City of Patton Village Toxic Exposure and Dangerous Industry Injury Lawyers: Holding Corporations Accountable for Your Health

For decades, families in the City of Patton Village have historical ties to the massive industrial infrastructure that defines the Texas Gulf Coast. You may have spent thirty years commuting from City of Patton Village to the refineries in Baytown, the shipyards along the Houston Ship Channel, or the growing construction sites across Montgomery County. You did the hard work that built this region, trusting that the companies providing your paycheck were also protecting your life. What they did not tell you is that the dust on your clothes, the sweet-smelling vapors in the units, and the insulation you stripped with your bare hands were silent killers with timelines measured in decades. At Attorney 911, led by Ralph Manginello and backed by former insurance defense insider Lupe Peña, we know that a diagnosis of mesothelioma, leukemia, or a catastrophic industrial injury is not just “bad luck”—it is often the direct result of a corporation choosing profit over the safety of City of Patton Village workers.

If you or a loved one in the City of Patton Village area is now facing an illness like mesothelioma or has suffered a life-altering injury on a job site, the legal clock is already ticking. Unlike a typical car accident where the harm is immediate and obvious, toxic exposure cases are defined by latency. You might have been exposed to asbestos at a Deer Park facility in 1985 and only received a diagnosis yesterday at a hospital like HCA Houston Healthcare Conroe or Memorial Hermann The Woodlands. The corporations responsible for this have spent the intervening years building legal defenses and offshore trusts to shield themselves from you. We have spent that same time learning their playbook. Ralph Manginello brings 27 years of trial experience, including participation in the historic BP Texas City Refinery explosion litigation that resulted in over $2.1 billion in total compensation. We do not just file claims; we litigate against the biggest companies in the world to ensure City of Patton Village families receive every dollar they are entitled to.

Call 1-888-ATTY-911 for a free, confidential consultation. We work on a contingency-fee basis, meaning you pay us nothing upfront and we only get paid if we win your case. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes, as every case is unique. Principal Office: Houston, Texas.

The Science of Discovery: Why You are Sick Decades After Leaving the Job Site

Toxic exposure is a biological betrayal that happens at the molecular level. For many in City of Patton Village, the symptoms start small—a persistent dry cough, a bit of shortness of breath while walking near Peach Creek, or unexplained fatigue that doesn’t go away with rest. By the time a doctor at a Montgomery County clinic orders a CT scan or a biopsy, the damage has been progressing for twenty, thirty, or even fifty years. Understanding the scientific mechanism of your illness is the first step in proving your legal claim.

When you inhale microscopic asbestos fibers at an industrial site like the former Todd Shipyards or a refinery along the Ship Channel, those fibers do not simply “pass through” your system. Asbestos fibers, particularly the needle-like amphibole varieties (amosite and crocidolite), are biopersistent. They penetrate deep into the alveolar region of the lungs and migrate to the pleural lining—the mesothelium. Your body’s immune system sends macrophages to engulf and destroy these foreign particles, but the fibers are too long and rigid for the macrophages to digest. This results in “frustrated phagocytosis,” where the immune cells die and release a cascade of inflammatory cytokines, including TNF-alpha and IL-1beta, along with reactive oxygen species (ROS). This chronic inflammatory environment causes cumulative DNA damage over decades, eventually leading to the inactivation of tumor suppressor genes like BAP1 and p53, which triggers the malignant transformation known as mesothelioma.

For workers in City of Patton Village exposed to benzene—a ubiquitous chemical in Gulf Coast refining—the process is equally insidious. Benzene is a Group 1 human carcinogen, classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). https://monographs.iarc.who.int. Once inhaled or absorbed through the skin, benzene is metabolized in the liver by the CYP2E1 enzyme into benzene oxide and eventually muconaldehyde. These metabolites are highly toxic to the hematopoietic stem cells in your bone marrow. They cause specific chromosomal translocations, such as t(8;21) or inv(16), which are pathognomonic markers for benzene-induced Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS). If you worked with petroleum products and are now diagnosed with these blood disorders, the cause is likely written in your DNA.

It is critical to realize that there is no “safe” level of exposure to these substances. While OSHA sets permissible exposure limits (PELs), such as 0.1 fibers per cubic centimeter for asbestos (29 CFR 1910.1001), these are feasibility standards, not safety standards. https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/regulations/standardnumber/1910/1910.1001. Many City of Patton Village residents were exposed to levels hundreds of times higher than these limits before modern regulations were enforced.

