They knew Oxycontin was addictive and claimed that it wasn't. They knew the deadly impact their drug was having on large groups of people, and yet did nothing to mitigate the impact. These are very serious crimes. Indeed, even if they were not, harming society in this way should be criminalized. I say this despite being pro-legalization. The issue isn't the drug itself, it's the lying, the undermining use of institutions like your family doctor, the FDA, to push this drug as if it were harmless, and to sit back and watch it take its toll, rolling in dough. It hurts.
