Judge Rejects Sacklers' Bid to Save Mansion

A US bankruptcy judge has rejected Richard Sackler's bid to save his Connecticut mansion, which is tied to a $7.4 billion opioid settlement. The mansion was pledged toward Purdue Pharma's opioid settlement.

The decision was made on October 28, with the judge rejecting both requests from Richard Sackler and his wife to stop the sale of the mansion.

The $7.4 billion opioid deal is part of a larger settlement related to the opioid crisis in the US.

No further details on the next steps for the mansion's sale are available in the report.
