Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The history of the Sackler dynasty is rife with drama\u2014baroque personal lives; bitter disputes over estates; fistfights in boardrooms; glittering art collections; Machiavellian courtroom maneuvers; and the calculated use of money to burnish reputations and crush the less powerful. The Sackler name has adorned the walls of many storied institutions\u2014Harvard, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Oxford, the Louvre. They are one of the richest families in the world, but the source of the family fortune was vague\u2014until it emerged that the Sacklers were responsible for making and marketing a blockbuster painkiller that was the catalyst for the opioid crisis.

Empire of Pain<\/em> is the saga of three generations of a single family and the mark they would leave on the world, a tale that moves from the bustling streets of early twentieth-century Brooklyn to the seaside palaces of Greenwich, Connecticut, and Cap d\u2019Antibes to the corridors of power in Washington, D.C. It follows the family\u2019s early success with Valium to the much more potent OxyContin, marketed with a ruthless technique of co-opting doctors, influencing the FDA, downplaying the drug\u2019s addictiveness. Empire of Pain<\/em> chronicles the multiple investigations of the Sacklers and their company, and the scorched-earth legal tactics that the family has used to evade accountability.

A masterpiece of narrative reporting, Empire of Pain<\/em> is a ferociously compelling portrait of America\u2019s second Gilded Age, a study of impunity among the super-elite and a relentless investigation of the naked greed that built one of the world\u2019s great fortunes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patrick Radden Keefe’nin Ac\u0131 \u0130mparatorlu\u011fu<\/em> adl\u0131 eseri, bir Viktorya d\u00f6nemi roman\u0131n\u0131n dramatik kapsam\u0131na ve ahlaki g\u00fcc\u00fcne sahip, kurgu d\u0131\u015f\u0131 bir eser. Bu, kimsenin g\u00f6rmek istemeyece\u011fi kadar karl\u0131 ve inkar\u0131n o kadar yerle\u015fik oldu\u011fu, neredeyse kal\u0131tsal olan yolsuzlukla ilgili.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kitap, 20. y\u00fczy\u0131l\u0131n ikinci yar\u0131s\u0131nda ve 21. y\u00fczy\u0131l\u0131n b\u00fcy\u00fck b\u00f6l\u00fcm\u00fcnde \u00e7ok zengin ve \u00e7ok gizemli olan Sackler ailesine odaklan\u0131yor. Gizli kalacaklar\u0131 \u00e7ok \u015fey oldu\u011fu ortaya \u00e7\u0131kacakt\u0131.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keefe, hikayesine 1913’te Brooklyn’de Ukraynal\u0131 bir Yahudi bakkal\u0131n \u00fc\u00e7 erkek \u00e7ocu\u011fundan en b\u00fcy\u00fc\u011f\u00fc olan Arthur Sackler ile ba\u015fl\u0131yor. Arthur ola\u011fan\u00fcst\u00fc bir ki\u015filikti, son derece yetenekli ve daha da motiveydi. K\u0131smen reklam metin yazarl\u0131\u011f\u0131 yaparak, \u00fcniversite ve t\u0131p fak\u00fcltesi arac\u0131l\u0131\u011f\u0131yla kendini finanse etti, psikiyatrist olarak e\u011fitim ald\u0131 ve \u00f6nde gelen bir t\u0131p yay\u0131nc\u0131s\u0131 oldu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ayr\u0131ca iki k\u00fc\u00e7\u00fck erkek karde\u015fi Mortimer ve Raymond’un t\u0131p fak\u00fcltesine gitmesi i\u00e7in para \u00f6dedi ve \u00fc\u00e7\u00fc bir dizi i\u015fletme sat\u0131n ald\u0131 veya kurdu; bunlardan biri, daha sonra ad\u0131n\u0131 Purdue olarak de\u011fi\u015ftirecek olan k\u00fc\u00e7\u00fck bir ila\u00e7 \u015firketi olan Purdue Frederick’di. Eczac\u0131l\u0131k.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bir t\u0131bbi reklam ajans\u0131n\u0131n sahibi olan Arthur, Valium’u yan\u0131lt\u0131c\u0131 ve yanl\u0131\u015f bilgilerle do\u011frudan doktorlara agresif bir \u015fekilde pazarlad\u0131. Arthur’un iddialar\u0131n\u0131n aksine y\u00fcksek ba\u011f\u0131ml\u0131l\u0131\u011fa yol a\u00e7an bir ila\u00e7 olan Valium, 1960’l\u0131 ve 1970’li y\u0131llar\u0131n en \u00e7ok satan ila\u00e7lar\u0131ndan biri haline geldi ve Arthur, sat\u0131\u015flardan sa\u011fl\u0131kl\u0131 bir y\u00fczde kesinti ald\u0131\u011f\u0131ndan emin oldu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gittik\u00e7e zenginle\u015ftik\u00e7e g\u00f6lgede kalmay\u0131 seviyordu ve sahibi oldu\u011fu ya da kontrol etti\u011fi i\u015flerden ad\u0131n\u0131 s\u0131kl\u0131kla uzak tutuyordu. Ama ayn\u0131 zamanda, ailesinin ad\u0131n\u0131 d\u00fcnyan\u0131n en \u00f6nemli sanat galerilerinin, m\u00fczelerinin ve \u00fcniversitelerinin duvarlar\u0131na yazd\u0131rmak i\u00e7in b\u00fcy\u00fck bir kararl\u0131l\u0131\u011fa sahip olan hevesli bir hay\u0131rseverdi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ticari sinsilik ve hay\u0131rsever ilgi aray\u0131\u015f\u0131n\u0131n bu birle\u015fiminde Arthur, karde\u015fleriyle e\u015fle\u015fti. B\u00f6ylece Sackler ad\u0131 Louvre, Tate, Metropolitan ve Guggenheim galerilerinin yan\u0131 s\u0131ra Yale, Harvard ve Oxford \u00fcniversiteleri ile bir dizi t\u0131p fak\u00fcltesinde \u00f6ne \u00e7\u0131kt\u0131.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Karde\u015fler d\u00fcnya \u00e7ap\u0131nda a\u011f\u0131rland\u0131 ve hi\u00e7 kimse onlar\u0131n paralar\u0131n\u0131 nas\u0131l kazand\u0131klar\u0131 konusunda fazla endi\u015felenmedi. Ancak Arthur ilk servetini Valium’un \u015f\u00fcpheli pazarlamas\u0131ndan elde ettiyse de karde\u015fleri, OxyContin adl\u0131 bir ilac\u0131 satmak i\u00e7in bu taktikleri uygulayarak daha da b\u00fcy\u00fck bir servet kazanmaya devam etti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Morfinden iki kat daha g\u00fc\u00e7l\u00fc olan OxyContin, Purdue taraf\u0131ndan geli\u015ftirilip patentlendi ve a\u011fr\u0131 \u00e7eken herkesi<\/em> hedef ald\u0131. Morfin, kanser hastalar\u0131n\u0131 tedavi etmek i\u00e7in kullan\u0131lan ila\u00e7t\u0131 ve t\u0131p kurumu taraf\u0131ndan genel hastalar i\u00e7in fazla g\u00fc\u00e7l\u00fc ve ba\u011f\u0131ml\u0131l\u0131k yap\u0131c\u0131 olarak g\u00f6r\u00fcl\u00fcyordu. Ancak Purdue, yeni yava\u015f sal\u0131nan ilac\u0131n di\u011fer opioidlere g\u00f6re daha az ba\u011f\u0131ml\u0131l\u0131k yapt\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131 ve \u015firketin iddialar\u0131 test edilmeden G\u0131da ve \u0130la\u00e7 \u0130daresi (FDA) taraf\u0131ndan onayland\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131 iddia etti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Karar, bir y\u0131l sonra Purdue Pharma i\u00e7in \u00e7al\u0131\u015fan ve y\u0131lda yakla\u015f\u0131k 400.000 dolar de\u011ferinde bir ba\u015flang\u0131\u00e7 \u200b\u200bpaketiyle ortaya \u00e7\u0131kan bir FDA yetkilisi taraf\u0131ndan al\u0131nd\u0131. O s\u0131rada Purdue, Raymond’un o\u011flu Richard Sackler’in rehberli\u011fi alt\u0131ndayd\u0131. Titiz bir patrondu, sat\u0131\u015f elemanlar\u0131ndan s\u00fcrekli olarak daha fazla sat\u0131\u015f talep ediyordu ve OxyContin’in b\u00fcy\u00fck pazarlama ba\u015far\u0131s\u0131na e\u015flik eden artan ba\u011f\u0131ml\u0131l\u0131k ve \u00f6l\u00fcm hikayeleriyle g\u00f6r\u00fcn\u00fc\u015fte ilgilenmiyordu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keefe, ba\u015fl\u0131ca Sackler’lar\u0131n, a\u00e7g\u00f6zl\u00fcl\u00fcklerinin, gururlar\u0131n\u0131n ve an\u0131tsal yetki duygusunun y\u0131k\u0131c\u0131 portrelerini \u00e7iziyor.

