A new criminal case raises questions about how some in the medical community are pushing the use of addictive painkillers. Six former executives and managers from arizona based drug maker face conspiracy charges what a federal prosecutor calls a racketeering scheme. Investigators say they bribed doctors to prescribe the companys pain medication even when it wasnt necessary. Jim axelrod has reported extensively on the opioid epidemic. The former employees of a drug manufacturer are alleged to have rewarded doctors for prescribing their spray version of the drug fentanyl even when it wasnt medically appropriate. Every day in this country, 46 people die from an overdose of prescription painkillers. As millions of americans have discovered, it doesnt take much to become addicted and the experts battling this epidemic are focusing on the way the drugs are pretty bad. Prescribed. My body would feel sick. It was like totally like the most horrible flu you ever felt if i didnt take the pill. Reporter after an appendix surge 14 years ago that trey laird say he became hooked on opioid painkillers. To be able to walk out of the hospital with 90 pills and two refills on that prescription and having 270 pills without ever seeing a doctor in retrospect is pretty ridiculous. Reporter for six years he says he wasnt the husband or the father he wanted to be. The shame and embarrassment and guilt that comes to the fact i dont know how i got here but i dont know how to get out of it. I had no clue how to get out of it. Reporter the centers for Disease Control and prevention says the United States is in the midst of an opioid overdose epidemic. The Agency Reports doctors wrote 59 million prescriptions for painkillers in 2012, enough for every american adult. As many as 1 in 4 people currently struggle with addiction after longterm opioid treatments for noncancer pain. Excessive prescribing for excessive number of conditions that are indram national outside of the standard of care that is driving some of what we are seeing currently. Reporter the problem is back in the spotlight, after the arrests of a half dozen former executives and manages at insys thera therapeutics including the ceo. The drug i brought today you can spray the drug underneath their tongue tongue. Reporter three years ago, michael bab ich demonstrated the drug which is delivered through a spray. The medication which the Company First sold in 2012 racked up 329 million in sales last year. According to the indictment, the defendants conspired with one another to use bribes and kickbacks for doctors who wrote large numbers of prescriptions, most often for patients who did not have cancer. The scheme allegedly funneled tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars to practitioners, including one whom a Sales Representative boasted in an email, was running a very shady pill mill and only accepts cash. That is the exception or the rule . That is clearly the exception. There is egregious criminal irking behavior out there but that is the 1 that is giving 99 of the bad name. Most of the misprescribing that occurs out there, i believe, is actually welled and just due to inappropriate lack of additional education. The issue did not novel overnight and resolved overnight. Reporter she says the drug industry supports changes including the creation of evidencebased guidelines to lay out exactly when opioid painkillers are appropriate and the new formulations to make drugs resistant to certain types of abuse. As for trey laird he has been clean since 2011 and runs a sober living house in connecticut. He suggests he might have been able to prevent his addiction if he was able to ask for more painkillers in person. If i need a refill i should have to go back to the doctor and say im still filling the pain and have them write a script. I needed to look northbousomeboe eye and say i need more pills. The lawyer plans to plead not guilty to charges including racketeering and conspiracy. We reached on to the other the defendants did not hear back. Insys released a statement saying we continue to cooperate with all relevant authorities in its Ongoing Investigation and is committed to that. An 11yearold was home alone when thieves broke in.

Anthony not done i can guarantee you that. Im hall of famer jerry west and my life is basketball. But that doesnt stop my afib from leaving me at a higher risk of stroke. Thatd be devastating. I took warfarin for over 15 years until i learned more about oncedaily xarelto. A latest generation blood thinner. Then i made the switch. Xarelto® significantly lowers the risk of stroke in people with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. It has similar effectiveness to warfarin. Warfarin interferes with vitamin k and at least six blood clotting factors. Xarelto® is selective targeting one critical factor of your bodys natural clotting function. For people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. Like all blood thinners, dont stop taking xarelto without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. While taking you may bruise more easily, and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto can cause serious, and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising or tingling.

