The head of a now-defunct Massachusetts pharmacy was sentenced Monday to nine years in prison for his role in a 2012 meningitis outbreak that killed 76 people and left hundreds of others with debilitating infections.

Barry Cadden, the owner and head pharmacist of New England Compounding Center, was cleared earlier this year of murder charges but convicted of racketeering and fraud in connection with the outbreak, which the Department of Justice has called the largest public health crisis ever caused by a pharmaceutical product.

76 people dead and he gets 9 years. He should be rotting there till he dies
Hopefully the DA will appeal
 
plenty of INJUSTICE in the land of, "and justice for all" .................. pretty much a sham for many ......................


someone once asked me about people having rights & I told them, "if you have a big back account there are your rights but once you run out of money to pay your attorneys then you have no rights"

same could be said for justice; the more money you have the more injustice you can weasel from those that seek justice .........
