    Jeffrey B. Simon, trial attorney and author of the book 'Last Rights: The Fight to Save the Seventh Amendment.' Discusses the $1.8 billion settlement from Johnson & Johnson related to opioids, and the role of Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family in the opioid epidemic.

      - Purdue Pharma, owned by the Sackler family, is accused of starting the prescription opioid epidemic by overpromoting OxyContin as less addictive and more effective than it actually is.

      - The civil justice system has been undermined by legislative initiatives and tort reform, which favor corporations over consumer rights and public safety.