If you have recognized these symptoms in yourself or a family member, you need a firm that understands the science as well as the law. Attorney Ralph Manginello explains the criteria for high-value toxic tort cases on the Attorney 911 channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d690a218.

The Insider Advantage: Breaking the Corporate Defense Playbook in City of Patton Village

When a City of Patton Village resident files a lawsuit against a major chemical company or an asbestos manufacturer, they aren’t just fighting a company; they are fighting an entire infrastructure designed to deny their existence. This is where Lupe Peña provides our clients with a “nuclear” advantage. Before joining Attorney 911, Lupe was an insurance defense attorney. He worked for the very firms that represent corporate giants like ExxonMobil, Shell, and 3M. He has seen the spreadsheets where they calculate how little they can pay a dying worker and still call it a settlement. He knows how they use the “identification defense” to claim you can’t prove their specific product caused your cancer, or how they exploit statutes of repose to bar claims before the victim even knows they are sick.

We use Lupe’s insider knowledge to front-run their tactics. While they are preparing to ask you about your smoking history during a deposition to distract from the asbestos in your lungs, we are already subpoenaing decades of internal memoranda that prove they knew their products were lethal as early as the 1930s. We have access to the “Sumner Simpson” letters and other smoking-gun documents that show a coordinated industry conspiracy to suppress medical research. When we take your case, we investigate every potential defendant—from the product manufacturer to the premises owner and the various contractors on the site.

As Chad Harris noted in his 5-star Google review of our firm: “A true PITT BULL and fighter. He don’t play! Unlike some law firms where you are dealing with an answering service… that’s NOT the case with this law firm.” This aggressive advocacy is essential in toxic torts, where the defendants have unlimited resources to outlast you. We don’t just wait for them to make an offer; we build the case for a Montgomery County jury to see the full extent of their negligence.

Whether you were a pipefitter, an insulator, or a rigger, the corporations that exposed you had a duty to warn you of the dangers. They failed. We hold them accountable.

Mesothelioma and Asbestos: The Anchor of Justice for City of Patton Village Families

Mesothelioma is a signature disease. Unlike many other cancers that can have varied causes, mesothelioma is caused almost exclusively by asbestos. If you live in City of Patton Village and have been diagnosed with this disease, you were exposed to asbestos—whether you knew it at the time or not. The latency period for mesothelioma is 20 to 50 years, meaning the exposure that is killing you today likely occurred while you were working a turnaround at the Marathon refinery in the 1970s or 80s, or perhaps even secondary exposure from a parent who worked at the Houston power plants and brought fibers home on their work clothes.

The Biological Reality of Mesothelioma Histology

When we litigate your case, we look closely at your pathology reports. There are three primary histological types of mesothelioma, and each carries different legal and medical weights:

1. Epithelioid (50-70% of cases): The most common type, offering the best prognosis for treatment but still terminal.
2. Sarcomatoid (10-20% of cases): The most aggressive form, involving spindle-shaped cells that spread rapidly.
3. Biphasic (20-35% of cases): A mixture of both cell types.

Proving your case requires linking your specific histology to your work history in places like the City of Patton Village, Montgomery County, and the surrounding industrial corridors. We work with board-certified B-readers—radiologists specifically trained by NIOSH to identify asbestos-related lung changes on chest X-rays—to ensure your diagnosis is airtight for the court. https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/chestradiography/breader-info.html.

The Dual-Path Compensation Strategy

Most City of Patton Village victims do not realize that they may have two separate paths to recovery that can be pursued simultaneously:

• Asbestos Bankruptcy Trusts: There are over 60 active trusts with approximately $30 billion in assets. These were established by companies like Johns-Manville, Owens Corning, and Babcock & Wilcox when they filed for bankruptcy to handle future claims. https://www.justice.gov/civil/common/reca. These claims can often be processed faster than a lawsuit, though they usually pay a lower percentage of the total claim value.
• Civil Litigation: For companies that are still solvent—such as John Crane Inc. or certain premises owners in the Houston area—we file direct lawsuits. These cases often yield significantly higher compensation, with median verdicts for mesothelioma historically ranging from $5 million to over $11 million.

