  1. … & here we go ! Another white man who made his OWN decisions who has now suffered a priceless loss of his son & wife. But now Murdoch freakin' narrative is going to be the "affluent excuse". I pray that he didnt lose his family members over his poor decisions. Truth is anyone who chooses to get high is also choosing to interact with drug users & dealers, possibly even going to their homes. Instead of a man who owns his mistakes, grows from & moves on from, no, we're going to hear more about the opiate epidemic which seemed to take the back seat to the Corona queen, how stressful it has become for those teetering, stealing from "Peter to pay Paul" & on & on it goes. Its everyone & everything else's fault. They will pat him on the back wen he goes to rehab, blah, blag, blag… & he'll get high the minute the coast is clear bcz all "this" is distraction & manipulation. I'm so tired of all of it. Forget burning the bridge …
    drain the swamp ~

  2. Pain Patients that need these medications are being denied and killing themselves. Post op patients are left to suffer.
    This narrative is WRONG!

  3. How can anyone still ask what’s driving the opioid problem? In South Carolina, the most effective, natural herbal remedy is illegal. If you want a script, just go see the right doctor and get your oxycodone and heroin addiction prescribed. I know there’s too much money in pharmaceuticals keeping marijuana illegal, federally and in certain states. Lobbying should be illegal.

  4. This guy does not have an opiate addiction. He said that he stole $1 million from his law firm because of his opiate addiction to pay for opiates Dash no one with an opiate addiction and $1 million stays alive very long. If you were getting them from a doctor he wouldn’t need the million dollars, they don’t cost that much. So obviously he’s getting them from an outside source. Even if he’s not doing heroin but believes he’s doing Percocets or OxyContin many of the pills available today haven’t spiked with fentanyl. I live on the West Coast and people are dying from eating one fake pressed pill all the time. This guy says he has an opiate addiction because it’s kind of embarrassing and people won’t look into it that much and it’s a really good cover-up for why he might’ve really taken a bunch of money from his law firm which in my opinion is to hire someone to shoot his wife and son. What? You think this is the first time he’s hired someone to shoot someone? And you don’t think he gave this speaker client of his the gun that was loaded with blanks? Keep in mind this guy is a lawyer, andPresumably a good one. He wouldn’t be this sloppy.

  5. Lol 😂
    The opioid addiction in the south is nothing like the opioid addiction in the big city so don’t even try to act like there’s a huge problem in the south it’s nothing compared to Needle Park in Philadelphia, and Seattle!

  6. This is just a way to paint this man in a different pathetic light. Diverting what he's actually done to his family & community. The guy he paid to shoot him will probably get more time then this man will ever see.

  7. And there’s drug overdose deaths are just going to keep piling up! Thanks to the demented murderer in the White House who has open borders run by the cartels and drugs and Covid just pouring into the US!

  8. More opioid hysteria. Stop using opioids as a scapegoat for everything. Some people have a very real need for daily opioids and now can no longer access that medication due to this ongoing hysteria.
