Episode Details

A tragic fall at Smithfield Foods’ massive North Carolina plant claimed the life of 43-year-old father Abundio Villa Miranda—just the third fatal incident in ten months. OSHA fined the facility over $35,000 for four critical safety violations tied to the accident, including failures in fall protection and confined space protocols. With more than $100K in prior penalties and a lawsuit looming, the family’s lawyer calls this death avoidable—and the nation’s largest pork processor is under intense scrutiny as OSHA’s investigation continues.
