FAMILY SUES WALMART OVER DEAD MOUSE FOUND IN MILK CONTAINER (1184 hits)
A Louisville family filed a lawsuit Monday against Wal-Mart, claiming they found a dead mouse in a milk container they had been drinking from for three days.
The lawsuit, filed in Jefferson Circuit Court, alleges that Robert and Rosalind Grant as well as their 23-month-old granddaughter sought medical attention and treatment in May after finding the mouse.
The child had blood in her stool as a result of drinking the tainted milk, according to the suit.
the suit also claims the Grants have suffered embarrassment, humiliation and emotional distress.
Claims made in filing a lawsuit present only one side of the case. A call to Wal-Mart officials was not immediately returned.
According to the suit, the Grants bought the milk at the Sam's Club - which is owned by Wal-Mart - on May 1 at 1401 Alliant Ave. and the container hadn't been tampered with. On May 5, the family opened the milk and drank from it for three days before Rosalind Grant "discovered a dead mouse" in the container, the suit says.
A manager at the Sam's Club declined to comment and referred calls to Wal-Mart.
The suit is seeking compensatory and punitive damages and a trial by jury.

Siebra, as one who has worked in food processing plants, it never surprises me at what can be found in foods coming from processed foods...B-U-T...
and you see how I have put emphis on the but, because of the word RAT itself...
R-A-T-S are every where and at any time...and, on top of this, the courts now a day uses the CSI methods of court proofs and Walmart can afford the best going in this field from the git go.(smile)
NOW MY GREATEST PROBLEM WITH THIS WHOLE THING IS WAS THIS MILK EVEN PROCCESED IN THIS COUNTRY IN THE FIRST PLACE?!? AND IT IS FOR THIS REASON "I" HOPE THERE IS A LAW SUIT AGAINST WALMART.(SMILE)
