Here’s what I call an explosive bombshell regarding the fact that Glyphosate in Roundup actually promotes existing cancers! And when you read my related post about the amount of glyphosate in common food products, all of a sudden Jack Lalanne’s “If man made it, don’t eat it!” sounds like some of the sounded advice ever uttered!
It was demonstrated during the trial that Johnson, after learning about his cancer, contacted Monsanto to ask if Roundup was safe. Despite internal emails showing Monsanto employees, including their chief medical director, were discussing how to handle Johnson, the company refused to contact him back. During the time period Monsanto ignored Johnson, Wisner explains, “It was during this time when he’s continuing to spray it [Roundup] that his cancer goes from something that’s sort of manageable, although it’s a problem…to a death sentence. And the evidence shows that when you apply glyphosate after a cancer has been initiated, it actually promotes it.”
It was arguably the amount and content of documents produced during the discover period of the recent Monsanto trial that swayed the jury to arrive at their “guilty on all counts” verdict. The trial represented the first time this evidence saw the light of day and it proved indefensible for Monsanto’s legal team as The Guardian wrote:
“Monsanto was undone by the words of its own scientists, the damning truth illuminated through the company’s emails, internal strategy reports and other communications.”
Kennedy commented on the gravity and sea change represented by the recent verdict and the groundswell of future legal action lining up by saying:
“Monsanto has been seen, up until this moment…as an untouchable corporation and nobody was able to sue it successfully in a way that really made it think about changing that corporate culture. Thanks to Brent, we now have them on the ropes.”
Monsanto’s next legal Roundup-cancer challenge comes on October 22 in their hometown of St. Louis. In the recent interview, Wisner reasserted his confidence on his legal position for upcoming litigation stating:
“What we have here is about ten percent…there are hundreds of other [discovery] documents way more damning than just these that show just absolute, definitive misconduct by Monsanto.”
