Asbestos Indictments
Asbestos exposure can take as long as 30 years to cause cancer. It is important to find out what companies knew about asbestos and when.
From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch: "Asbestos Indictments Are Called a First Step," by Andrew Schneider--
The federal indictment announced Monday against W.R. Grace & Co. should be used as a blueprint for criminal investigations in at least 40 other states - including Missouri - where Grace operated, public health and worker safety leaders said.
Grace and seven of its current and former officials were accused of knowing that the asbestos-contaminated vermiculite being mined in Libby, Mont., was endangering workers and residents.

The organs in our body are made up of cells. Cells split and multiply as the body requirements. When these cells continue multiplying when the body doesn’t need them, the result is a mass or growth, also called a tumor.
