San Francisco jurors just ruled that that Roundup, the most popular weedkiller in the world, gave a former school groundskeeper terminal cancer.

So they awarded him $289 million in damages — mostly to punish the agricultural company Monsanto.

Dewayne Johnson’s victory Friday could set a massive precedent for thousands of other cases claiming Monsato’s famous herbicide causes non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.

  • Unfortunate for Mr Johnson that his NHL was so aggressive. Many are successfully treated with conventional therapy or stemcell or bone marrow transplant. Monsanto monsters will however, contest this and in all probability, this will drag on in the courts for some time.
