- A U.S. jury on Tuesday found Bayer AG’s glyphosate-based Roundup weed killer caused cancer, a blow to the company eight months after another jury issued a $289 million verdict over similar claims in a different case.

“We are confident the evidence in phase two will show that Monsanto’s conduct has been appropriate and the company should not be liable for Mr. Hardeman’s cancer,” the company said. U.S. District Judge Vince Chhabria called such evidence “a distraction” from the scientific question of whether glyphosate causes cancer. He split the Hardeman case into two phases: one to decide causation, the other to determine Bayer’s potential liability and damages.

Chhabria has scheduled another bellwether trial for May and a third trial is likely to take place this year. All three bellwether cases will be split into causation and liability phases.

U.S. jury finds Bayer's Roundup caused man's cancerA U.S. jury on Tuesday found Bayer AG's glyphosate-based weed killer caused... Good. As a former employee, good. it’s not just from spraying weeds in your sidewalk. politicians gave the green lights to spray it on crops (cereal, oats everything). It is an endocrine disrupter that messes up a lot of stuff. I wonder how the jury came to the conclusion that glyphosate causes cancer when literally all regulatory agencies in the world (including the US) say it does not.
