kinds of stories before.

Well, in 1995,

a new kind of pain pill was introduced.

And what exactly is
your title, Dr. Banks?

I am the Chief of Medicine
at McCrae General.

Physicians were told that
it was not as addictive

as other painkillers.

Patients were promised
relief without risk.

It was hailed as a wonder drug.

Unfortunately,
none of that was accurate.

These medicines are highly addictive.

Like a poisoned river or polluted air,

the damage was subtle at first.

Ms. Stafford, what do you do?

I run a home that takes in children

whose parents have been deemed

temporarily unfit to care for them.

Manmade disasters take time

to reveal the true

I handled 13 children.

This year, so far, I've had 87,

almost all of them the
children of opioid addicts.

Our communities are being ravaged.

75% of all arrests are drug-related.

Our people are dying.

My three deputies have handled

47 overdose deaths since January.

And yet, even now, at this moment,

the epidemic continues to spread.

Why? Because
the defendant's pain clinics

sold more pills this
year than ever before.

More pills, even though
the people whose job it is

to take care of us are saying...

My hospital is strained
to the breaking point.

An entire generation of kids
are losing their parents.

My town is dying.

I should not be the one
speaking with you here today.

Your DA, Jason Glassman,
should, but he can't.

Because his wife recently became

the 48th overdose death
this year in the county.

Dead because of pills...

that trace back to one
of Dr. Pyle's clinics.

Clinics that dare to call themselves

places of healing, when in reality,

all they do is exploit

Uh, so when we found his wife,

it was bad enough she died.

We all knew it was the
pills that hooked her.

She had those empty bottles
right where we left 'em.

But she, um... she also
had some burnt tinfoil

Heroin. She was smoking heroin.

and we'll get back to you
first thing in the morning.

You can't tell anyone,
not if you wanna win the case.

If we were the defense,
we would have no obligation

to turn over evidence
that could hurt us.

As prosecutors, we have to turn over

any exculpatory evidence.

- Sydney.

If she was using heroin,
Pyle is the reason.

I'm not saying we break the law.

I'm just saying... I'm wondering,
since we're not real DAs...

We are real DAs.

If the jury hears
"heroin," you are done.

They will no longer see some sweet lady

who was led astray.

They will see a drug addict
who crossed the line.

- Bri, hold on that is not...
- I'm sorry, it's true.

Well, doesn't that just prove our point

that pills led to that...

Nuh-uh-uh, weakness led to that,

not some doctor, not
some pill mill... weakness.

I think, maybe,
your judgment is clouded here.

Actually, my experience
is informing my judgment.

Thank you. I know

Look, she won't be a victim.

You just proposed
large-scale insurance fraud.

Did they go for it?

Turned out, they didn't

I have to call the boss.

Come back same time tomorrow?

I went to clinics I hadn't
been to further out,

found two that said yes,

- Pyle.
- Yeah.

Look, forget about "public nuisance."

You get these guys to flip,

Now, hold on. Y'all are working

Can't use that tape.

Oh, we don't need to.

You think this is the first time

they ever did a deal like that?
