Original Chemetco documents

These documents were carefully selected from many hundreds of thousands of pages of prosecution evidence held by the EPA in the state of Illinois and by the US federal EPA. 

They are published here online at the trip flare for the first time. 

Most have been interpreted  or annotated  to make them more easily understood by those not familiar with the Chemetco criminal case.
