If we are going to hold CEO’s responsible for all the bad things that happen to us we are in trouble as a society. For example, someone doesn’t get warranty coverage on their car so they begin to plot revenge? Everyone talks about how great it would be to have national health insurance like Canada and England, but what they forget is that these countries can do this because they limit access to health care. I can see how difficult it can be for people to watch their loved ones die from deadly diseases and they are willing to try any experimental drug no matter what the cost. These expensive drugs don’t always change the outcome or are not yet accepted by the medical community so they are not approved by different countries, or in the case of the USA, different insurance companies. Even Medicare in the USA does not include all therapies and drugs in its CMS formulary. Would people justify going after Medicare? The internet is a godless place where people often say awful things as they can hide behind the veil of anonymity. I hope the jury looks to the nation’s laws not their own prejudices.

Seeing his point of view is one thing. Finding him guilty should be quite easy. If the prosecutor presents a really good case and is lucky with who he or she or they get on the jury.
Check out Irving Younger on Amazon. He was a Professor at the U of MN Law School. He passed while I was there but his work is very interesting. He was a New York trial lawyer.
