John Kapoor, the founder of Insys Therapeutics Inc, could be sentenced to several years in prison and ordered to forfeit up to $113 million for his role in contributing to the US opioid crisis
John Kapoor , the billionaire founder of Insys Therapeutics Inc., leaves the federal courthouse during the trial accusing Insys executives of a wide-ranging scheme to bribe doctors to prescribe an addictive opioid medication, in Boston, Massachusetts, US, March 13, 2019.
US District Court Judge Allison D. Burroughs already has sentenced four other former Insys executives, but her punishments have been less than three years in prison on government recommendations of more than 10 years. From 1999 to 2017, some 400,000 people died from overdoses involving an opioid, including prescription and illicit drugs, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