There is more than real news ahead including president elect Trump Taking Office with a lower Approval Rating than his predecessors. Usa today susan paige is here with a new poll that says half of mr. Trumps supporters dont mind if he abandons his Campaign Promises. First, heres a look at todays eye opener at 8 00. A manhunt is under way for the person thought to be responsible for all this heartache and damage. President elect donald trump briefly emerged from his Maralago Club and weighed in publicly first on mondays terror attack. Families in mexico are now mourning the dead. Three children who did survive are likely to be transferred to a burn center in texas. Uber selfdriving car experiment in california has hit an unmovable road block. The ride hailing giant pulled its fleet off the streets of San Francisco. In britain, a royal cold is upsetting the queens Christmas Plans and raising concerns about her health. The queen and Prince Phillip are famously robust for their age. Prince phillip bragged to a doctor a couple of weeks ago wondering why he hadnt had the flu in 40 years. The doctor responded maybe because he doesnt take the subway like everybody else. A lot of celebrities are revealing what gifts they got their loved ones. That is a big trend this year. Yeah. Yeah. For example, bill clinton gave hillary an at least you won the popular vote coffee mug im Norah Odonnell with Anthony Mason and alex wagner of cbs this Morning Saturday. Charlie and gayle are enjoying time off. A massive manhunt is spreading across europe for a suspect in the truck attack on a Christmas Market in berlin, germany. German officials now say two americans were injured in the attack that killed 12 people. One of the americans remains in the hospital. The other has been released. The europe wide alert names the suspect as anis amri a native of tunisia. And list six falls names and nationalities. They warn the man is armed and dangerous. German Officials Say he entered the country seeking asylum in july last year. But his application was rejected. He was supposed to be deported in june but it never happened. Amri put on a u. S. Nofly list five months ago. Charlie dagata is in berlin where shoppers are returning to that Christmas Market. Charlie, good morning. Reporter good morning. Well, they have reopened the marketplace just this morning. This place had been an entire crime scene, is now open for business. This is the exact area where the truck came in, coming down from that road and jumping the curb and barreling at this packed marketplace 40 Miles Per Hour andtening stalls in its path. People here are somber and nobody is smiling. The Christmas Lights are back on but there is no music. This is really just an exercise that the government has been encouraging of defiance and support to mark what happened that night to provide some sort of security it doesnt happen again. And just to pay their respects, and just to give the message that essentially that germany will not be defeated by terrorism. Norah . Charlie, thank you so much. Charlie dagata in berlin. President elect trump take the oath of office less than a month. A new usa today poll shows he has less than 41 Approval Rating and significantly lower than previous president elects. The poll also looks at president obamas legacy and who could be a democratic challenger in 2020. Washington bureau chief susan paige is here. What does it mean trumps Approval Rating for the honeymoon period a new president has . It means he hasnt had the boost we have seen other modern president s get. Even george w. Bush, remember that contested election in 2000 had Approval Rating of 50 or so at this point. Donald trump is not viewed favorably even by the people who voted for him. He got 46 of the vote. His favorable rating in our poll is just 41 . 16 of his own voters either dont have a favorable view of him or arent sure. He clearly has some work to do in convincing americans he is the right person for the job that he has won. Jobs are a top issue among people in your poll. What do you think president elect trumps cabinet picks mean about his economic policies at this point . We have a lot to learn about that. Its a more establishment, i think, setup of nominations than we thought we might see. He had kind of a populace message in his campaign and dont see that in the cabinet picks but see unity among americans who voted for him and didnt keeping jobs in this country and far outdistancing any other concern they had. It seems they had ideas on following out on immigration. The president elect was asked about the berlin attack and seemed to double down on his hardline position about a muslim ban. What do his supporters want in the polling you found . Even those who voted for him he should do what he needs to do even if its reversing positions. 39 said we want him to do exactly what he said he was going to do during the campaign. And issues for intent . For intent. Immigration issues like lock her up and investigating Hillary Clinton rank low on the list of concerns each among his own supporters. People are focused on jobs, primary. Secondarily, on fighting terrorism. News this morning about Kellyanne Conway, the first female Campaign Manager to have the person elected. She is going to take a job inside the west wing. I talked to her about this last week. She said she was coming to washington but thinking on working on the outside group created to push president elect trumps agenda. But she said it was possible she would be inside. She is interesting. She is a pretty relentless spokesperson and been a very public face for donald trump. And she has pushed back with him at times. Remember when mitt romney was being considered for secretary of state . Yeah. She was very public in saying that was going to be a mistake. She told me that donald trump does not mind people who speak up. That is what he likes and that is the position she is going to be in in the white house. One interesting thing in your poll regarding president obamas legacy was that the Affordable Care act came out at his biggest achievement but also his biggest failure. What does that say where we are . It says we are pretty polarized and the Affordable Care act which is a promise we think republicans plan to go through with, plan to repeal the Affordable Care because its going to continue to really divide this nation for people who support president obama. They think that is the best thing did he in eight years. For people who oppose him, they say it is the worst. Ive heard interesting in that 90minute meeting that president obama and president elect trump had in the oval house and president obama taught donald trump about a lot about the Affordable Care act that may have changed his mind and doesnt want to embarrass the president in terms of the appeal. Also the reality that the top five states with the highest enrollment in 2016 were all states that donald trump won. Big reporting today from the New York Times about that. Republican congress has voted to repeal it over and over again. You know . This is a promise i think that republicans plan to follow through on.

