The fates of the members of the FUBI heroin ring mirror the fates of the Purdue Pharma stakeholders when they were put on trial. Jones, who fulfills a role like the Purdue executives, gets the harshest sentence, just like they did. By contrast, Mack is at the top of the organization and gets the lightest sentence, just like the Sacklers did. While the FUBI heroin ring gets significantly heavier sentences than Purdue Pharma, the case raises similar questions about the priorities of the American legal system. Macy asks if it’s fair that people at the highest leadership positions, like Mack and the Sacklers, often get lighter sentences than people in their organizations who did more hands-on work.
