Right.

So a few months later, Grace asked Von Sashaki that very question.

But aside from ashamedly muttering something about how he'd warned other members of the Corporation of the Risk, he offered no explanation.

So she literally was like, why did you let everybody do that if you've known that?

And he was like...

I tried to tell them money, I think, but yeah.

According to Kate Moore, Von Shishaki would later claim that he raised his concerns to the board of directors and management, but quote, was opposed by members of the corporation who had charge of the personnel.

So no matter what way you shake it out, assholes.

Either way, you work at a shitty company.

For years, Grace Fryer had been suffering from mysterious illnesses with no cure and would certainly, honestly, most certainly die at a very young age because of them.

Absolutely.

And now after receiving confirmation that the illness was definitely a direct result, not just of negligence, but of outright deceit and abuse on the part of her employer, she was fucking pissed.

So over the course of the following year, she started talking with her friends and former coworkers and was like, let's file a fucking lawsuit against this motherfucking company.

Because again, it's not just negligence.

It's deceit and abuse.

Like they did this intentionally.

The problem was, though, that it was unclear whether New Jersey labor laws would cover their damage claims since they had begun so many years earlier.

Yeah.

Also, while there was some evidence to suggest the company knew about the risks, they would have to prove that in court, which wasn't going to be super easy.

Yeah, that's tough.
