Johnson & Johnson acted as an opioid"kingpin" by using a web of foreign and domestic subsidiaries to supply raw materials"necessary to manufacture the opioid pain medications thrust upon the unsuspecting public since the 1990s," Oklahoma Attorney General Mike Hunter alleged in court filings.
Hunter argued that Johnson & Johnson should be compelled to release millions of pages of documents about its role in the opioid epidemic. "Urgent, immediate and complete exposure to the public of J&J's primary role in creating this public health crisis has become paramount," Hunter said in a filing in Cleveland County District Court on February 26 as part of his lawsuit against J&J and other pharmaceutical companies.
Amid a staggering death toll from overdoses, President Trump declared the opioid crisis a public health emergency in October 2017, saying"nobody has seen anything like what is going on now." Since 2000, more than 600,000 Americans have died of drug overdoses, with the majority coming from opioids, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A total of 36 states have filed cases against pharmaceutical companies in state courts related to the opioid crisis.

I got news for you. Doctors judges and lawyers all take bribes and payoffs. Women have been stroking the system off. Face the blowback. Get back to us when you have some individual indictments. The belly of the beast is starving. Matter of fact, go sit on a egg.
Where was the FDA?
It's bad but it's legal. It's wrong but it makes them rich. Insane world.
All BULLS--T, laying the foundation to sue the pharmaceutical companies, like they did tobacco companies settling on ludacris figures where upon settling, the cost rose 5xs passed down to the consumer, (in the end lawyers lined their jeans), and EVERYONE'S insurance went up. 🤔
Evidently the makers of baby items, want to kill off the adults ( the ones who make babies) either by drug addiction or giving us ( I'm one) ovarian cancer.
Disgusting
Why don't you do a story on how the new restrictions on opiates are making it ridiculously hard for people who legitametly need them to even find a doctor to prescribe them, let alone find a pharmacy who won't make us jump thru hoops. It sucks!
This is worded like sourcing supplies for drugs, LEGAL DRUGS is a crime. It's not the creation of the drugs that's illegal, it's how they are/were marketed. You're concentrating on the wrong end of the problem.
Its a business...people dont matter ....just pockets full of money
The el chapo of the legal drug world
Oopsie!

It is hard to accept that our celebrities, brands and politicians on TV are all capable of lies, greed and predatory profit. Do not not worship false idols.
