Giuliani Partners

$3.1 billion of OxyContin in 2010. Predictably, Purdue Pharma received such a mild penalty seemingly due to political connections. As a private defense attorney, they hired Mary Jo White who developed a notable hard-nosed reputation for prosecuting drug crimes as the former U.S. Attorney in Manhattan.

For that reason, the purpose for the assignment was to incorporate a how to basic dance step routine that could roughly define Salsa dancing.
