- SHED LIGHT ON THE INTERACTIONS - THAT THE SACKLER FAMILY, IN - PARTICULAR DR. RICHARD SACKLER, - HAD WITH EXECUTIVES AT THE - COMPANY DURING THE KEY TIME - PERIOD IN WHICH OXYCONTIN WAS - ING RELEASED INTO THE - MARKETPLACE. - >> Nawaz: WHAT IS THAT - CONNECTION BASED ON WHAT YOU'VE - SEEN SO FAR? - THE E-MAILS THAT WE FOUND INTH - E COURT RECORDS DISCUSS - RICHARD SACKL BECOMING AWRE - AT A VERY EARLY POINT IN - OXYCONTIN'S RELEASE OF CONCERNS - MANAGER WAS EXPG TOCY BENEFIT - DOCTORS ABOUT ABUSE POTENTIAL IN - THE DRUG. - AND DR. SACKLER RESPONDED T - THAT CONCERN BY CALLING FOR A - PRESENTATION SPECIFICALLY IN - WHICH HE SUGGESTED THAT THEPR - ENTATION COULD BE GIVEN TO - SHOW THAT CONTROLLED RELEASED - OPIOIDS LIKE OXYCONTIN WERE LESS - SUBJECT TO ABUSE ADDICTION - CONCERNS AND DIVSION THAN - OTHER OPIOIDS. - AT THE TIME AND SINCE THERE IS

- NO EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT TH. - >> Nawaz: HOW WOULD YOU - CHARACTERIZE THE RESPONSE TO - SOME OF THOSE CONCERNS AT THE - TIME, AND ALSO WH IT - IMPORTANT AT THIS PARTICULAR - POINT IN HISTORY? - >> WELL, SO THIS IS A TIME - RIOD WHEN OXYCONTIS JUST - BEING RELEASED INTO THE MARKET. - EXECUTIVES AT THED COMPANY BAS - ON THE CONCERNS WERE VERY - WORRIED THAT THEY WERE GOING T - SENTIALLY BLOCKED OUT OF - THE MARKET BECAUSE MERCK MED CO, - THE PHARMACY BENEFIT MNAGE - THEIR RAISED THESE CONCERN, - CONTROLLED A RGE PART OF THE - ACCESS TO THE MARKETPLACE. - SO IF MERCK MED DO IS REFUSING - TO COVER THESE DRUGS OUT OF - ABUSE CONCERN, THEN PURDUE - PHARMA IS IN SITUATION WHERE - IT CANNOT DISTRIBUTE ITS - PRODUCTS TO THE EXTET THAT IT - WANTS. - IT CANNOT TAP A VERY LUCRATIVE - MARKET FOR CHRONIC PAIN - PATIENTS. - >> Nawaz:ASEY, YOU MENTIONED - THE CONCERNS. - MERCK MED CO SAITID ADD - COULD BE ONE OF THEIR CONCERNS. - RICHARD SACKLER SAYS, "WE SHOULD - CONSIDER THAT ADDICTY BE A - CONVENIENT WAY TO JUST SAY NO

- QUESTIONS: NOW WHAT? - THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT OF - QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT THE SACKLER - FAMILY KNEW AND WHAT THEY DIDN'T - KNOW. - THGAE IS ONGOING LITION. - THERE IS A TENTATIVE SETTLEMENT. - WHAT DO THESE NEW E-MAILS TELL - US, AND DO TH CHANGE HO - THINGS COULD MOVE FORWARD AT - ALL? - >> THAT'S GOING TO BE A QUESTION - FOR AUTHORITIES ACROSS THE - COUNTRY WHO ARE EVALUATING HOW - THIS CIRCUMSTANCE OUGHT TO BE - RELVED IN TERMS OF THE - FINANCIAL LIABILITIES THAT THE - SACKLER FAMILY HIGH FACE - Y LTIMATR THE ADDICTION - PROBLEMS THAT ARE ONGOING IN - COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. - SO THERE AREATTORNEYS GENERAL, - STATES ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND - OTHER JURISDICTIONS THAT ARE - REFUSING TO SIGN ON TO A - SETTLEMENT WITH THE SACKLER - FAMILY. - ULGHT NOW THAT D RESOLVE - THOSE CONCERNS BECAUSE THEY'RE - CONCERNED THAT THE FAMILY IS NOD - BEING ACCOUNTABLE ENOUGH - FINANCIALLY FOR THE HARM THAT - HAS BEEN CASED. - SO I THINK THAT'S GOING TO BE A - QUESTION IN LIGHT OF THESE - RECORDS THAT FOLKS ARE GOING TO - CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON. - WE'LL HAVE TO SEE WHAT THE - RESULT IS. - >> Nawaz: CASEY, AS YOU - MENTIONED, A LAWYER FOR THE - SACKLER FAMILY IN RESPONSE - YOUR ARTICLE SAYS THERE WAS

SACKLER'S 2015 DEPOSITION IN - WHICH HE SAID, LOOK, I WAS JUST - ASKING A QUESTION HERE AS TO - WHETHER A MEDILLCORRECT - PRESENTATION COULD BE GIVEN TO - SHOW THE CLAIM THAT I'D LIKE TO - MAIT. - BUT I THIN UP TO THE - PUBLIC AND AUTHORITIES TO - CONSIDER WHETHER OR NOT THE - PRESENTATION THAT HE WAS CALLING - FOR HAD AN EFFECT ON MARKETING - OXYCONTIN IN ADEPTIVE WAY

- TO, CEMENT TNSERVATIVE - MAJORITY ON THE SUPREME COURT. - AND THE BOOK TELLS THE STORY OF - THE LENGTHS THANT REPUBLICANS - THE SENATE AND ELSEWHERE WENT TO - TO MAKE SURE THAT HE WAS GOING - GET ACROSS THE FINISH LINE. - >> Woodruff: THERE WERE DOUBTSN - AMONG SOME RVATIVES THAT HE - WAS CONSERVATIVE ENOUGH IN THEIR - VIEWS TO BEGIN WITH, YOU - POINT OUT, HE WAS TOO MUCH OF A - BUY, LOYAL TPRESIDENBUSH. - OTHERS, DEMOCRATS, WHO SAID HE - WAS FAR TOO CONSERVO IVE. - HE AT HIS CORE? - WHAT IS HIS IDEOLOGY? - AS WE SEE ON THE COURT, AND JUST - FROM KNOWINGIM? - WELL, THAT IS PARTLY TO BEED - DETERM - WE HAD ONE TERM OF BRETT - KAGHNAUGH, JUSTICE KAVAN - WHERE HE SHOWED HIMSELF TO BE - SIGNIFICANTLY LESS CONSEATIVE - THAN JUSTICE GORSUCH. - THAT'S NOT TO SAY HE'S NOT - CONSERVATIVE. - HE'S A VERY CONSERVATIVE JUDGE. - BUT HIS CONSERVATISM IS MORE - TOWARD THE CENTER, CLOSER TO THE - CHIEF JUSTICE, WHO IS VER CLOSE - TO THAN IT IS TO THE MOR - EXTREME CONSERVATIVES ON TH
