Why? Why did she lose her job and career? What shitty workplace would fire her without a court judgement on the issue?
This part isn't explained in any way I can see, only that she was found in possession of what turned out to be completely legal remedies. Here being fired for that would probably fall under unjust firing, and cost the workplace about a years compensation.
USA is a shitty country where psychopathy rules the day.
Wouldn't surprise me if she was pressured by the University Admin to resign, but this one falls to the court of public opinion.
Thanks, I somehow accidentally skipped that?
dint know odensetron was illegal to posses, that isnt yours.
Yes sorry, I thought I had read it all, but somehow skipped that part?

Another person replying with nothing other than an insult just to try triggering? Do I need to block you too?
