Wedding limousine crash kills 20 in New York
Twenty people were killed on Sunday (Oct 7) after a limousine carrying a wedding party careened out of control in what investigators described as the most deadly transportation accident in the United States for nearly a decade. An SUV-style stretch limousine sped down a hill, crashing into pedestrians outside the Apple Barrel Country Store and Cafe, the Albany Times Union said, citing police. All 18 occupants of the SUV-style stretch limo died along with two pedestrians on Saturday afternoon in upstate New York, police deputy superintendent Christopher Fiore told a news conference. He said the 2001 Ford Excursion had failed to stop at an intersection and continued into a parking lot, ultimately crashing into a parked car.

Photo source: REUTERS/Lucas Jackson/File Photo The ruling was in favor of a man who said his asbestos-related cancer was caused by long-term use of J&J's baby powder. J&J has been battling some 6,000 cases claiming its baby powder and Shower to Shower products cause ovarian cancer. The verdict by a New Jersey jury last week, however, involved a different form of cancer that is clearly linked to asbestos. Plaintiffs lawyers claim that internal J&J documents seen in that trial show that baby powder had been contaminated with asbestos. They now plan to use the documents in upcoming ovarian cancer trials to allege that the asbestos contamination also caused that form of cancer. J&J and Imerys Talc America, a unit of Imerys SA, have vowed to appeal the New Jersey verdict and deny asbestos has ever been present in their products or that their talc can cause any … [Read more...] about J&J baby powder litigation takes new focus with asbestos claims
