Utah Meth Cops Project
22:12
[i][b][u]Utah Meth Cops Project[/u][/b][/i] In the last decade cops have busted over 1,000 methamphetamine labs in the state of Utah. But in putting themselves in harm’s way to serve and protect the public, they have also been exposing themselves to a hidden killer: the meth lab itself. 81 police officers in Utah have either died, have terminal illness or are extremely sick – and the one common denominator in every one of these health situations is the officer spent large amount of time in a drug lab. Utah officers were among the first to be exposed to chemical exposure in meth labs in the early and mid 1980’s. At the time, the long-term side effects of such exposure were not known and officers were not required to wear protective gear. The extent of the serious effects of such exposure to health is currently well documented – people who come in contact with the highly toxic chemicals used to make the drug can become sick and prolonged exposure can lead to cancer. The use of protective gear is now fully implemented. Unfortunately, this necessary precaution has come too late for dozens of law enforcement personnel already suffering from various serious ailments. Tragically, several officers in Utah who worked in the methamphetamine strike forces have died of cancer in the last few years. The establishment of the Utah Meth Cops Project gives hope for the first time to these unsung heroes exposed to toxic chemicals in the line of duty. The project was started with the purpose of raising funds to train a local team to deliver the program in Utah to those law enforcement personnel who had been poisoned by contact with toxins from meth labs encountered in the line of duty, on a humanitarian basis, at no cost to them. With a grant from the Commission on Crime and Juvenile Justice, the Utah Meth Cops Project opened its door on September 26, 2007, with seven officers starting the program. Those officers noticed immediate changes in their conditions. The results experienced by the participants were definite and without exception all reported improvements in their health, some very dramatic. By early 2010, 68 officers had completed the program with great success. Today, the Insider Exclusive shows how Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff; Sandra Lucas, Director of the Utah Meth Cops Project; Stuart Smith, Retired Chief of Investigation for the Salt Lake County District Attorney’s Office; and Mitch Jensen of the law firm of Siegfried Jensen came together to support this noble project for Utah’s finest. Mark Shurtleff was elected to his first term as Utahs Attorney General in 2000. A seasoned prosecutor, public servant and family man, Attorney General Shurtleff is now in his tenth year as Attorney General. Since stepping into the Attorney Generals office Attorney General Shurtleff has shown his dedication to Utahs families through his strong vision and effective leadership. Prior to 2000, Utah was notorious for nearly leading the country in methamphetamine labs per capita. Attorney General Shurtleff took the meth problem to the legislature, fought for better laws, focused on tough enforcement and today, Utah is among the lowest states in the country for meth production. Attorney General Shurtleff received a bachelor’s degree from Brigham Young University and his law degree from the University of Utah College of Law Mitch Jensen graduated from Brigham Young University with a bachelor’s degree in business in 1978. After completing law school at Pepperdine University in 1981, he became a member of the State Bars of California and Utah. Along with Ned Siegfried, Mitch co-founded what is now one of the top personal injury law firms in the Salt Lake City, Utah area, where he specializes in personal injury auto litigation, product liability, and pharmaceutical injuries. Associating with clients is the most rewarding aspect of Mitch’s work, as he is inspired by people who overcome significant trials and challenges. He considers the greatest people he knows to be his clients and the attorneys and staff who help them fight to restore their lives and families. In his spare time, Mitch enjoys sports, outdoor activities, spending time with his family, and traveling.

