The United States is trying to block bankruptcy plans to exonerate The Sackler Family From Opioid Claims
The U.S. Justice Department filed in late September “a request for a stay” to block The Sackler’s bankruptcy plans granting them broad legal immunity to the pharmaceutical (BIG PHARMA) company Purdue Pharma, which is their drug OxyContin (Heroin) is at the center of the United States opioid epidemic.
William Harrington, the US trustee in the Justice Department, asked federal courts to suspend confirmation of the deal while the Department appeals the judge’s decision to approve the deal.
News Update ….
The Sacklers Family Refuses to Settle or Resolve Opioid Epidemic Lawsuits Without Total Immunity From Crimes
The Associated Press reported that David Sackler, one of the grandsons of the 3 brothers who started Purdue nearly 70 years ago, says Purdue Pharma will not give billions of dollars to legal arrangements unless they get Total Immunity From The Crimes they are charged with and all current and future lawsuits for company activities. The Bankruptcy Trustee of the US, nine states, and the District of Columbia have opposed the company’s proposed settlement because it would provide legal protection to members of the wealthy Sackler family, although none of them have filed for bankruptcy. It’s like Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán, a Mexican drug lord and former leader of the Sinaloa Cartel says that it was the Sinaloa Cartel, not the “El Chapo Family” that was responsible for the deaths of 500,000 people in the States, millions of people addicted to OxyContin which is Heroin and the 70,000 people who died from Opioids in 2020 in the United States, which now is a New Record of people dying in this Opioid Epidemic. It is only going to get worse, there are millions of addicted suffers in the US right now, and they will eventually die from their Heroin addiction.
“We need a sufficient release (freedom from all crimes) to achieve our goals (to continue our crimes),” Sackler said in response to a question from an attorney for the United States bankruptcy trustee. “If the release fails to do that, we won’t support it.” Denying that they, the Sackler family have no legal responsibility for the drug epidemic since Purdue (which they own) marketed the opioids, Sackler said we have a moral responsibility to try to help and that’s the point of the agreement. It’s like Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán saying if you release me, I will spend some of my billions and try to help with your Drug, Opioid Epidemic.
End of Update……
Harrington stated the court had to grant his motion of suspension because the federal government “has a significant chance of succeeding in the appeal and because the harm that would result from the refusal of the stay outweighs the potential harm of the provision”.
The controversial deal was approved earlier in September by Judge Robert Drain, a federal judge in White Plains, New York. This could mean that the Sackler family, which owns Purdue Pharma, could be released of any future legal liability if they made a financial contribution of $4.3 billion from their own assets.
It’s like saying if Judge Drain releases El Chapo Guzmán, Joaquín (like Richard Sackler) promises to donate 4 or 5 billion dollars of his own fortune to help the people the Sinaloa Cartel killed with the Sinaloa Cartel’s heroin.
Harrington argued with the filing that the court of appeals ruled that the transaction deal had deprived those who had lawful lawsuits against the Sackler Family “without their knowledge and consent, adequate notice or even the opportunity to be heard”.
“The federal government’s case was also supported by previous Supreme Court rulings”, Harrington stated.
The US Justice Department filing is the latest in a long struggle and battle to get the Sackler family to admit their responsibility and be accountable for the manufacturing, marketing lies, and the selling of the drug OxyContin, a highly addictive and deadly painkiller.
Many medical experts claim that OxyContin helped the opioid addiction epidemic that killed more than 500,000 people across the United States and is still ravaging the country 20 years after the drug was first introduced. 70,000 US citizens dead from Opioids in 2020 alone. The number of people who died from Opioids (OXY) outside of the US is staggering also.
The FDA (approved OxyContin 1996?) also has a huge role in this deadly painkiller epidemic, FDA (Who, Why, and How) are just as guilty. (bribery). How does a deadly (HEROIN) drug get approved?
OxyContin made the Sackler family very rich, and withdrew $10.4 billion in the years 2008 thru 2017 from Purdue Pharma, and placed most of the funds offshore, knowing full well that they were in jeopardy of losing their fortune if left their money in the US. Sackler family members with their blood money bought 20 and 50 Million dollar Mansions with cash all over the US. What is the difference between blood diamonds, Guzman properties, or the evil Sackler blood fortune from OxyContin?
As more and more people died from opioid use, the plaintiffs sued Purdue. When the company filed for bankruptcy in September 2019, 2,900 lawsuits were known, of which more than 600 were named against the Sacklers. The bankruptcy proceedings put an end to these lawsuits. The Sackler family withdrew all the money from Purdue prior to 2019.
Judge Drain approved the settlement plan after careful negotiations between the family, local authorities, the hospital system, and others who have sued the company and are likely to be involved in costly litigation in the years to come.
Those who support the agreement, including most states and some plaintiffs, say it will provide much-needed funding for drug treatment programs.
Steve Miller, CEO of Purdue, said the agreement “ensures billions of dollars will be available to help people and communities affected by the opioid crisis.” Several members of the Sackler family said the resolution was an important step in addressing the public health crisis that they started.
However, critics say the term unfairly protects the Sacklers. It offers families the protection normally afforded to insolvent companies, but not to entrepreneurs who have not gone bankrupt themselves.
The US Justice Department and various states have appealed Drain’s decision.
