That doesn't affect Perdue's guilt.
- thehappypm 5y agoHow? If Perdue said “this is basically a miracle pain killer. It carries risks.” and doctors said “k, my patients hate pain, I’ll prescribe it heavily!” that doesn’t sound like Perdue’s fault
- Causality1 5y agoPerdue paid them to look the other way. I'm equally guilty whether I trick someone into poisoning someone else or pay them to do it.
- kodah 5y agoI'm inclined to agree that it doesn't affect Perdue's guilt. Though, what people are bothered by is that ~$5B doesn't align with the outcome, which I'm also inclined to agree with. I think if you accept my rationalization above then that could leave open a remaining $5B that is owed by participating physicians.
- Causality1 5y agoCertainly. Those doctors should be in prison.
