You can fool some of the people some of the time. But if you’re poison-peddling Monsanto, it appears you can’t fool thinking humans once they’ve seen and heard the facts.

For the third time in nine months, a jury has concluded that Roundup weedkiller is to blame for causing non-Hodgkin lymphoma, a potentially deadly form of cancer.

The victims this time? A husband and wife who believed Monsanto’s claims that Roundup was safe.

The outcome of this third trial? Monsanto’s parent company, Bayer, was ordered to pay the plaintiffs $2 billion ($1 billion each) in punitive and compensatory damages, and another $55 million in past and future medical bills.

U.S. Right to Know’s Carey Gillam walks you through this trial and what’s next in her latest article. (OCA is a major funder of U.S. Right to Know).
