A wee item about the #Sackler foundation donating money, in this case to an #NHS trust caught. Rightful outrage and questions about how they have managed avoid prison.
Then I remembered that the USA is a country that funded arms to #Iran, in order to support Central American terrorists by promoting the sale and distribution of drugs in their own country (#IranContra). If it was a film script or a novel it would be rejected as fantasy. The Sacklers fit in.

The group of survivors – 75 people out of >82k who filed claims against the #BoyScouts – argued that #SCOTUS should have reopened the settlement in light of its decision last year in a similar legal dispute in involving #PurduePharma, the maker of the #opioid pain mediciation #OxyContin. In that case, a 5-4 majority rejected a bankruptcy agreement that would have shielded the #Sackler family from future lawsuits even though it made its fortune running the company.

The deal is among the largest in a series of opioid settlements brought by state & local governments against drugmakers, wholesalers & pharmacies that totaled about $50 billion. It could close a long chapter — & maybe the entire book — on a legal odyssey over efforts to hold the company to account for its role in an #OpioidCrisis connected to 900,000 deaths in the U.S. since 1999, including deaths from #heroin & illicit #fentanyl.

The deal overseen by US Bankruptcy Judge Sean Lane would require members of the #Sackler family who own the company to contribute up to $7 billion & give up ownership. The new agreement replaces one #SCOTUS rejected last year, finding it would have improperly protected members of the family against future lawsuits. The judge said he would explain his decision in a hearing Tuesday.

[06:27] Purdue and Sacklers reach $7.4bn opiod crisis settlement
Purdue Pharma and its Sackler family owners have reached a new $7.4 billion settlement to resolve thousands of lawsuits alleging that the pain medication OxyContin caused a widespread opioid addiction crisis in the US, several state attorneys general have said.

As the #Potus #Debate begins tonight, consider:
#SCotUS suspended a $6B judgment against against the #Sackler family (whose company made #Oxycontin) in favor of the families of their victims.
To explain his vote to suspend the ruling, Justice #Gorsuch said (quote) "there may be a better deal on the horizon."
"Better deal" for *who*? Is that "horizon" a T**** reelection? 🤔

#NEWS: 4 major rulings handed down from the #SupremeCourt today:
✨ Allowing access to an emergency #abortion in Idaho…for now
✨ Overturning the #purduepharma bankruptcy deal #Sackler
✨ A blow to #ClimateChange by limiting an #EPA #airquality program

Here’s a list of the undecided cases (like #Trump #immunity) & the rulings so far:

#GiftArticle on #SCOTUS’ ruling on #PurduePharma #opioid case
The #SupremeCourt blocked a controversial proposed Purdue #Pharma bankruptcy plan that would have provided billions to help address the nation’s #OpioidCrisis in exchange for protecting the #Sackler family from future lawsuits.
The closely watched fight involving the maker of #OxyContin is part of a national reckoning over the role of #drugmakers & others in the #PublicHealth opioid #addiction crisis. -
Supreme court issues three major decisions surrounding Purdue Pharma, the EPA and abortion
-- but I'd quiet on Trump immunity hours before debateThe supreme court on Thursday issued three major decisions on cases involving OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma, an air pollution rule by the Environmental Protection Agency and abortion access in Idaho.
⭐️In a 5-4 decision, the conservative-majority court rejected #Purdue Pharma’s multi-billion dollar settlement that would have shielded the wealthy #Sackler family from future lawsuits over the country’s deadly #opioid epidemic, but would have also provided compensation and rehabilitation funds to victims.
In his opinion, conservative justice Neil Gorsuch wrote:
“The Sacklers seek greater relief than a bankruptcy discharge normally affords, for they hope to extinguish even claims for wrongful death and fraud, and they seek to do so without putting anything close to all their assets on the table.”⭐️In a separate 5-4 decision, the court put on hold an attempt by the #EPA to reduce air pollution from power plants in “upwind” states that would affect air quality in “#downwind” states. Along with industry allies, Ohio, West Virginia and Indiana have been challenging the EPA’s rule.
Conservative justice Amy Coney Barrett, who joined the court’s three liberal justices, in dissent, wrote that the court “justifies this decision based on an alleged procedural error that likely had no impact on the plan.”⭐️Meanwhile, in a victory for reproductive rights activists, the court dismissed a case over whether #emergency room doctors can perform #abortions to so save a pregnant woman’s life.
The court’s 6-3 decision marks a win for the Joe Bidenadministration, for now, as the case is returned to a lower court and potentially delays a final decision until after the election. Idaho had tried to have the procedure exempted from the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act. -

On the #Pharma #sackler #opiod case:
Edward Neiger, who represents thousands of victims who stood to benefit from the #PurduePharma bankruptcy settlement that the #SCOTUS blocked, called the decision “a major setback for the families who lost loves ones to overdose and for those still struggling with addiction.” In a statement, he said that “victims have been abandoned by every branch of the government.”

The second #SCOTUS ruling is on Harrington v. Purdue #Pharma. The high court is reversing the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit, blocking a controversial bankruptcy plan that would have provided billions of dollars to help address the nation’s #opioid crisis in exchange for protecting the #Sackler family that owns the company from future lawsuits.

CW: Long thread/2
After a decade-long crime spree in which the family used a combination of elite philanthropy and vicious legal threats against critics (including me!) to maintain a squeaky-clean image, the #Sackler name is finally a synonym for mass murder, and will forever be a curse. But though they lost their name, they kept their billions.
In so doing, the Sacklers exposed the rot at the heart of American bankruptcy, bringing an obscure, deeply corrupt system into the public eye.

#SCOTUS justices seemed divided on Mon over a bankruptcy settlement for #PurduePharma that would funnel billions to address the #opioid epidemic in exchange for shielding members of the wealthy #Sackler family from related #civil #lawsuits.
The #DOJ US Trustee Prgm, had challenged the deal, saying that it violated #federal #law by guaranteeing such wide-ranging #legal #immunity for the Sacklers.

Land of the Free: Guns & Drugs
How disadvantage became deadly in #America
“The reason, then, that the least fortunate in the US live such short lives compared with their counterparts elsewhere in the developed world is not economic. In the case of #guns it is sociopolitical, with entrenched positions preventing progress. And in the case of #opioids, it was triggered by predatory pharmaceutical practices absent elsewhere in the world.”

And the more we talk about this - the more we make this consequence explicit - the more it will weigh on them, and the better the chance that they'll surprise us. That's already happening! The Supremes just crushed the #Sackler opioid crime-family's dream of keeping their billions in blood-money:

But if it doesn't stop them? If they crush this dream, too? Pack the court. Impose term limits.

Watching “Crime of the Century” on HBO, excellent documentary about the almost farcically evil #Sackler family, architects of the Opioid Crisis. I hold them responsible for the death of a young relative. #CrimeOfTheCentury #spoonie
