The plaintiff in next week's trial is 37-year-old Sue Kamuda, who used to live near the Sterigenics plant.
She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007 and went through surgery and several rounds of chemo to treat the disease. Kamuda says her family has no history of breast cancer. In 2021, Kamuda's son was disanosed with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. His case will go to trial at a later date. "The volume of individual cases filed shows the devastating impact Sterigenics had on the Willowbrook community. But this is not about a large number of lawsuits, this is about individual people – like Sue – who have suffered unimaginable physical, emotional and financial hardships," said lead Plaintiff’s attorney Patrick A. Salvi II. "We look forward to trying this case and seeking justice.

Used Land Rover Defender 110 SVX SPECTRE for sale1 of only 7 Land Rover Defender ‘SVX Concept’ models or that are now better known as ‘Spectre Defenders’, built specifically for the 24th James Bond blockbuster movie, Spectre. With huge 37' diameter Maxxis Trepador tyres bolted directly onto 16' Beadlock alloy wheels and a full body lift you might think that these were the easiest upgrades to spot of the Defenders transformation, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. To support such a special build Bowler upgraded the suspension to include rose joints and Bilstein rally dampers built to race specification, integrated a full roll cage that runs both externally and internally. Then hidden away under the bonnet you will find a number of key engine upgrades with increased power from the standard 120bhp now up to 185bhp and 368lb/ft of torque all from a Bowler Upgraded Turbo, Bowler PWR Intercooler, Bowler Exhaust Centre Section and a replacement ECU. They were also fitted with Bowler extended wheel arches, light force spot lamps to the roof, A Bar, bonnet ropes, Warn Zeon 10S winch, steering guard, a snorkel, roof racks, underbody protection plates, clear lens packs to the lights and a hydraulic handbrake to name but a few of the long list of upgrades. The interior is very much what you would expect from a traditional Defender but with the addition of Recaro Sports Seats and FIA specification 4-point harnesses to give it that special and robust feel. It also has a plumbed in FIA Fire Extinguisher (disengaged) and have since fitted correct inertia seatbelts to the car front and back to allow for UK road registration. Our Spectre Defender comes complete with a recent service at Land Rover, its original owners books, current MOT certificate, UK V5 Logbook, 2 sets of keys, a very appropriate registration number of 'XO07 SVO' and a range of papers documenting filming schedules and vehicle build specifications from Jaguar Land Rover to Bowler.
