A federal grand jury today charged a U.S. Company and two Chinese businesses with manufacturing and importing pet food that contained unsafe ingredients. ChemNutra, based in Las Vegas, and its top executives are now facing 26 misdemeanor counts and one felony.
Last March, more than 150 brands of dog and cat food were recalled after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration received reports that animals were getting sick after eating tainted food. By Justice Department estimates, more than 4,000 dogs and cats died after eating contaminated products.
