In this cosmetic talc case, Margie Evans developed ovarian cancer after decades of using Johnson & Johnson's baby powder. Evans' family sues Johnson & Johnson, attributing her cancer to asbestos within the powder.
Representatives for her family accuse Johnson & Johnson of knowing the baby powder contained asbestos, yet hiding this from consumers for profit.
Johnson & Johnson denies these claims, highlighting scientific studies asserting talc's safety and the lack of a link between talc and Evans' ovarian cancer.
Verdict for defendant.
