Nuclear Hotseat Hosted By Libbe Halevy

Nuclear Hotseat Producer/Host Libbe HaLevy attended the US 9th District Court Hearing on USS Reagan Sailors v. Tokyo Electric Power Company. The sailors were on an humanitarian aid mission to Japan following the 2011 earthquake and tsunami which caused the Fukushima Daiichi triple reactor meltdowns. TEPCO never informed the US Navy of the dangerous release of radioactivity from the crippled nuclear reactors. As a result, the sailors were exposed to catastrophic levels of radiation. Seven have died and the rest continue to suffer the consequences to their health and genetic future.
