When undesirable side effects are discovered during clinical trials and covered up, should the people involved be sent to prison for twenty years?

[Kelley1]

Moreover, should people in the FDA that continue the coverup by hiding thousands of complaints, also be sent to prison for twenty years?

[Lliam]

Yes! Yes! Absolutely!
I think 20 years is to light of a sentence.

[Lliam]

OMG, I meant "too" not "to".

Thanks for the MHO, Kelley.

[Dargil]

There should be prosecutions.

[Gwendoline]

Absolutely yes. Pfizer and others have been getting away scot free for years.

[HungTexan]

There should be consequences for covering up such information.

[exitseven]

there does need to be consequences. Jail time should not be off the table.

[DJB72]

Maybe - just maybe the answer is not to have the pharmaceutical industry managing its own oversight?

[Surely]

The one that should go to prison and lose his pension was pardoned by Joey as he went out the door!

[seeyounexttuesday]

at a minimum. The Sackler family and everyone who approved oxy in the FDA should be publicly executed.

[NathanDavis]

that's not the American way... the American way is... screw your grandma

[nawtee_me]

I think they should be made to take whatever they were covering up for.

[beefcakebradybatson]

At least ten to fifteen years for swindling and jeopardizing lives.

[Iron_Man]

they should be disciplined I don’t know about a certain time limit. That’s hard-core to place a number on their sentence

It depends on the severity of the side effects.
