegal means, and gave a small pittance back
4.2 billion is a lot for a settlement but think that in a couple of years, they’ll probably make that back and then some anyway from their other business and shares.
Opioids almost ruined my life I blame the doctors for writing scripts so freely! I broke my back had 3 surgeries and 6 years of pain meds😥 I live with chronic pain now but lucky to be off the pain pills! I rather be with pain and have a brain than live in a fog addicted to opioids
Good investigative reporting, I ought to look into his book. Following an American tradition started with Upton Sinclair , on his book, “ The Jungle “. It was about Chicago Meatpacking Industry. He was writing a fiction about the struggles of a Lithuanian Emigre , who at first worked in the industry, and in describing his working conditions on meat packing plants ( at the time Swift and Armour Companies were the biggest ones around ) , Mr. Sinclair delivered a gut punch through people’s stomachs. Not only the book sold well through generations , the aftermath of his novel popularity produced the Clean Food Act. Americans were revolted by what they read.
I love how they try to down play the Authaur Sacklar legacy of over prescribing Valium, that's not a great drug either. But the next Generation definitely had a "Hold my Beer Arthur" drive.
How about doing a story on how all chronic pain patients, with proven debilitating conditions are now at home in agony. To show advances in this alleged war on opioids, they couldn't reach the attics so they cut legitimate medication users. Check it out....addicts are still dying at exactly the same rate. And the rest of us with legitimate pain just wish we were dead.
$4.2 billion is not enough, their entire net worth and wealth should have been stripped from them as all of them benefited some way, even if you didn’t manufacture or promote the drug by not stopping it you are still guilty of not doing oversight. Showing them even an ounce of pity or mercy is the worst thing to do especially against a very rich person like the 1% or those profiting off others (Jeff bezos and Elon musk come to mind)
All the guilty Sackler family members should be forced to become dependent on their own drugs. Then make them withdrawal from them. After that, start the process all over again ad nauseum until they take their last breaths...
He made his initial fortune peddling Valium which, back in the day, was an equally destructive and addictive epidemic for the same reasons. They should all be in jail.
These are the ones found of malfeasance in our borders. Now, someone might find enlightenment in reading FDA logs about our main overseas drug suppliers of active ingredients, non active ingredients , and finished pharmaceutical drugs. Chiefly from China and India. The logs have constant citations of violations and suspensions on the account of failure to adhere to good practices , unsubstantiated and incongruous production reporting, inadequate laboratory equipment, poor water quality, test failures. Then think about shipments of these drugs to Third World Countries and Smuggled Shipments into the US. CBS or any investigative journalism outlet ought to look into this.
Why didn’t they cover the Purdue pursuit to then also create new drugs to deal with addiction. So they create an addiction then try and profit off of it as well
You have no regrets?!?.. you company has been convicted of criminal felonies twice in the last decade.. and you have zero regrets.. stunning.. at least she's honest.
My mother died overdosed on opana she is gone she isn’t coming back I am 38 years old and my kids have no grandma I have no mother my father has no wife my siblings have no mother she died because this pill was to help her pain she is DEAD NO GOOD FOR US BUT YOUR BUISNESS AND YOUR FAMILY NEED TO BE THE ONES SUFFERING and my brother died after my mother was in 2011 brother 2014 needle in his arm after he got out of prison now sister is up on the salt lake streets addicted and I pray to god someone did this !
And the people who actually deserved some type of pain med. I had a bad elbow fracture during this. Wasn't allowed a single thing . Was made to feel like I was a drug addict for asking for something besides acetaminophen. F the Sacklers
They will walk away richer than before. None will see a jail cell. People will continue to die and the sacklers could care less. Take the name drag it through the mud so what. Take their money now your talkin.
And what is a life worth today ? Obviously not very much ! Unless you're very rich and powerful . Never saw a senators son in combat . Ain't that just dandy . Oh , JFK , you will ask , he volunteered . The price of freedom is buried six feet in the ground . May God Bless Them All .
So ... The doctors who prescribed these opioids to the patients aren't held accountable? And the people who continue to abuse the prescribed drug are not held accountable for their actions?
I want people who use apostrophes to make nouns plural (doctors) held accountable. How can a person make it all the way through school and not know that ? Here’s some advice. Don’t ever use an apostrophe if it’s outside your skill set.
@@zorazorazorzzora8333 no I know people become addicted w this medicine but it has help more than hurt. Enough with lawsuits and family paying off to let this be done. A world of pointers, suings, getting back. Geeze

How does a doctor prescribe a former heroin addict , oxy for a wrist injury?
money is addictive
Originally it was marketed as non-addictive believe it or not.
They need to be in jail!!
Not shocked, GREED, is awful, and they committed the sin of omission and commission! They are liars!
Like Bill Gates
@@DgurlSunshine Nothing like Bill Gates. The Sacklers killed millions and destroyed the lives of many more.
Why are these Sackler family members not in prison?
4.2 billion to settle? The Sackler family still don’t get it.
Neither does our "Justice" Department, frauds
No blame for the doctors who over prescribed??
This is like blaming the gun manufacturers and ammo makers but not the people that shoot the guns. Pretty stupid if you ask me.
Don't forget about all the doctors who prescribed the drug and continued to do so. How many folks are addicted to Valium and other drugs ? The medical profession has to also be accountable.
Now its "MENTAL HEALTH" DRUGS, for KIDS
*Dollars at any cost is the American way.*

And people for weed related crimes are in prison😂
Wow. That was excellent.
I am a nurse and I do see how it helps my patients. I think there are so many variables that are responsible for people’s addiction.
So far none of them had gone to jail or prison. They are culpable in OD deaths of thousands not to mention victims of addiction related crimes. Why aren't they being tried for "Crimes Against Humanity?"
In My Area..."OxyContin" Was Mainly Distibuted in, 20Mg, 40Mg, & 80Mg.
"OxyCodone" was 5Mg, & 10Mg Mostly.
David Sackler reminds me of Damien Thorn of Omen.

They should make them take the drug for 365 days with a dose of 150mgx 4-5 a day and then let them loose.. that was my life for 10years
These people should be in prison and certainly should be shunned by everyone
