OKLAHOMA CITY – Just days after Red Dirt Report featured a story
out of St. Louis, Mo. addressing the shocking revelation that the U.S.
Army was conducting secret experiments on citizens of that city without
their knowledge in the 1950’s -by spraying toxic substances on them – we
learn that potentially deadly human experimentation is taking place
this very day – and sanctioned by the U.S. government, no less!

While those Cold War-era tests – some believed to include
radiological substances, primarily on lower-income, inner-city folks –
took place more than 50 years ago in St. Louis, Corpus Christi, Texas
and elsewhere, we learn that the Environmental Protection Agency is
currently being sued in federal court for “conducting illegal
life-and-health-threatening scientific experiments on human subjects,”
according to a JunkScience.com report from September 24^th.

And Oklahoma’s senior senator, Tulsa’s Jim Inhofe, is demanding further answers from the EPA, in the meantime. Hearings are likely in coming weeks.

Suing the EPA and EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson is The American Tradition Institute Environmental Law Center.

This is in response to illegal human experiments involving the 2009
KINGCON study and the 2010 OMEGACON study and exposure to lethal levels
of particulate matter.

The court document and lawsuit, The American Tradition Institute
Environmental Law Center v. United States Environmental Protection
Agency and Lisa P. Jackson, Administrator can be read here.

In the court documents, it notes, for instance, that one plaintiff,
asthma-sufferer Landon Huffman, participated in human experiments
several years ago that he was led to believe would “help people with
asthma.”

Huffman, the documents note, “was not informed that the pollution EPA
was forcing into his lungs could actually cause him to have an asthma
attack. Nor was he ever given anything from EPA that would possibly
relieve his asthma.”

One “obese woman with hypertension and pre-experiment evidence of
cardiac irritability” was placed in a gas chamber and exposed to small
particles “at levels far above what the EPA had published as safe.” She
was later hospitalized.

Clearly these poor people were seen as expendable by this out-of-control government agency.

A medical ethicist named Dr. John Dale Dunn looked at the post-experiment results and was stunned by what he learned.

Said Dunn: “I am outraged and saddened to know that highly trained
and expert physicians would be involved in scandalously unethical and
immoral professional research, subjecting humans to toxic or lethal
levels of small particles.”


Two other plaintiffs, Steven J. Milloy and Dr. David Schnare, had
relatives in Nazi concentration camps. Milloy’s uncle, Zoran Galkanovic,
who was incarcerated at the Mauthausen concentration camp, “was forced
to … identify those individuals at the concentration camp too ill to
work, knowing they would subsequently be executed.”

Located in Austria, the Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp was known for unspeakable horrors that included all sorts of gruesome and deadly medical experiments.

Camp physician Hermann Richter “surgically removed significant organs
– e.g., stomach, liver, or kidneys – from living prisoners solely in
order to determine how long a prisoner could survive without the organ
in question.”

It is because of what happened to his family member that Milloy has
“(a)ccepted as a family responsibility the fight against any government
who subjects its citizens to inhumane treatment.”

Dr. Schnare, meanwhile, worked for the EPA for 33 years and was
shocked to learn of the illegal human experimentation by the EPA. He
told the American Tradition Institute, based in Burke, Va., that he is a
plaintiff because he “abhors current governmental experimentation on
humans for the purposes of determining the effect of poisons.”

One new study, called CAPTAIN, is currently ongoing at the University
of North Carolina School of Medicine, believe it or not. CAPTAIN,
according to court documents, “imposes a risk of immediate death from an
acute exposure” to dangerous particulates.

The plaintiffs are seeking an end to CAPTAIN and other sinister
experiments taking place in the Tarheel State and elsewhere, via the
federal courts.

Meanwhile, the EPA scientists, it was revealed, conducted some
potentially lethal experiments in Durham, North Carolina. “order(ing)
human subjects be placed into a gas chamber and exposed to a lethal
gas.” In this case, diesel exhaust.

Three days ago, U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), a ranking member on
the Committee on Environment and Public Works, wrote a letter to that
committee’s chairwoman, U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), addressing
this shocking lawsuit.

Writes Inhofe, in his letter dated September 28^th:
“As I understand from the complaint, the EPA exposed dozens of human
subjects, many of whom were health-impaired (e.g. asthma, metabolic
syndrome, elderly) to concentrated high levels of substances like fine
particulate matter (PM2.5) and diesel exhaust, which EPA has previously
and officially determined can kill people and cause cancer.”

Inhofe continues: “It also appears that the EPA researchers failed to
inform the institutional review board and the study subjects of its
official views concerning the lethality and toxicity of PM2.5 and
diesel exhaust.”

Inhofe also tells Boxer that he would like the committee, which is
responsible for EPA oversight, to “conduct hearings on this matter in
the upcoming ‘lame-duck’ session.”

Inhofe also says that the EPA “may be held criminally liable for its conduct.”

We hope to have more on this story in the coming weeks.
