It Could Have Been Avoided
Introduction by Captain Paul Watson
The recent devastating oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico could have been avoided if one former Federal EPA agent had been allowed to do his job. Scott West, who now works for the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, retired early from the EPA after the Federal government pulled the plug on his investigation into negligence by British Petroleum (BP) in Alaska in 2006. West was well on the road to sending some BP executives to jail when his investigation was quashed before it was complete, and BP paid a $20 million dollar fine and pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor offense. If West had been allowed to complete his investigation, some BP executives would have been more motivated to have taken more precautions to ensure that incidents like that which happened on Earth Day in the Gulf would not have happened.

Justice interrupted has now borne the consequences of the Federal government’s compromise with those now responsible for the most devastating oil spill in history.

The following article is by former EPA agent Scott West. West is now director of investigations for Sea Shepherd.

Scott was quoted in an article in Newsweek last week about this incident: http://www.newsweek.com/id/237651
