Kentucky sues Walgreens for its role in the opioid crisis
Angelica LaVito 20 hrs ago

Kentucky has sued Walgreens for its role in the state's opioid epidemic.

Attorney General Andy Beshear filed the suit against Walgreens for its dual role as a distributor and a pharmacy, saying it allegedly failed to monitor its own operations and shipped and dispensed large amounts of opioids.

Beshear said Walgreens flooded Kentucky with opioid prescriptions at its more than 70 locations across the state, "directly contributing to the state's drug epidemic."

Typical Democrat Moron, just like his old man who nearly ruined this state.

Yeah this one has me scratching my head too since I heard it this morning on TV.

It seems to me that the 5 pain management clinics that were raided in the Louisville area yesterday have done more to fuel the opioid crisis in the area more than Walgreens did.

But Louisville is an untouchable area because nearly ALL the state politicos have to receive the anointing from Louisville to go on to win state offices.

But going after a larger NATIONAL corporation and blaming them for a crisis that Government has helped to create - is the tried and true mechanics of the Left, which Beshear is.