Popcorn Lung Disease – The Eric Peoples’s Story
43:40
[b][i]Popcorn Lung Disease – The Eric Peoples’s Story [/i][/b] Popcorn Lung Disease, or Popcorn Workers Lung, appears mostly among factory workers in microwave popcorn plants. The illness is thought to be caused by the inhaled vapors of the butter flavoring (Diacetyl) used in microwave popcorn. The most likely victims of this illness are workers who mix the paste or powder forms of Diacetyl with oil to prepare it for use in the popcorn packets. Popcorn Lung Disease occurs most frequently in regions where the manufacture of microwave popcorn is a big industry. There are many such hotspots throughout the United States. Because the law firm of Humphries, Farrington, McClain, P.C. represents people from every state, including Eric Peoples, they have probably represented someone from your city or county already. They are familiar with the principal manufacturers of microwave popcorn. They know about plants, the owners and managers, and the litigation history of each hotspot. And that’s why they have successfully tried the only jury trials in the country, with over $53 million dollars in jury verdicts and hundreds of settlements against the manufacturers, who protest that it was the employers responsibility to follow safety instructions. Today The Insider Exclusive presents “Popcorn Lung Disease – The Eric Peoples’s Story” – and shows how the flavoring Industry used workers like Eric Peoples as “Blue Collar Guinea Pigs” for years. Eric played by the rules; he worked to support his family. And the unregulated microwave popcorn industry virtually destroyed his life. Kenneth B. McClain began his firm’s asbestos practice in 1984, when he represented the Independence, Missouri school district. It was the first case in the country to return a verdict for a school district to recover the cost of removing asbestos from a building. Since then, Ken has represented asbestos personal injury victims and owners of buildings contaminated by asbestos across the United States. On October 6, 1997, he settled the first individual tobacco tort action in New York for Janet Sackman, the Lucky Strike poster model. A 1982 graduate of the University of Michigan Law School, Ken is a nationally recognized trial lawyer specializing in toxic tort cases throughout the country. Humphrey, Farrington McClain, P.C. is a 16-attorney firm located in Independence, Missouri. Our dedicated attorneys, paralegals and numerous support staff are experienced in handling asbestos bodily injury claims and building-contamination claim, as well as other tort and complex litigation matters involving toxic substances.

The Ashley Kubicz Story
28:20
[b][i]Auto Injury – The Ashley Kubicz Story[/i][/b] It all began one dark and rainy night on November 15, 2005, on Highway P in the little town of Richmond, Wisconsin, when Michael Turner, a 50-year-old, very drunk driver with a blood alcohol content of double the legal limit, swerved across the clearly marked double yellow centerline on Highway P, in his big Ford pickup truck, and slammed directly head-on into 17-year-old Ashley Kubicz’s little car . . . with catastrophic results! Trapping her legs in excruciating pain in the car, severing the artery in her left leg (which deprived it of the life-sustaining blood she desperately needed), Ashley clung on courageously while the medics rushed her to hospital. Her injuries were so severe that the doctors had to amputate her leg halfway from her hip to her knee, which effectively ended her dreams of being a softball star. Turner was hauled off to jail, and one more tragic “alcohol-related” drunk driver accident was added to the approximately 630,000 people injured in alcohol-related crashes every year. That’s an average of one person injured approximately every minute of every day of every year. About 30,000 people a year will suffer permanent work-related disabilities, just like Ashley. Every weekday night from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m., one in 13 drivers is drunk with a blood alcohol content of .08 or higher; and between 1 a.m. and 6 a.m. on weekend mornings, one in seven drivers is drunk. More Americans have died in alcohol-related traffic crashes than in all the wars the United States has been involved in since our country was founded. Today, The Insider Exclusive presents “The True Story and The Miraculous Courage of Ashley Kubicz”. Joining Ashley is her mother Karen, along with Jason Abraham of the law firm of Hupy Abraham, S.C. Jason got justice for Ashley, and has earned the highest respect from citizens and lawyers alike as one of the best plaintiffs’ trial lawyers in Wisconsin and in the nation./nJason Abraham began his career with Hupy and Abraham, S.C., in 1993 and progressed to the position of shareholder at the firm in 1999. He received his undergraduate degree in psychology in 1989 from the University of Wisconsin, followed by his juris doctor from Marquette University Law School in 1992. He is admitted to practice in the State of Wisconsin, along with the United States District Courts for the Eastern and Western Districts of Wisconsin. He is also licensed to practice in Missouri. He is a Certified Civil Trial Specialists by the National Board of Trial Advocacy, member of the State Bar of Wisconsin, American Bar Association, Association of Trial Lawyers of America, and Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum. As a result of his expertise regarding personal injury matters, along with a significant record of achievement in that venue, Jason has lectured in numerous states regarding personal injury issues. His proficiency in that area has created a clientele consisting of individuals from across the nation. Jason has settled or tried over 110 million dollars in personal injury cases and has had multiple cases resolved for over a million dollars. Huppy Abraham, S.C. seeks to give their clients the best possible representation from the beginning of their case to its conclusion. The firm goes above and beyond the call of duty, pledging to keep clients informed and to give each client personal attention.

