Health officials tasked with investigating birth defects in Kettleman City seem to have changed their tune.
Tuesday morning, their reports claimed there was no one cause of the birth defects, which led people to believe there was no connection to a nearby toxic waste plant.
Tuesday night, when confronted by a confused community, health officials said nothing could be ruled out.

WM is the largest waste recycling business in this country...probably the world. Perhaps the study should be done by an outside unbiased and impartial committee; I find the findings so far and so soon by the state to be questionable at best
