US federal prosecutions; the new food safety
enforcement tool?
Beginning in 2014 with the sentencing of two
Colorado cantaloupe growers and continuing
with guilty pleas from one of the US’ biggest
egg producers, as well as the historic jury trial of
the officers and executives of a former peanut-
processing corporation, federal criminal law was put
through its paces throughout the course of 2014,
and all in the name of food safety. Food safety
agencies, including the USDA and FDA, received
unprecedented backing by the US Department of
Justice, which resulted in a multitude of criminal
prosecutions of food industry executives across
multiple states.
Long since tipped as the way forward by the United
States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the
food industry as a food safety enforcement tool, the
defense bar began warning food industry executives
that they, too, could be charged with ‘no fault’ federal
criminal misdemeanours if businesses shipped
contaminated food with or without the executive’s
personal knowledge or consent. Subsequently, the
Colorado cantaloupe defendants each received
six months of home confinement after pleading
guilty to six of the ‘strict liability’ federal criminal
misdemeanours solely on account of their product
being distributed with the deadly pathogen, Listeria
monocytogenes. The same fate awaits the egg
producers who are still awaiting sentencing for
‘strict liability’ misdemeanours after the defendants
salmonella-contaminated eggs were introduced into
interstate commerce.
Similarly, all five defendants from the peanut-
processing corporation that produced salmonella-
laced peanut butter and peanut paste in 2008,
which resulted in the nation’s biggest recall of such
products in history, an estimated US$1 billion, and
which tragically resulted in the deaths of nine of
the more than 700 hundred victims, are likely to be
sentenced in 2015. Two of the defendants pleaded
guilty before trial under agreements that saw them
testify for the government and criminal prosecutions
against the remaining three executives, which
concluded in September 2014, resulting in 97 federal
felony counts between them, including conspiracy,
wire fraud, obstruction of justice and falsification of
lab results. As each felony carries a maximum of 5
to 10 years, there are enough convictions between
the three to send each to federal prison for the
rest of their lives. However, none is known to have
any previous convictions and federal sentencing
guidelines will come into play after a federal
sentencing report is completed for each of the three.
Other sectors within the US have also not avoided
the court’s attentions in 2014. Fourteen people
were arrested in mid-December in connection
with a deadly 2012 outbreak of fungal meningitis
linked to steroid injections from a Massachusetts
compounding pharmacy. Two of the 14 arrested
were the owners of the company, each of whom
has been charged with second-degree murder and
racketeering in connection with the 64 deaths that
resulted from the outbreak. The 131-count indictment
alleges that the employees were aware that they
were producing medication in an unsafe and
unsanitary manner, yet distributed it anyway. Attorney
General Eric Holder said, ‘American consumers have
a right to know that their medications are safe to use.’
Although the requisite knowledge standard of those
involved with the meningitis outbreak differs from the
‘strict liability’ standard for those involved in a food-

2. Advice - Support - Response 2
borne outbreak, the message is the same; regardless
of industry, proactive measures with regard to
quality control, safety and sanitisation should be
implemented to ensure consumer health.
Legal experts note that, not only are we seeing an
escalation in criminal prosecutions of food-industry
executives because of product safety failings, but
that there is an increase in the resources that the
government is devoting to prosecution and how
aggressively it prosecutes a case. In the case of
the peanut-processing corporation, the prosecution
called 45 witnesses and the government indicted
these individuals on 76 federal felony counts and
went to trial on 71 of them. The charges carry prison
sentences of up to 20 years apiece. Moreover, the
government aggressively sought information from
several law firms that formerly represented the
corporation by issuing subpoenas and demanded
that these attorneys be available for testimony at
trial despite the attorneys claiming attorney-client
privileges.
The Department of Justice and the FDA have made
US food safety a priority and both believe that one of
the best ways to protect food safety is to criminally
punish those who violate food safety laws and
regulations, even if unknowingly doing so. Stuart
Delery, Acting Associate Attorney General, said,
‘When those responsible for producing or supplying
our food lie and cut corners ... they put all of us at
risk. The Department of Justice will not hesitate to
pursue any person whose criminal conduct risks
the safety of Americans who have done nothing
more than eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.’
Following the successful, high-profile prosecution of
those involved in the contaminated cantaloupe and
peanut butter cases, the food industry should be
aware of this new means of regulation; regulation not
by litigation but by criminal prosecution.
