Seven congresspeople sent a letter to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. demanding action from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on preterm infant formula. Their demand comes in the wake of over 1,000 lawsuits against preterm infant formula manufacturers in the United States, stemming from failures to warn parents of the increased risk of a serious gastrointestinal illness, necrotizing enterocolitis, associated with the use of non-human milk-derived fortifiers.

FROM THE WINY RADIO NEWSROOM: PUTNAM: BREAKING: 308 PAGE LAWSUIT/COMPLAINT BEING FILED REGARDING LOFTS AT CARGILL FALLS MILL: DEFENDANTS INCLUDE TOWN OF PUTNAM: Personal injury lawyer Scott Camassar– who has been representing dozens of clients in relation to complaints about lead, leaks, mold and pests at The Lofts At Cargill Falls Mill apartment complex in downtown Putnam– updated WINY today that a complaint has been served on all defendants and is being filed in court early this week.

Attorney Camassar stated there are 17 plaintiffs and 10 defendants, and he expects this to be a long process as there are insurance coverage issues and he’s anticipating that some defendants will make cross claims against each other. That being said, Camassar stressed that he really wants to “get to the bottom of how this complex opened with widespread toxic lead throughout the property, among other problems.”

The complaint, which is being filed in Putnam Superior Court, names Historic Cargill Falls Mill, LLC; Historic Cargill Falls Mill Manager, LLC; Konover Residential Corporation; Haynes Construction Company; Maher Industries, LLC; Talevi Enterprises, LLC; Big East Environmental, LLC; JHS Restoration, Inc.; Ganek Architects, Inc.; and the Town of Putnam as defendants.

The lengthy complaint totals 308 pages and contains 338 counts within.

Specifically in regard to the Town of Putnam, the argument is made in the complaint that “the Town of Putnam, by and through its building officials, knew or should have known based on its inspections that lead paint was not properly removed or encapsulated.”

The complaint also notably contains details on the situation of a minor plaintiff who suffered lead poisoning which years later is still causing physical and mental pain, sleep disturbance, loss of appetite, speech and communication delays, low muscle tone, impaired and delayed motor skills, cognitive impairment, and physical sickness. “Some or all of these injuries and damages are or may be permanent,” the complaint states.

The amount of relief being sought is not specified within the Statement of Amount of Demand at the end of the complaint, other than that the amount in demand is “greater than $15,000.”
