Former Marine Charges Camp Lejeune over Benzene H2o Contamination

Former Marine Charges Camp Lejeune over Benzene Drinking Water Contamination



(January 27, 2011) Former Marine Joel Shriberg filed a $16 million federal suit versus Camp Lejeune, claiming that his breast cancer was brought about by benzene contaminated drinking water on the base.

The case was filed Friday in Onslow County with the federal court for the Eastern District of North Carolina. The claim was initially filed with the Department of the Navy last April. However, the case was deemed denied after 6 months without a closing disposition.

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune is a 246-square-mile United States military training facility in North Carolina. While the federal govt owned and controlled the base, it was given an authority to do what ever was essential to provide an uncontaminated h2o supply that was safe for drinking, bathing and other purposes. Shriberg mentioned that water contamination at Camp Lejeune has affected Marines and civilians alike.

Reports said that the base’s h2o contains a lot more than seventy chemicals and toxins like benzene and trichloroethylene, which seeped in to the drinking water systems from cleansing tanks and weapons stores. Shriberg allegedly accused the base for intentionally pouring the toxic chemicals directly into the ground or dumping drums of toxic chemical substances straight into nearby waterways. He claimed that for the duration of a appropriate interval, Camp Lejeune personnel continued to destroy equally military and civilian households with its cancerous effects.

Reports said that Shriberg’s suit seeks more than $200,000 in reimbursement for past health-related expenses, $one million dollars to cover up coming healthcare bills, including $4,748.25 per month to cover hormone treatment for the rest of his life, $five million dollars for past ache and suffering, $six million dollars for up coming discomfort and suffering and $4 million for decreased life expectancy along with costs, expenses and reasonable benzene attorney’s fees.
