Criminal Overworld: Joseph Beiderman, Don of America's Bipolar Kid Mafia, says chemically lobotomizing and/or murdering the babies of black and catholic americans under the false pretext of diagnosing them with non existing mental disorders is the right thing for himself and other criminals to do

I Was Doing the Right Thing Article

Your reporting on my relationships with pharmaceutical manufacturers
("J&J Emails Raise Issues of Risperdal Promotion," Marketplace, Nov.
25) didn't tell the whole story. My work on pediatric bipolar disorder
focuses on symptoms, impairments and neurobiology -- not only on
medications. The work of my colleagues and myself has provided a
better understanding of this devastating disorder and has led to more
effective treatment options. In fact, others have replicated our small
studies, leading to FDA approval of certain medications as safe and
effective for pediatric use.
The Johnson & Johnson Center, which operated from 2002 to 2005,
conducted research on ADHD and bipolar disorder. I called it the J&J
Center to be transparent about its funding. The center's goal was to
advance science. As a business, J&J naturally sought commercial
applications for our work. But any implication that J&J's interests
interfered with the center's work is wrong. I never owned J&J stock,
and whether the company succeeded financially had no importance to me.
(Indeed, I have published research critical of J&J compounds.) What
does matter to me is the treatment of children and families
experiencing great suffering.
My outside income mentioned in your article was earned over eight
years from many pharmaceutical and nonpharmaceutical sources. In
addition, the $58,169 that J&J reported to Sen. Charles Grassley that
it paid me in 2001 includes a $50,000 educational and research grant
made to Massachusetts General Hospital that wasn't in any way for
personal use. In fact, I earned $3,500 from J&J that year, the amount
I reported to the senator. (The balance represents reimbursement for
legitimate travel expenses).
It greatly concerns me that the Journal has damaged my personal and
professional reputation, and profoundly harmed the field of child
psychiatry.
