PHILADELPHIA (AP) - A Philadelphia jury on Tuesday awarded $8 billion in
punitive damages against Johnson & Johnson and one if its subsidiaries
over a drug the companies made that the plaintiff's attorneys say is
linked to the abnormal growth of female breast tissue in boys.

Johnson and Johnson immediately denounced the award after the jury's
decision in the Court of Common pleas, saying it's "excessive and
unfounded" and vowing immediate action to overturn it.

The antipsychotic drug Risperdal is at the center of the lawsuit, with the
plaintiff's attorneys arguing it's linked to abnormal growth of female
breast tissue in boys, an incurable condition known as gynecomastia.

Johnson & Johnson used an organized scheme to make billions of dollars
while illegally marketing and promoting the drug, attorneys Tom Kline and
Jason Itkin said in a statement.

Kline and Itkin said that Johnson & Johnson was "a corporation that valued
profits over safety and profits over patients." Thousands of lawsuits have
been filed over the drug, but the attorneys said this was the first in
which a jury decided whether to award punitive damages and came up with an
amount.

Johnson & Johnson said in a statement on its website it was confident that
the award would be overturned, calling it "grossly disproportionate" with
the initial compensatory damage award and "a clear violation of due
process."

Johnson & Johnson said the court's exclusion of key evidence left it
unable to present a meaningful defense, including what they said was a
drug label that "clearly and appropriately outlined the risks associated
with the medicine" or Risperdal's benefits for patients with serious
mental illness. They also said the plaintiff's attorneys failed to present
any evidence of actual harm.

"This decision is inconsistent with multiple determinations outside of
Philadelphia regarding the adequacy of the Risperdal labeling, the
medicine's efficacy, and findings in support of the company," Johnson &
Johnson said. "We will be immediately moving to set aside this excessive
and unfounded verdict."

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.

The Obama-led Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS)
approved Uranium One in fall 2010. With a little luck, we'll see
compulsive liar Hillary Clinton in jail before she dies.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.

Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.
