California judge tosses $417 million Baby Powder cancer-causing verdict against Johnson & Johnson
REMEMBER: Johnson & Johnson knowingly & willingly suppressed and destroyed information that proved they knew talc was linked to cancer. THEN the company doubled down, targeting the product specifically to minority women in underprivileged markets knowing that this subset is less likely to see a doctor when they experience problems due to cost and lack of insurance.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Maren Nelson, tossed a jury’s decision in August to hit Johnson & Johnson with the largest verdict to date in the litigation, awarding California resident Eva Echeverria $70 million in compensatory damages and $347 million in punitive damages.
Nelson on Friday reversed the jury verdict and granted J&J’s request for a new trial. Nelson said the August trial was underpinned by errors and insufficient evidence on both sides, culminating in excessive damages.
Weird, insufficient evidence on *both* sides get Johnson & Johnson a new trial while continuing to insult and demean the now deceased victim's family.
BOYCOTT Johnson & Johnson's Baby Powder A federal jury found talcum contained in Johnson & Johnson powder products contributed to ovarian cancer. Jury found that Johnson & Johnson failed to warn consumers of link between ovarian cancer & talc-based body powder for feminine hygiene products.* BOYCOTT all Johnson & Johnson products until CEO Alex Gorsky is removed and the Company puts consumer health above profits. #JNJCEOAlexGorskyBannedForLife
