A California jury has awarded $332 million to a man who sued chemical giant Monsanto Co. contending that his cancer was related to decades of using its Roundup weedkiller.
His lawsuit contended that his illness was related to Roundup’s active ingredient, glyphosate.
Dennis had treatment and has been in remission for nearly three years but there is no cure, Adam Peavy, one of his attorneys, told KNSD-TV.
“His doctors have told him it’s going to come back and we’re just waiting to see if that happens,” Peavy said.
