ZOLOFT: Wrongful Death Suit Filed in Behalf of the Andrea Roberts’ Family
SHERMAN — In a suit recently transferred to the East
Texas federal court, the maker of a popular anti-depressant drug is being blamed
for a murder-suicide committed by a woman who had taken the drug.
Court
papers say that after taking Pfizer’s drug Zoloft, 41-year-old Andrea Roberts
shot and killed her two children and husband before turning the gun on
herself.
Her parents, Glenda and John Robert McCoy, and brother, John
Andrew McCoy, acting pro se, first filed a suit in Denton County on July 31 on
behalf of decedents Jon Andrea Roberts, Michael Roberts, Micayla Roberts and
Dylan Roberts.
