2. I have litigated with BP off and on for most of the last 33 years.

Whether it was asbestos, the March 23rd 2005, Texas City plant explosion, or the BP oil spill, BP has been #1 in the most odious companies I have been against. They have consistently put profits over people throughout my time against them.

I have been followed and filmed, as was my family, in the Texas City explosion case and again during the BP oil spill litigation. They have lied, committed felonies, and been fined what would seem to be huge amounts ($50 million) but are drops in the bucket for BP.

For a taste, Google Eva Rowe, a young lady at the time that lost both her mom and dad in the explosion. She maintains that BP murdered her parents and her story is incredible. Ed Bradley, of 60 Minutes fame, came out of short retirement (he secretly had terminal cancer) to make her his last story.
