The Supreme Court has temporarily blocked a nationwide settlement with OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma that would shield members of the Sackler family who own the company from civil lawsuits over the toll of opioids.
This is epic AF. I thought these dope pushers were gonna get away scot free, there for a while.
Good. Three years ago I had to give CPR to a 64 year old homeless guy, an ex-cop who was one of the sweetest and most interesting people I’d ever met, after he smoked a hit of what he thought was oxy, collapsed, and turned blue.
It was fent.
Luckily there was Narcan available, carried by the street kids he hung out with and took care of, and we got him breathing just as the paramedics arrived.
That entire little tribe (about 15 folks) was hooked on oxy, and most had started with a prescription. The Sacklers are responsible for all it - they should be in jail with all the other cartel members.
Jail isn’t good enough for them. They are pushers and murderers on an unbelievable scale. They should face the same penalties as any other junk pusher who has been caught.
We aren’t talking about Little Joey down on the corner selling dime bags of kind bud; we’re talking about a family who got together and gamed the system, lied through their teeth, and created more fucking junkies than the Vietnam war.
