14. it's an absolute outrage that they got away with it.

The people that blame them are despicable. They'd lost their home to a fire and were staying with relatives temporarily. They didn't know about the drugs until after they moved there, and did everything they could to get away. They were scheduled to leave the next day.

And it is horrible that the county had said they would pay the medical bills and reneged.

The whole situation is simply obscene.

I hope they sue and win enough money that they never have to work again.
