Jury Awards Couple $2 Billion In Damages In Third Verdict Linking Roundup Weed Killer To Plaintiffs’ Cancer

The couple, Alva and Alberta Pilliod, used Roundup on their Northern California property for decades. They both have been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The trial unfolded much like the earlier two, with sparring over scientific studies, the credibility of expert witnesses and the relative importance of a WHO decision that glyphosate, the primary ingredient in Roundup, is likely carcinogenic to humans. The EPA's officials stance on the product is that it's safe.
