Len Radford, from Maesteg, and Andrew Hutin and Stephen Galsworthy, from Port Talbot, died after the blast ripped through furnace five in 2001. Five workers were also critically injured in the worst accident in the UK's steel industry for 26 years. The families of two of the men killed have expressed disappointment with the inquest's accidental death verdicts. Speaking outside Swansea's Guildhall after the inquest, Stephen Galsworthy's brother Ian, said: "We are bitterly disappointed with the verdict today, believing it should have been one of unlawful killing. Coroner Dr David Osborne had ruled that possible verdicts of gross negligence and manslaughter should not be considered because they could not be justified.

"Perceptions" only says this pervert behavior is typical of a stratum of society:- judiciary, coroners, senior local and national bureaucrats, police-chiefs etc, which is deep in corruption. This confirmed by later research, for that "Laworjustice" page, indicating national pedophile networks in that same stratum - later confirmed by USA police-work but not, strangely enough, by UK police work (possibly because too many senior police / judiciary are in pedophile or drug networks). [You'll find they've not been prosecuted - despite the clear evidence presented by USA investigators.] We've got to include the "posh" UK media (ie BBC) in these suspected networks since they've had all the information for more than a generation but done everything to hide the truth from ordinary folk - always painting a "rosy" picture ------------------------------------------------ RECENT `CORUS' ACCIDENTS Last Updated: Monday, 11 April, 2005, Police have named a 52-year-old man who died in an accident at a Corus plant in south Wales.