But construction almost ruined the everglades decades ago. Ahead we visit the park to do an extraordinary ecosystem that is not found anywhere else on the planet. Time to show you some of the mornings headlines from around the globe. Wall street journal says the percentage of Young Americans living at home hit a high last year. Almost 40 of 18 to 34yearolds lived with parents and other family members. That is the largest percentage in 75 years since just after the end of the great depression. The number has been rising since 2005. Trend is driven by high housing costs and people getting married later. Usa today says pope francis took time out from saving souls to buy shoes.

The whipped cream shortage happened after an explosion at one of only five nitrus oxide plants that supply this country and they are owned by just two companies. There goes new years eve its a wash our ongoing series of america the beautiful celebrates 100 years of the National Park service. Today, we take you to the everglades. The southern florida swamp is the largest subtropical wilderness in the u. S. Jeff glor learned about the park that almost destroyed the natural wonder and out how it survived and the threats to its future. Reporter good morning. Florida would look a lot different if this never happened. A timeless bond over an ancient place and it proved that a couple of committed souls to change the course of history. Do people worry about the gators and the snakes . Well, they do for a while. Reporter on a swamp walk in the everglades, clyde butcher, a photographer whose prints have made him famous showed us why this part of florida, this river of grass, full of sun and cyprus, is on special. Its a living, breathing organism. This is prime evil. You get out in this and you lose all touch of reality. That is reality out there. There is no road. There is no trails. You just go. Reporter no roads. No trails. But it almost wasnt so. Conservationist fear that the depth core would become a huge commercial operation. Reporter in the mid 1960s plans were aggressively underway to build the Worlds Largest airport in south florida and a complex five times as big as the airport in miami. One runway was already built. It doesnt make any difference what kind of promise they have made. Reporter until a bulldog named joe browder got involved. If they could just drag this thing out for a while, then eventually they will get everything they want out there any way. Reporter browder a former local tv reporter in miami hooked up with Nathaniel Reed. You had a chemistry that said we need to save this area . Its final. This is the beginning of the end. If this goes forward, kiss the keys goodbye. Kiss florida goodbye. Reporter kiss south florida goodbye . Kiss south florida goodbye. Reporter they talked about the challenges they faced during an interview. These are people with a lot of money who invested in a few thousands acres here and there. Enormous visions of wealth pouring into their land. If it could only be drained. Reporter despite a motorist bounty being put on both of their heads, browder and reed took the fight all the way to the oval office. It was a time reed says when politicians on both sides of the aisle were looking to earn their socalled green spurs, including president richard nixon. He cancelled the massive jet port project and its lone runway was limited to training flights. This september, nearly 50 years after the fight, browder died after a sudden illness. Hi, hi. Reporter last month, we met up with his wife louise. Her first trip back since her husbands passing and her first time seeing Nathaniel Reed in years. What is it like for you to be here now, again . Oh, well. Its beautiful. I feel him everywhere reporter everybody that ive talked to, so far, says if joe browder werent around, south florida would look completely different. It would. He understood the human ecosystem of Coalition Building the way he understood the ecosystem of big cyprus in the everglades. I mean, he understood the different roles everybody could play. Reporter if nat and joe hadnt been around, what would this we probably would be in a walmart right now. Can you imagine being being walmart . Gosh, stern. Reporter but the struggle to save the everglades didnt end with the fight over the jet port. Decade of new damage has slowed the natural flow of water from north to south. In 2000 the senate by a vote of 851 passed a 7. 8 billion dollar bill to restore the everglades for the next century. But the status of that project remains murky. Clyde butcher is pessimistic. He thinks the everglades could be gone in 50 years. Nat reed remains hopeful. Youre in the middle of a totally unique ecosystem found no where else on earth. Its been butchered and drained and diked in and polluted and its still alive and we have every opportunity in your lifetime, not mine, but in your lifetime, of seeing a highly functioning everglade system if the American People say they want it. Its all doable. Reporter it just takes willpower . It takes willpower and commitment. Reporter reversing the existing damage in the everglades will take time and money. By one estimate about 3 billion. And at least 15 years. But this is such a massive project and such a massive area that all of those numbers are difficult to come by. If the money has been passed by the florida senate, how come its not moving forward . It was but the projects with the army corps of engineers change. The Development Changes in florida which means the water that flows down from lake okeechobee changes. Willpower. What reed said, yes. Its a natural treasure. Jeff, thanks for that. Tomorrow on cbs this morning, we continue to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the National Park service. John blackstone takes us there. All of the things a National Park could offer but right in the middle of a city . Right in the middle of a city. You can sit with the ranger around the camp fire and have smores right in the middle of San Francisco. That is tomorrow. Next, how vice President Joe Biden has helped to write the history of america. Ahead in an emotional note to self he explains why working as a public defender and