Great to hear. Stuff like this degrades basically belief that we presently have rule of law in America.

Imagine trying to pull this shit as an individual. You burn down some apartment complex and then just create an empty company and assign all of your liabilities to that company and say "you've got to sue them, I've got no liability here". You'd get laughed out of the courtroom. But this came pretty close to working for J & J.

When I see looters lighting businesses on fire or breaking windows, I tend to think back to stuff like this or civil forfeiture and say "seems fair". I think the establishment underestimates the extent to which normal people hold this doctrine and feel ok with an all means are justified attitude because they've heard too many stories like this where the law doesn't apply to powerful interests.
