One thought on “Supreme Court rejects $6B nationwide opioid settlement with OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma

  1. A rare moment in which I agree with SCOTUS. The protection that the settlement offered the Sackler’s was abhorrent. They should die penniless for their crimes. Every single of dollar of the billions they made should be recovered and their properties liquidated.
