In sentencing Courtney to 30 years incarceration, the judge imposed a sentence longer than that recommended under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines. The guidelines would have yielded a sentence of up to 22 years. This upward deviation was affirmed on appeal. (Vivian 2004) ^{[citation needed]}
Courtney's victims filed lawsuits against the drug companies Eli Lilly and Bristol-Myers, alleging that these companies knew or should have known that the pharmacist sold more drugs than he bought. The companies denied liability and did not admit any wrongdoing, but settled 300 lawsuits out of court, paying out some $71 million in compensation. (Cockburn 2005) ^{[citation needed]}
It has been reported that 17 cancer patients died after receiving chemotherapy drugs that were diluted by Courtney. ^{[citation needed]}

I believe the unsigned post above was left by me at an earlier time and so I am signing now.-- — Kbob • Talk • 18:46, 22 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
