Biz: GlaxoSmithKline makes a whistleblower incredibly rich

  • $750 million GlaxoSmithKline will no longer have after this
  • $150M the amount in fines and forfeiture the company will have to pay to the U.S. government
  • $600M the amount of the settlement that GlaxoSmithKline will have to pay out
  • $94M the amount of the settlement the whistleblower, Cheryl D. Eckard, gets source
  • » The lesson of the day, guys? It pays to be a lawyer. Or a whistleblower. One thing that doesn’t pay is selling products on the market that don’t do what they purport to do, or are tainted during the manufacturing process.
