RAPP, short for Relatives Against Purdue Pharma... An activist group who testified at hearings, lent support at whistle-blower trials and marched outside pharmaceutical-funded physician meetings to make their voices heard to bring awareness and education towards much-needed changes with the opioid crisis in America.
Their leader was Ed Bisch, an I.T. worker from Philadelphia who’d lost his 18-year-old son, Eddie, in 2001. They called him the Godfather because he’d brought them together in the first place, via his website, OxyKills, shortly after Eddie’s death.
As for the Godfather, Ed Bisch still assumes his position every morning at his computer. “Purdue has never given a dime to the people they enslaved, I’d like to see anyone addicted get access to help, but it’s still going to be a mess.”
“I was so naïve in the beginning,” he added. Today, none of us can afford to be naïve about the intentions of a drug company — or the ability of government regulators to protect us from those who put profits above the public good.
