Fined over talc dangers
In 2024, in a landmark ruling, Johnson & Johnson and its spinoff, Kenvue, were ordered to pay US$45 million to the family of Theresa Garcia, an Illinois woman who attributed her fatal cancer to the companies' talcum-based baby powders. This verdict, delivered by a Chicago jury, marks the first against Kenvue and a significant development in the decade-long litigation surrounding J&J’s baby powder products. The jury assigned 70% of the responsibility for Garcia's death to Kenvue, with the remainder attributed to J&J and its other units.