Murdered by Mumia
09:47
Murdered by Mumia: A Life Sentence of Loss, Pain, and Injustice. Maureen Faulkner, the widow of slain Philadelphia police officer Danny Faulkner, is featured in an exciting, exclusive, in-depth and inside interview, discussing her new book/nMurdered by Mumia: A Life Sentence of Loss, Pain, and Injustice. Maureen's husband was shot between the eyes on a cold December night in 1981. Mumia Abu-Jamal was unanimously convicted of the crime by a racially mixed jury based on: the testimony of several eyewitnesses, his ownership of the murder weapon, matching ballistics, and Abu-Jamal's own confession. After his conviction, however, a national anti-death penalty movement was started to "Free Mumia;" Mike Farrell, Ed Asner, Whoopi Goldberg, and Jesse Jackson rallied on his behalf, and led the charge. For his part, while on death row, Abu-Jamal published several books, delivered radio commentaries, was a college commencement speaker, found himself named an Honorary Citizen of France, and had his defense coffers enhanced by ticket sales from a sold out (16,000-person) concert featuring Rage Against the Machine. Now, with this interview Maureen carefully and definitively lays out the case against Abu-Jamal, and those who've elevated him to the status of political prisoner. As Abu-Jamal's lawyers contemplate their final appeal, Faulkner weaves a compelling, never-before-told account of one fateful night and the 25-year-long rewriting of history. She offers a vivid story that demands our attention and the pursuit of justice for her late husband./nYou can learn more about Maureen Faulkner at http://www.murderedbymumia.com

Injustice In Search of Exoneration
28:21
The Douglas Espino Story – Injustice in Search of Exoneration. Los Angeles is known as the “Gang Capital of America”. Over 39,000 gang members commit an estimated 7,000 violent crimes annually. Once, gang members used chains and knives to commit crimes. Now they use shotguns, automatic rifles, handguns and explosives. Once, victims of gang violence were rival gang members. Now the victims are often innocent bystanders and residents killed or injured by stray bullets . . . or people charged with crimes they did not commit. Certain gang-infested neighborhoods are also frighteningly similar to war zones. And in one of those LA neighborhoods, near Pico & Union Streets, on a typical Saturday night on June 7, 2008, a “non-gang member” named Douglas Espino became a “victim” of gangland violence and terror that threatens to change his life forever. Douglas was convicted on March 13, 2009 on 7 counts of attempted murder. He faces a life sentence in prison – for crimes he did not commit! He is innocent . . . and he’s a victim of LA’s gangs and the criminal justice system. This Insider Exclusive Special raises questions and issues about the breakdown in the criminal justice system for Douglas Espino, including:/n1. How eyewitnesses live in fear for the lives, but now come forward to try and exonerate Douglas. 2. How an overzealous prosecutor appears willing to win a conviction at any cost. 3. Why the LAPD has failed to look for the real shooter. 4. And how the Espino family claims that Douglas’ defense attorney failed to provide an adequate defense. This is Douglas Espino’s true story, as told through the eyes and words of his family, his friends and key eyewitnesses whose lives are “threatened” by LA’s most notorious gangs, but despite these real dangers, want to see justice done. Douglas can’t be with us today. He’s currently incarcerated in the LA County Jail, awaiting sentencing on June 25, 2009. Joining us to discuss his wrongful conviction are Charlene Rosen-Espino, Douglas’ sister-in-law and most active, outspoken champion, and Charlene’s father, Bob Rosen, a well respect securities attorney with the law firm of Rosen & Associates (www.rosen-law.com). Also joining us are Douglas’ mother, Maria Escalante; Douglas’ sister, Amanda Escalante, and some eyewitnesses who wish to remain anonymous for fear of gang retaliation.
