Servants of the Damned

 


Finished reading Enrich's book last night. I was so green to the subject that--for several pages--I thought Jones Day was an individual. Only gradually did I become aware that Enrich is referring to the now infamous law firm responsible for--among other things--defending Donald Trump, Purdue Pharma, R. J. Reynolds, Exxon, and the list goes on and on and . . . on, giving me a renewed appreciation for one of the author's opening quotes from the January 2004 edition of American Lawyer magazine: "From handguns to tobacco, Jones Day defends the powerfully damned and the damned powerful."
