ALL

"Labor On  The Job" focuses on the case of Agraquest biotech worker David Bell. Bell who worked at the Davis, CA biotech laboratory owned by former Monsanto scientist Pam Marrone was infected with fungus and bacteria while working. He and his family have faced a terrifying battle for healthcare and justice from injuries on the job. Despite the fact that his mother found material in his body that was patented by scientists at the laboratory he has been prevented from getting full healthcare to save his life. The corruption and breakdown of the workers compensation system is connected to the deregulation of workers compensation and the elimination of all medical doctors at Ca-OSHA. Joining the show is his mother Sandi Trend, the last Ca-OSHA doctor Larry Rose and author of "Death On The Job" Daniel Berman. "Labor On The Job" is programmed the 2nd and 4th Friday of the month on San Francisco Cable Channel 29 from 9:00 PM to 10:00 PM.

STORY
".   [INCLUDES SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION; VALIDATING DAVID BELL'S CLAIMS]

The biotech industry employs hundreds of thousands of workers in the United States yet the health and safety of workers and communities could be in jeopardy. Injured Agraquest biotech worker David Bell talks about his experience at the Davis based company which was owned by Pam Marrone. He recounts the lack of health and safety production in the genetic engineering laboratory. Bell reports that fungus and bacteria was brought into the country and although he reported it there was not action by government agencies that do oversight in importation of such substances.

Labor On The Job on 12/12/2008 interviews Agraquest biotech workers David Bell. Bell talks about his work at the Davis California based company owned by Pam Marrone and how the lack of proper health and safety protection led to his contamination and sickness. He also discusses how the company sought to cover-up their responsibility for his illness and the corruption and breakdown of the workers compensation system along with the failure of health and safety regulatory agencies such as OSHA.

**Found 3 years AFTER the California Workers' Compensation case of DAVID BELL vs. AGRAQUEST, INC. The Presiding Judge over the David Bell's 'trial'; Suzanne F. Dugan's husband's employer at the time; PBS&J  had direct ties to Agraquest and one of it's law firms, Morrison & Foerster as well as Agraquest's founder, Pamela Gail Marrone.

Suzanne Dugans husband, Michael T Dugan worked for PBS&J Corporation in the capacity of attorney and consultant. In between Judge Suzanne Dugan' presiding over DAVID BELL vs. AGRAQUEST, INC. trial,  and finding against David Bell in favor of Agraquest; Suzanne Dugan's husband; Michael T. Dugan's employer, PBS&J was a co-sponsor [and provided "teams"] during the University of California - Davis.. 16th Annual Science Center with Agraquest, the law firm of Agraquest; Morrison & Foerster and Agraquest's founder and CEO; Pamela Gail Marrone's third start-up company in Davis, California, Marrone Organic Innovations (later renamed Marrone Bio Innovations).

Michael T. Dugan was a "DETHRONED" Marion County Indiana Superiour Court Judge.  A federal jury found him guilty in May 1989 of extorting more thatn $230,000 in cash bribes and gifts through his authority as a judge in Indianapolis. [PLEASE READ→ "Michael T. Dugan, Ii, Petitioner-Appellant, v. United States of America, Respondent-Appellee - 18 F.3d 460"] MOST OF THE MONEY came from Dugan's CONTROL THROUGH COURT - SUPERVISED REHABILITATION OF AN INSURANCE COMPANY.

*IS THE WORLD BEING  LED TO BELIEVE THAT ONLY "NATURAL" (naturally found in the environment)  BACTERIA AND/OR FUNGUS IS ONLY BEING USED IN MICROBIAL PRODUCTS; BIOPESTICIDES, BIOINSECTICIDES, BIOFUNGICIDES ETC. WHICH ARE BEING USED ON OUR FOOD CROPS, ORNAMENTALS AND/OR USED FOR INSECT CONTROL?   THIS IS NOT ALWAYS THE CASE... "MUTANTS" ARE BEING USED THAT THE PUBLIC IS NOT AWARE OF
Are we being led to believe these microbial products are safe??
*It seems that using "mutants" and mutants created using recombinant techniques. (last 2 patents below) doesn’t qualify the claim of "naturally found" bacteria and fungus which are claimed as being the “active ingredient” in microbial biocontrol products.
*When searching the United States Patent Office for the search terms of “Agraquest” and “mutants” the results were twenty (20) United States patents; that were assigned to Agraquest alone and furthermore does not take into account International patents. These patents uses the wording; mutants, mutants thereof and/or recombinant techniques.  There are many MANY more patents that don't list Agraquest as the holder of the patent; but Agraquest's scientists were listed as "inventors" on other company patents. (these are not listed below)
*The reader is invited; NO... encouraged to view the following twenty (20) Agraquest United States patents and decide for themselves whether we can be 100% certain that only “naturally found in the environment” bacteria and/or fungus is being used on our food crops, ornamentals and/or used for insect control.... OR are mutants being used?

Newsflash

NOT all forms of Histoplasmosis are curable as can be found within the CDC, NIOSH just to name a few.  It has been well documented in numerous scientific publications that the disease Histoplasmosis (caused by Histoplasma Capsulateum) can indeed be and has been fatal to humans.

Histoplasma is NOT only (found) caused by bat guano or bird droppings.  It is well known this fungi is found in soil as well
