Lawyers witheld evidece of black lung disease while coal miners were geting sick.The dust from working in a coal mine caused the miners to get the disease. Lawyers and big corporations tried to cover everthing up to protect temselves while the workers contiuned to breath unhealthy air. Gary Fox is one of the people affected by the disease he worked in a coal mine or 25 years whe he first noticed a shortness of breath. Then he started coughing up black mucus which caused him and his wife to take things to the courtroom. A judge denied him when he asked to recieve benefits from the company he used to work for and he is still fighting the case today.
