All this because some sleazy lawyer convinced a gullible jury that a guy that probably ignored all the safety warnings and happened to get cancer deserved a multi-million dollar payout. Roundup has been around probably 50 years and no probable cause of cancer if used right.

totally ... Bayer should have fought these lawsuits until doomsday ...

Right. I read some of the lawsuit some time ago. It stated two brand names of herbicide, one being Roundup and another brand I was not familiar with, but digging on my part found both items contained glyphosate. I don’t remember if the other herbicide (not Roundup) was made by Monsanto.
The dude that won this case was a groundskeeper/lawn maintenance guy. Now... it’s been my experience if you are doing a full-bore job of turf care, you are exposed to FAR more broadleaf herbicide like 2,4-D than you are non-selective herbicides containing glyphosate.
Wonder if this was brought up in litigation?
