Monsanto’s successful streak in Roundup trials ended Friday after a St. Louis jury awarded $1.25 million to the plaintiff.
Jurors discovered that Monsanto didn’t warn in regards to the dangers that Roundup and its energetic ingredient, glyphosate, might trigger non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which plaintiff John Durnell was recognized with at age 67. The jury, nevertheless, rejected claims that Monsanto was negligent in designing a faulty product and declined to award punitive damages.
