Why would you ever think so? Inventory stuffing, Plavix backroom dealing, off-label promotion of Abilify, corrupt sales and marketing practices, not giving US Govt best price, paying to keep generics off the market. Deferred Prosecution Agreement, Corporate Integrity Agreement and $515 million settlement with US Govt for "no criminal acvtivity admitted". Surely Mr. Ichan jests. Mr. Cornelius is only following in the grand tradition of prior BMY execs - get all you can for #1 while you can, its the American way. BMY Execs doing something perhaps unethical?

Absolutely! This type of behavior has been characteristic of BMS for the past 15 years - ever since the Bristol-Myers beancounters and the cronies took control and initiated the precipitous decline of the merged company.
