Environmental Health and Safety Advocates Hope W.R. Grace Indictment Sets a Precedent Occupational Hazards
While environmental health and safety advocates are applauding the federal government's recent indictment of W.R. Grace, they're also hopeful it will embolden the government to bring other asbestos scofflaws to justice.
'It's a great first step, but our position is every one of the executives at every one of these asbestos manufacturers should all be indicted on criminal charges,' said Richard Wiles, senior vice president of Environmental Working Group, a Washington, D.C.-based environmental advocacy organization. 'There's no difference between what they did and what W.R. Grace officials did.'------------------------------------------- posted 12:26 PM :: reference link ::
