The Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation. More than 1,550 products have been recalled. A Georgia peanut plant knowingly shipped salmonella-laced products as far back as 2007, at times sending out tainted products after tests confirmed contamination, according to inspection records released Friday. =========== Whats your take? Death? Long sentence? Club Fed? Or a fine and a slap on the wrist? . cfoster) you are right, it is not for us to decide. It is about your opinion. That is why you are here, remember? If China does it, do we? . Orchid Lets just say an exec ordered the products shipped knowing it could cause death --- is a fine, a simple jail sentence enough? Or manslaughter in the first degree?
