This should be a wake up call for people to understand how the media controls the narrative Thank you for the votes and awards

This is also exactly what attorneys are supposed to do in these cases. Put together a narrative of facts in a way that is tangible at least to part of the population. Mission accomplished.

The only part I’ll disagree on is “facts”. Defense attorneys make shit up constantly to create “reasonable” doubt even when there is none.

Yeah idk why everyone is acting like this dude is a superhero. He seems kind of like an asshole trying to slander every medical professional who worked with this woman. I doubt some of these people are going to be able to continue working after this

Speaking from the perspective of someone who works in the medical field:

The providers were extraordinarily negligent in their lack of coordination of care and anyone who prescribes a Benzo on top of Ambien on top of Trazodone has no business practicing medicine.

My wife had dementia. They gave her trazadone. I let her have 2 doses. She was dangerous.

More so our daughter that came by to help with her care. Pushed her and said she didn't belong here. Swept off tables and threw stuff at walls. She screamed I wasn't her husband. Had to do a stay in the hospital to calm down.

I’m so sorry to hear that, but glad to know that it was addressed! Just goes to show that no matter how “tame” a drug may be according to conventional wisdom, there’s always going to be folks it just doesn’t play nice with.

The reddington guy? He’s objectively a good criminal defense attorney…. Not a superhero, and I’ve seen better in civil cases. Not an asshole, I think some of these providers on the witness stand are nervous, but many of them are fucking atrocious and probably should get less work. He’s going his job very well.

Realistically no one will remember a single one of their names tho, so you can rest easy. They never do.

I thought this after the Ahmaud Arbery case. But no, they’re all still working.
