New York uncovers $1 billion in transfers from offshore accounts to Purdue Pharma’s Sackler family.

The architects of the American opioid crisis are now attempting to shield their assets to avoid being held accountable. From the NY AG:

While the Sacklers continue to lowball victims and skirt a responsible settlement, we refuse to allow the family to misuse the courts in an effort to shield their financial misconduct. The limited number of documents provided to us so far underscore the necessity for compliance with every subpoena,” said New York Attorney General Letitia James in a statement.

I wonder why they haven’t been criminally prosecuted.
