1. What about Canada? My cousins were all on oxy back in the day

2. Oxycodone is a medication for Pain the only place to get hold of it without prescription is at ,

3. This drug has helped my mom to be able to live again and enjoy life without chronic pain, but has ruined my girlfriend’s parent’s lives. It’s all about using it as a last resort when everything else has been tried

4. Wish all of salespeople who helped push these into offices gets theirs. Just as guilty.

5. Hey only 8 billion how about putting them out of business and use The Money to fix the problem. Also all The doctors who participate should be put out of business too. To fix that problem it have to be consequences

6. I hear lots of people talking about the Sackler family being held accountable (which they of course should be), but I don't hear anything about lawsuits against the doctors taking kickbacks to push oxycontin to patients. Are these doctors, as individuals, not also responsible, albeit on a smaller scale?

7. 8 billion is nothing to them, give me a break

8. Makes you wonder if our Gov't would let a drug cartel off the hook if they forked over enough cash… or maybe they just did. BTW, the Sacklers are worth about 13 billion dollars.

9. Purdue Pharma are Murderers and the makers behind it and should get the death penalty.

10. Oh wow 8 billion dollars and no one going to jail 😍😍

11. so many people get prescriptions for pain killers and they don’t need them they only get them so they can sell them.

12. There are angels that have bought this to where is is now & making sure Purdue is held accountable. A pain killer designed to keep you addicted so the pockets of greedy people could remain thick, when in reality, cause much more pain than it was taking away. I hope whoever helped with this knows that this gives so many individuals, family & friends some closure. I can rest easy knowing my daughter is safe from this drug that had a disgustingly strong grip on her Father & I. I am greatful beyond words to the people that took down this company. ❤

13. Pleads guilty on 3 felonies and no jail time???

14. How about making some treatment centers?! Ive been addicted for 13 of my 27 years. I have tried over and over to contact my health department and no one will call me back for an appointment. This is ridiculous. When someone wants help, you grab there hand and give it to them, before its to late.

15. People in the street sell drugs go to prison for 25 years or more phamacy kill millions people dont do one day in jail pay a small fine everybody know the biggest drug dealer in the world is the pharmacy justice system is completly broking

16. Pass the cost back to consumers on other products

17. I’m 🤷‍♀️ confused & slightly perplexed by this report. So, if I understand correctly, Purdue (who manufactures oxycodoene) physically held people down & forced them to swallow this drug, right?!!? Then, they did the same to children/adolescents. What a freaking load of horse crap!!! Much the same as cigarettes smoking did! Our country actually encourages frivolous law suites, & our citizens take no responsibility for choices that THEY MADE!! Drives me crazy 😡. Many people with chronic pain rely on this medicine to be able to function, and their life easier. Not to abuse it, but merely to function in their daily lives.

18. Rich people don’t go to jail. Money is their god.

19. Felony charges with 0 jail time. End corporations which shield their owners managers from liability

20. Yeshua is coming soon. Vacation and the Great Tribulation are imminent. Hear the children of God who have ears to hear and are wise. If left in the great tribulation, the church has no salvation except martyrdom. It is said that most of the churches that do not preach the Second Coming of Jesus are left behind.
    Prepare the churches with repentance and holiness.
    The earth will be judged for man's sins Submit to the love that Yeshua raised us from sin; only Yeshua will save us

21. They managed to kill more than covid 19, so far. That's impressive,and know one went to prison. Seem legal drug pushers are treated differently to the illigal ones, even though they do the same job.

22. You know what’s funny ,Tylenol 3 is sold in Canada over the counter no problems in that country like here

23. And the hits just keep coming for corrupt Biden! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

24. But who is going to prison though? 🔥🤔🔥 #TheWarOnDrugs must only apply to melanated people and low level dealers.

25. $8 billion ÷ 400,000 = $20,000 per premeditated murder. $20,000 per human life wiped out in a prolonged, tortuous misery on the way to death.

    when have you heard of a serial killer being sentenced to a $20k fine?

26. Disgusting family.

27. #Vote for #TRUMP2020 and save this Country from the far left who want to DEFUND THE POLICE and endanger your family's security.. #MAGA2020 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍👍

28. O no bro (muscle man voice)

29. it s not enough !

30. Kratom saves lives

31. I'm sure they are Republicans and trump supporters….this is why we need Joe Biden as president of the United States….the rich and powerful have too much control in United States…. vote4joebiden

32. Yet marijuana is the main problem 🙄🤔

33. But no jail time for SACKLEY FAMILY or executives who bankrolled this

34. They won't have to pay and no one goes to jail. What's the punishment?

35. Hey Ask joe if I can have My Fair Share of his 10% of the chinese Company that the ccp gave him for his help. If not I'll take 50k a month and
    kick back 50% to '"the Big Guy" I have no skills but Hunter and I can smoke crack with the human traffickers so let me know. I can also go to
    russia and pick up some cash when you need it. Don't thank me now but I think I can really help you.

36. pennies in the bucket to what they made, and continue to made. the company should be barred from even making prescription meds, and give the drug patents to humanity.
