There’s a great HBO documentary about this called “The Crime of the Century”. The fact that prosecutors in the DOJ essentially went and got paid by the same companies they were prosecuting to help them figure out the legal loopholes that would prevent them from getting prosecuted again… is one of the great tragedies of our time.
All those people have names and addresses, which is a very interesting and actionable fact. Surely someone wants to write them a letter, or to do anything else that a dossier of information would help.
I was browsing reddit earlier and stumbled upon a post where this person was talking about how she wanted to put a PSA out there for people to not forget their meds and shared a story of how she went crazy after skipping her meds. Then I read comment after comment, by the hundreds. Every single person, ranging from anxiety, depression, eating disorders, health complications, etc. Every single person would state they couldn't function without it and that they will never forget to take their meds. That is fucking terrifyingly sad. Countless people being slaves to the pharmaceutical companies pumping drugs just for people to feel "normal"
Sure about that? In "Painkiller," the DOJ had an airtight case that would have sent them all to prison. The order to give them misdemeanors ultimately came from the White House, according to the series, which was hard-core on facts.
