If there’s any of the judges I think legit care about what their elite liberal friends think of them, it’s Kavanaugh and Roberts. The Sackler family has decades of American blood on their hands, they need to suffer the consequences in some way

byzantium Posted August 10, 2023 Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Good this is such an abuse of the bankruptcy system. The Sackler family is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people and while no amount of money can compensate for that, they should be forced to pay for ongoing health treatment, public services, childcare and education costs of now orphaned children, and prevention strategies.

NEX Posted August 10, 2023 Posted August 10, 2023 Omg now way! I was feeling so hopeless on this case, especially after reading Empire of Pain. I thought there was absolutely no justice for this stuff, but this is giving some kind of hope!

Hopefully they can get much more from the Sacklers in the future. The family pulled $10 billion out of the company just since 2008 until it declared bankruptcy.

Now the victims who could've used that money may die empty handed. A perfect example of "don't let perfect be the enemy of good."

If something looks to questionable as far as process goes, she doesn't go for it. To be sure, once the question of the ghost guns comes to the full court, she'll likely fall back in with the conservative justices.
