Death related to asbestos exposure?
John Williams, from Wollescote, Dudley, passed away from what is believed to be a disease related to asbestos. His widow Valerie Williams, told Stourbridge News that “when he worked at John Barnsley Cranes … old brake shoes would be disposed of by breaking them in half and throwing them away.” The coroner found that the victim had developed a disease that was “almost certainly” linked to asbestos exposure in the past. His family may now pursue for compensation.
