Marler Blog - Nebraska Beef, Why Did You Not Disclose E. coli Tests? Are Criminal Sanctions Warranted? - Comments http://www.marlerblog.com/ Food Poisoning Lawyer & Attorney : Bill Marler : Marler Clark en Copyright 2012 Wed, 16 May 2012 05:10:14 -0800 Wed, 16 May 2012 05:10:14 -0800 http://www.sixapart.com/movabletype/?v=4.32-en http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss Matt I don't have an expert grasp of law (that's why I read this blog!) but can you please tell me how this WOULDN'T be about as clear of an example of depraved indifference as there could be?

Criminal sanctions? I don't see how it could even be a question. And if there's a single death that can be associated with this outbreak, I'd like to hear words like "involuntary manslaughter".

I've read that 40% of feedlot cows carry E. coli 0157:H57. True?

Remember, of course, we're talking about a company that sued a church after a church dinner prepared with Nebraska Beef sickened and killed parishioners. These guys are not known for their heart. Or class.

Alfred Santillo My memory is a sad data storage system, but I have a dim recall of a group of children either becoming severely ill, or dying from some sort of meat-borne bacteria in a fast-food place. I think it was in 1993-94-95. Dr. Robin Cook wrote a chilling novel about slaughterhouse and meat packing procedures and their apparently cavalier testing and disinfecting protocols during the killing and handling of cattle. Is the E.coli strain in both the fast-food case and the novel the same strain you are referring to?
