On July 1, 1985, the president, plant manager, and foreman of Film Recovery Systems, Inc., were sentenced to 25 years in the Illinois state prison and fined $ 10,000 each after being found guilty of murder in the 1983 death of an employee exposed to cyanide in a silver-recovery process.* The court found that the three executives were “ totally knowledgeable of the hazards of cyanide” and failed to communicate those hazards to employees, who were mostly undocumented Polish and Mexican immigrants.
