Even the mayor, John Knox, stood to the side, ready to greet people.

Across the street, a police officer stood next to his cruiser, baking in the 90-degree-plus heat.

Any epidemiologist worth salt would have both eyebrows raised when hearing about four of these cases popping up in a two month period in a small area like this one.
You can bet your shorts that there are buried 55 gallon drums of contaminants and old covered over utility areas with a soup of noxious chemicals in them.

The article is designed to poison the potential jury pool before the trials start.
