A Racketeer Influenced & Corrupt Organizations (RICO) complaint has been filed in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
Plaintiff: Joe Bellon, individually and as a Representative of a Class of Plaintiffs’
Damages totaling $350,000,000.
The suit charges the defendants with manufacturing and marketing a deadly neurotoxin unfit for human consumption, while they assured the pubic that aspartame, also known as Nutrasweet™ and Equal™, contaminated products are safe and healthful; even for children and pregnant women.
As evidence, an explosive affidavit from a former translator for the G.D.Searle Company, the developer of aspartame, was made public at a national press conference on Thursday, September 16, 2004 at the Sheraton Grand Sacramento Hotel.
For 16 years, the FDA denied approval of aspartame because of compelling evidence of its contributing to brain tumors and other serious ailments.
Donald Rumsfeld, present Secretary of Defense in the Bush administration, left President Ford's administration as Chief of Staff to become the CEO of aspartame producer G.D. Searle Company in 1981 and is mentioned numerously throughout the lawsuit.
Soon after Rumsfeld became the CEO, and the day after President Reagan took office, aspartame was approved by FDA commissioner Arthur Hayes over the objections of the FDA's public board of inquiry.
Hayes had been recently appointed by the Reagan administration, and shortly after aspartame's approval by the FDA, Hayes joined Nutrasweet's™ public relations firm under a ten-year contract at $1,000 a day.
In January 1977, the FDA wrote a 33-page letter to U.S. Justice Department Attorney
Sam Skinner, "We request that your office convene a grand jury investigation into apparent violations of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act."
However, Skinner allowed the statute of limitations to run out, and along with three FDA commissioners and eight other officers quickly took jobs in the aspartame industry.
The Food and Drug Administration listed 92 adverse reactions including seizures, blindness, sexual dysfunction, obesity, testicular & breast cancer, brain tumors, and death along with dozens of other serious diseases arising from the consumption of this neurotoxin after registering
more than 10,000 consumer complaints.
However, in 1996 the FDA stopped taking complaints and now denies existence of the report.
Defendant Moser, past CEO of Nutrasweet™, is cited for misrepresenting facts to public and commercial users with full knowledge of the deceptions.
The toxin is sold to Bayer™, Con Agra Foods™, Dannon™, Smuckers™, Kellogg™, Wrigley™, Pepsico™, Kraft™ Foods (Crystal Light™), Conopco™ (Slim-Fast™), Coca-Cola™, Pfizer™, Wal-mart™ and Wyeth™ (among others) who use it in many of their products including children's vitamins.
A 35-year American Diabetes Association specialist, H.J. Roberts M.D., discovered aspartame can precipitate or aggravate diabetes and its complications as well as simulate the complications especially neuropathy and retinopathy.
His report, intended for the Annual Scientific Meeting of the ADA, was rejected for presentation but was later published in another scientific medical journal.
The 7-count indictment includes charges for violation of the California Consumers Legal Remedies Act, fraud, violations of California Civil Code §1780-1784 with injunctive relief that defendants be restrained from future use and/or sale of aspartame.
