36. Won by a Republican trial lawyer
Seems like an oxymoron to me, but that is what I heard on CNN. The case was tried in Tom DeLay's district and the plaintiff was represented by a Republican trial lawyer. This particular lawyer also has a few hundred other Vioxx clients apparently, and this has Merck very worried.

Another anomaly with this trial that should have Merck scared is that this was a younger jury, not a bunch of retirees who depend upon safe prescription drugs to stay alive.

Very, very bad news for Merck.
