Will the Trump Supreme Court allow the makers of a drug which caused dire consequences, which included death and addiction to have a free pass?

OxyContin Maker's Bankruptcy Deal Goes Before The Supreme Court

The Supreme Court on Monday is hearing arguments over a nationwide settlement with OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma that would shield members of the Sackler family who own the company from civil lawsuits over the toll of opioids.

The agreement hammered out with state and local governments and victims would provide billions of dollars to combat the opioid epidemic. The Sacklers would contribute up to $6 billion and give up ownership, and the company would emerge from bankruptcy as a different entity, with its profits used for treatment and prevention.

But the justices put the settlement on hold during the summer, in response to objections from the Biden administration.

The issue for the justices is whether the legal shield that bankruptcy provides can be extended to people such as the Sacklers, who have not declared bankruptcy themselves. Lower courts have issued conflicting decisions over that issue, which also has implications for other major product liability lawsuits settled through the bankruptcy system.

Trump, will support Oxycontin not to be taken off the market, when we all know that it should be. He doesn't care it's the most dangerous medication on the market and is killing millions daily to overdoses.
