Latest Lawsuit News & Legal Information

Whistleblower Outed Abbott Labs Two Years Before FDA Closed Sturgis Plant
Sturgis, MI Evidence of contaminated baby formula sounds like it should have been an “all-hands-on-deck” emergency for Abbott Laboratories and the Food and Drug Administration. Instead, it took the FDA nearly two years to send inspectors to the Sturgis, Michigan plant, where they found “shocking” conditions. By then two babies had died and several more had become ill. Had it not been for the dogged persistence of a whistleblower who filed federal and state OSHA complaints as well as an FDA complaint, the tainted formula could have hurt many more.

The details, however, suggest a careful plan carefully executed in several steps over almost a year.
