Second Boy Scout Files Suit Against California Meat Processor in Rockbridge County

Last week, another Boy Scout filed suit in Rockbridge County Circuit Court against S&S Foods after he contracted E. coli, allegedly from eating frozen hamburger patties supplied by S&S while at camp at the Goshen Scout Reservation. S&S Foods later recalled over 150,000 pounds of beef when it tested positive for E. coli.

In all, eighty-four people became sick while at the camp in July. This represents the second suit filed against S&S on behalf of an affected Boy Scout. (See here for a description of the first suit, including a copy of the complaint, and here for a posting by one of the attorneys for the plaintiff in both cases.)
