connecticut is home to purdue pharma.y general is attempting to hold them to account for the lives lost and money spent on the opioid crisis. i don't think that we as a state, and as a country, understood the depths and the extent to which the defendant members, the sackler family and purdue were engaged in misconduct and how far—reaching it was. but now we know. this is an email conversation between then purdue president richard sackler and an acquaintance around 2001. and the acquaintance writes, "abusers die, well, that is the choice they made." "i doubt a single one didn't know of the risks." and richard sackler writes back, "abusers aren't the victims, they are the victimisers." and i got to tell you, every time i read this email it's hard to read, it's hard to stomach that someone would write that about people who are suffering, people who are in real distress and people who have died. we are learning more about a former football star found dead in an apparent drug overdose last friday in scottsdale... i am angry, t

purdue is asking all litigation against it and the family be suspended. 24 states and the district ofolumbia have filed options. that is the issue at hand today. the states that oppose the deal want to continue pursuing against the company and the family we'll see them kicking off early next year. >> they don't know whether they should accept settlements. if the company goes into bankruptcy, are they risking not having a session at all? >> if they don't have enough for settlement, they'll have to liquidate and go through settlement they are trying to scramble and get ahead of that. they say the longer the litigation goes on, the more resources will be drained. they are spending millions a week that is money that could go towards the remediating. >>> still ahead, end of an era for one of the largest software companies. and the streaming wars rage on "worldwide exchange" is back after this everything. no not everything, i mean you're still blatantly sucking up to me gary. brilliantly observed, sir. always three steps ahead. six steps ahead. sixteen. so many steps. you done? a million st

purdue's approval, i started writing about their personal lives. there's nothing here political about them in the biographies. so as i began to do it, i said there is so much, there is so much information that people really need to know that they don't really know about the presidents, and that's how the book evolved, because it was, there were just stories that needed to be told x. the stories are funny, they're sad, they're poignant. it's amazing how there is common threads that run through the presidents' pasts. and scandals have been going on forever. and the importance of religion in prime ministers' lives -- presidents' lives and the value of mothers and hard work and the work ethic. so that's how it actually came, came to be. more than 20 years ago i was the director of marketing at a historic hotel in rapid city. outside the hotel during the winter months we had on display the figure of lincoln. and mr. purdue, who is a local businessman and philanthropist, he and his wife were friends of my husband and i. and he said, you know, nancy, i se

started thinking about pain and when that was combined with deceptive advertising from companies like purdue pharma which convinced doctors the opioids were not actually addictive, in combination it led to a situation where people were receiving more pain pills than ever before in their stories of places like kermit, west virginia, a town of 400 people that received millions of pills a year. there were pill mills and people had legitimate need for these pills found that with the prescriptions were finished they were addicted. so many of them turned to street heroin. and so heroin represented the second wave of the opioid crisis. now, as of the last five years or so in a lot of places it's a most impossible to find pure heroin anywhere. almost all of it is cut with fentanyl. fentanyl represents the third wave of the opioid academic. fentanyl is also an opioid and it satisfies the same craving as prescription pills like oxycontin as well as heroin. the biggest difference is 50 times stronger and so drug dealers use it as a cost saving measure and a lot of times when people think they're buying

coming out of the purdue bankruptcy, a lot of states and localities are saying it is not enough moneyit is not clear the plaintiffs are going to agree. kailey: it is still an open question. the market taking it as if this work to pass. also for j&j, even if they get through the opioids, that is only 2000 of the 100,000 cases they face on their various drugs from the child baby powders, their whispered all. coststs say this could all $20 billion. david: to editorialize a bit, if it does go forward, one thing is the money might actually go to the people who deserve it rather than to the lawyers. nothing against lawyers. on of the concerns in the bankruptcy of purdue, the trustees thing, if we keep litigating this forever, all of themoney will go to of kailey: lawyers. the longer things drag on, it is great news for lawyers but not necessarily the people awaiting. it does beg the question, because these settlements are so small relative to when you look at their revenues, does it incentivize bad behavior because frankly, they can afford to pay out even with all of the thousand cases agai

purdue pharma was ordered to pay $10 million over the course of four years.he money went to a variety of things including lawyers and treatment facilities. but child advocates say not enough was invested in the child welfare system. the report reads, "nearly 6, 900 children are in state care, double the number from a decade ago." officials estimate that more than 80% have been impacted by the drug epidemic. joining me dr. rahul gupta who was quoted in that story, former commissioner for the west virginia bureau of public health, now chief medical and health officer for the march of dimes. this is so important. i appreciate you coming in. during your time as health commissioner you laid out a response plan that was developed by experts at three different universities and it urged officials to direct the settlement money to foster care, to babies born exposed to opioids. where did officials fall short here? >> well, thanks for having me. i think it was very important for us to focus or on where the need is the most. we really didn't see the amount of money, in

maryland's attorney general has filed charges against purdue pharma, accusing them of engagiging in dececeptiveade practices to sell h highly addidictive painkillers such as oxycontin. >> they knew its addictive properties. many people became addicted to heroin because they couldn't afford oxycontntin. they became addicted to certain opioid medications. >> maryland is just one example of how america is struggling with the epidemic. thousands of lawsuits have been filed over the opioid crisis. the targeted every facet of the health care industry, from drugmakers, to pharmacies, to individual doctors. they want the industry to pay up, to recoup the costs for communities grappling with widespread addiction. communities like this one in maryland, where they desperately need help to fight echo -- to fight the epidemic, but they want the pharma industry to admit their wrongdoing, and stop it. brent: stargazers are in for a special treat tonight. one of the most beautiful meteor showers in recent memory is about to peak. all you have to do is look up. you might be able to see 20 meteors traveling at 6

and senator purdue said not a chance in hell. he said why do you say that? he said, because i see the evidence. what are you hearing on behalf of senators if it goes to that end point as of today? >> two points. i asked mitch mcconnell just about an hour ago whether or not when they continue on republican side of the aisle to condemn the democratic process, can they be fair jurorists. he said we have to see what the house sends over to us. again, keep in mind the number is 67. i'll take you down the rabbit hole. 67, two-thirds of vote. but if you have senators absent, we might not get to a trial until january, february. what happens in february? the iowa caucuses, the new hampshire primary. there is nothing written down that senators have to be there or vote. you either vote conviction or innocent. arlen specter said not proven under scottish law. they said you can't vote that way. if you have senators who don't show up or don't vote, that 67 number dwindled. it's two-thirds of who votes. so that could affect the impact there. that's something nobody has rea