Opioid ba\u011f\u0131ml\u0131l\u0131\u011f\u0131 ABD’de salg\u0131n haline gelirken, sat\u0131\u015flar\u0131 ve suiistimalleri sonucunda multi milyarder haline gelen aile, g\u00f6zlerden uzak kalmaya \u00f6zen g\u00f6sterdi. Merakl\u0131lar\u0131n \u00e7ok uza\u011fa gitmesini engellemek i\u00e7in bir grup avukat haz\u0131r bulunuyordu. Hikayeyi takip eden bir New York Times gazetecisi, opioid krizi hakk\u0131nda Sacklers’\u0131n ad\u0131n\u0131 veren bir kitap yazd\u0131\u011f\u0131nda, aile, gazetenin onu konu hakk\u0131nda daha fazla yazmaktan al\u0131koymas\u0131n\u0131 sa\u011flamak i\u00e7in g\u00fcc\u00fcn\u00fc kulland\u0131.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bu arada, \u00f6l\u00fc say\u0131s\u0131 artmaya devam ettik\u00e7e (450.000’den fazla Amerikal\u0131n\u0131n, OxyContin’in en \u00e7ok satan\u0131 oldu\u011fu \u00e7e\u015fitli opioidler nedeniyle \u00f6ld\u00fc\u011f\u00fc tahmin ediliyor) Sacklers, Purdue’den tahminen 14 milyar dolar \u00e7\u0131kard\u0131 ve bu daha sonra \u00e7ok say\u0131da ki\u015fiye ge\u00e7ti. \u00f6zel zevklerini ve elbette hay\u0131rseverli\u011fi sa\u011flamak i\u00e7in offshore paravan \u015firketler ve banka hesaplar\u0131.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sonunda, kamuoyu bask\u0131s\u0131 alt\u0131nda h\u00fck\u00fcmet Purdue’ye yeti\u015fti\u011finde \u015firket iflas ba\u015fvurusunda bulundu ve sekt\u00f6rdeki en iyi avukatlardan baz\u0131lar\u0131n\u0131n korumas\u0131 alt\u0131nda Sackler’lar her t\u00fcrl\u00fc su\u00e7lamadan kurtuldu, hala yanl\u0131\u015f bir \u015fey yapmad\u0131klar\u0131 konusunda kararl\u0131lard\u0131.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
