ACREAGE,FL--Attorney Rebecca Larson who worked at the side of legendary lawyer Bob Montgomery wants answers in the Acreage.
For the first time, a top lawyer has joined the quest to determine whether there is indeed an industrial culprit in what many believe is an extraordinary number of tumors and cancers in the community of about 50,000.
Larson is pulling no punches.
"I have a concern that Pratt Whitney may be involved in this...There is a long history of Pratt Whitney spilling, dumping toxins that contain carcinogens...I have no proof at this juncture but I have concern in that regard.
It's truely horrifying for the residents in the Acreage. Even if you or your family have not been imminently affected just the fear has to be incredible.
Newschannel Five has documented 32 brain tumors that have hit residents in the last eight years. Many of the victims are children.
That explains Larson's involvement. "The most important reason why I'm doing this is because children are involved."
"My prospective client has been diagnosed with a brain tumor, but her prime concern is that she has a daughter who has severe headaches and dizziness. She made the child baby bottles with water out in the Acreage. She wants her child checked.