always win. Especially in my business. With slow internet from the phone company, you cant keep up. Youre stuck, watching spinning wheels and progress bars until someone else scoops your story. Switch to comcast business. With highspeed internet up to 10 gigabits per second. You wouldnt pick a slow race car. Then why settle for slow internet . Comcast business. Built for speed. Built for business. Joe biden has less than a months left in office serving as our 47th Vice President. He was elected to the senate when he was just 29 years old. He spent 45 years of his life working for the United States government, serving the public. In the spring, Vice President biden looked back on his remarkable life and career in our ongoing series note to self. Reporter dear joe. Youre only 12. Your stutter is debilitating and it embarrasses you and the bullies are vicious. Listen to mom when she says, bravery resides in every heart and yours is fierce and clear. Listen to dad when he says, joey, when you get knocked down, get up get up because if you listen, youll summon the bravery to overcome the stutter and youll learn to stand up to bullies. Youll learn from dad who moved the family to look for work that a job is about a lot more than a paycheck. Its about your dignity. Its about respect. Hi, how are you . Joe biden is my name. That is why youll follow your heart. And serve your community. Your state and your country. In tolerance for the abuse of power will drive you to stand up for civil rights. Dam it, we have favorites in sfrik. The favorites are the people who are being repressed. Because you listened, youll live a life fully consistent with what you were taught by mom and dad and your faith. That you should say what you mean and mean what you say. Leading by the power of example will define you and, one day, youll find yourself forging your relationship with the jesuit pope who embodies that universal truth. But youll also learn early and later in your life that reality has a way of intruding. His wife and daughter were killed in an Automobile Accident and his two young sons severely injured. For the first time in my life i understood how someone could consciously decide to commit suicide. He was sworn in in the hospital at my bedside. As a single parent, he decided to be there, to put us to bed, to be there when we woke up from a bad dream. One day youll be on top of the world. Im beau biden and joe biden is my dad. Only to be brought down in a flash with the profound loss and a grief that leaves a black hole in your heart, questions of faith in your soul, and anger, anger beyond rage. Beau biden passed away from brain cancer. His illness had not been widely publicized. Reporter parents never expect to have a child to predecease them. Never. That is when youll have to dig deep and live with what mom taught you. That out of everything terrible that happens, something good will come if you look hard enough. Youll hold on with faith and pure grit. You will be blessed with the love that will anchor you as deeply as your faith. I love you. Youre the love of my life and the life of my love. Your bond with your children and your grandchildren will be your redemption. Because of a family grounded in an unconditional love in loyalty and the passage of friends and strangers, youll get up, youll keep going, and youll give back. You realize that countless people have suffered equally or more. Thank you with much less support. Youre working today . And much less reason to wanting to get back up. But they do. They get up. They keep going. So must you. Youll learn what it means to be an american. There is no quit in america. Being there for your family and your friend, serving your country, building real relationships, even with people with whom you vehemently disagree. That is america, made up of ordinary people like, you capable of doing extraordinary things. And one day, when you graduate from law school, youll decide to become a public defender. This march will not continue. In the midst of the epic struggle for civil rights. Youll be walking the streets on the east side of wilmington much of which has been burned to the ground after your heroes were assassinated. Dr. Martin luther king, the e posle of nonviolence in the Civil Rights Movement has been shot to death in memphis, tennessee. Forty years later youll stand on the platform of east wilmington overlooking the east side. Wilmington, a nation, will no longer be in flames, but awaiting a new ripple of hope. Its been a long time coming. But, tonight, change has come to america. Youll be waiting for a young black man inspired by the dream of a king, coming from philadelphia to pick you up, take you on 124mile trip to washington to be sworn in as president and Vice President of the United States of america. I, Joseph Robinette biden deserve to serve. Progress is never easy, but always possible. I believe in change because i believe in you. And things do get better on our march toward a more perfect union. That is the history of the journey of america and, believe it or not, because you listened to mom and dad, youll help write it. Keep the faith, joey. Hes a great man, the Vice President. Yes. Amazing life. Amazing life. Extraordinary life. I heard someone once say you can judge the quality of your life by the quality of the relationships you have. And i think that is sort of a hallmark of the Vice President , you know, to have good relationships. He said in that piece are everyone, with everyone. On both sides of the aisle he has a lot of people really respect him. Yes. Youre watching cbs this morning. We asked woman to smell two body washes andi prefer b. Favorite. B. What was a. Bath and bodyworks. And their favorite. Suave. Really . I am impressed. Three fragrances preferred over bath and body works. Let it go let it go a giant panda conquered this snowman at the toronto zoo but his success did not last long. Video shows what happened when the panda scratched and climbed his way up.

I was on my way to work, the next thing you know, i was on the ground. The trash truck ran over both my legs. I had sixteen surgeries. I dont sleep through the night unless i have my medicine.
