It's not the way our society works, it should be fair and democratic, it shouldn't be this sort of riding over people roughshod.

"The state that a kitchen is in under normal circumstances has a threshold at one level, but when you know that there's a link to a death, you have to hold it to a higher standard to be absolutely sure that it won't sustain listeria in that environment when food's going to thousands of people." "The product that we put into that hospital was completely safe and we weren't the ones that fed it to an elderly person who shouldn't get those sorts of products anyway," he said outside court earlier this week.

"I've never had this situation before and I can see that it's not nice the way it's been handled and the way [the DHHS] is doing it to the company," she said. "My life is in limbo, I can't function properly — I work every day, I can't function if I don't go to work," she said.
