Eternit bis, the prosecutor who asked for life imprisonment Stephan Schmidheiny: "He worked in Casale like a colonialist"
"There are 392 cases, but there are 392 families, children w ho have lost th e ir parents and have not been able to study, mothers, brothers, sisters, wives, husbands. One could say - the magistrate explained in the courtroom - th a t we are faced w ith a massacre due to asbestos: no, gentlemen, judges: this is a massacre o f a man fo r w hich Mr. Schmidheiny is also responsible". The entrepreneur, w ho has never attended any hearing, is liable fo r voluntary homicide w ith possible malice. M y colleague Maria Giovanna Compare, prosecutor of Vercelli who supported Colace in the investigation and in the debate before the Novara judges, lined up a series o f numbers. In the years covered by the investigation (1975-1986) "the same concentration o f asbestos measured in the industrial area o f Milan was found in agricultural areas miles away fro m the Casale plant.
Even fo r the wives o f employees there was an 18 times higher risk o f falling ill than the average. W hoever lived w ith an E ternit w o rke r fo r 10 years increased his percentage of getting sick by 9 times higher than any o th e r individual". Again in 2001 it w ill be ascertained th a t "for those who have worked at Eternit, the risk o f falling ill w ith mesothelioma increases by 50 times, fo r those w ho have lived between 500 meters and 1.5 km from the factory, it increases 22 times until it decreases only a fte r 10 Km fro m the fa c to ry ".
In the records o f this investigation ended up "real manuals o f disinform ation and m ystification o f the real risks o f falling ill due to progressive exposure to asbestos" explained the magistrate outlining Schmidheiny as "a colonialist entrepreneur" among those responsible fo r a massacre "which is not the massacre o f asbestos, but also th a t o f a man w ho has juggled between awareness o f the harmfulness o f the product and the survival o f the m arket".
"He was aware o f the conditions in w hich the company was. He did not know the names and the number o f people w ho w ould have died, but he stubbornly and lucidly carried on the business by accepting the eventuality o f a massacre, he joined it ".
