Big corporations bad
9 April 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Another instance of blaming big corporations for a decision made by an individual. Joe Blane, a troubled teen, kills two classmates and it is revealed he took Aptrol, a drug for depression that was sent in the mail to his mother. It's for her but she decides to give it to him because he's causing trouble at school and her boss is on her case about all the calls she's getting. But she's not to blame it's the evil pharmaceutical company who sent it to her. So Joe goes off to a mental hospital and Cabot goes after the company. Give me a break. Another example of a lack of personal responsibility.