We pursue both paths to maximize the money that goes into your pocket to pay for treatments at world-class centers like MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. https://www.mdanderson.org. Every day you wait, the payment percentages in those trusts can decline as more people file claims. The Manville Trust, for example, has seen its payment percentage drop significantly over time. Call 1-888-ATTY-911 today to lock in your claim while assets remain.

Benzene Exposure: The Silent Blood Cancer Risk in Gulf Coast Refining

If you spent your career in the refineries near City of Patton Village, you likely encountered benzene daily. It is a sweet-smelling, colorless liquid found in crude oil and produced during the refining process. Thousands of workers in Montgomery County have been exposed to benzene while cleaning tanks, sampling process streams, or performing maintenance on units like the Catalytic Reformer.

Benzene does not cause lung cancer; it causes blood cancers. The molecular mechanism involves the depletion of hematopoietic progenitor cells. Over time, the cumulative mutation burden leads to:

• Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML): A fast-growing cancer of the blood and bone marrow.
• Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS): Often called “pre-leukemia,” where the bone marrow fails to produce enough healthy blood cells.
• Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL): A cancer of the lymphatic system.

The OSHA PEL for benzene is 1 part per million (ppm) as an 8-hour time-weighted average (29 CFR 1910.1028). https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/regulations/standardnumber/1910/1910.1028. However, recent scientific literature suggests that even exposures significantly below this level over a 20-year career can double or triple your risk of AML. In 2024, a Pennsylvania jury awarded $725 million against ExxonMobil for a single benzene/AML case (Past results do not guarantee future outcomes). This sent a message to the entire industry: the era of hiding the benzene risk is over.

If you are a City of Patton Village resident who worked as a refinery operator, gauger, or petroleum inspector and have been diagnosed with leukemia, we will reconstruct your career-length benzene dose. We identify the specific units, the specific spills, and the lack of proper respiratory protection that led to your diagnosis.

Don’t let a corporation blame your genetics for a chemical-induced cancer. Call 1-888-ATTY-911 for an aggressive evaluation of your benzene claim. Watch Ralph Manginello discuss what makes a “million-dollar case” in industrial litigation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmMwE7GqUFI.

Construction and Workplace Injuries: Beyond Workers’ Compensation in Montgomery County

City of Patton Village is located in one of the fastest-growing construction corridors in the United States. With the expansion of I-45 and the massive residential developments in East Montgomery County, construction workers are facing increasing pressure to meet deadlines, often at the expense of safety. If you are injured on a job site—whether it is a scaffold fall, a trench collapse, or a crane accident—it is highly likely that your employer will immediately tell you to file a “workers’ comp claim” and nothing else.

What they are not telling you is that workers’ compensation in Texas is often the bare minimum. It covers a portion of your lost wages and your immediate medical bills, but it pays nothing for your pain and suffering, your mental anguish, or your physical disfigurement. Most importantly, workers’ comp usually has a cap on benefits.

The Third-Party Claim Pathway

At Attorney 911, we look for the “Third-Party Claim.” If your injury was caused by the negligence of a general contractor, a subcontractor from another company, an equipment manufacturer, or the property owner, you can sue them directly for full, uncapped damages.

• Scaffold Falls: Under OSHA 29 CFR 1926 Subpart L, scaffolds must be inspected by a “competent person” before every shift. If a scaffold component was defective or improperly erected by a different crew, that is a massive third-party liability. https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/regulations/standardnumber/1926/1926.451.
• Trench Collapses: Soil weighs roughly 3,000 pounds per cubic yard. A worker buried under just a few feet of earth faces immediate chest compression and “crush syndrome,” where muscle necrosis (rhabdomyolysis) releases myoglobin into the blood, causing acute kidney failure. If the trench was over 5 feet deep and lacked shoring or shielding required by 29 CFR 1926 Subpart P, the negligence is clear.
• Crane Collapse: If a crane fails due to improper setup, overloading, or lack of mandated inspections (29 CFR 1926 Subpart CC), we pursue the leasing company and the site manager.

As Christopher Wick noted after working with us: “Ralph & the Manginello law firm attorneys did more (in less than 8 weeks!) on my accident case than a previous attorney who had the case for OVER a year.” We move fast because construction evidence, like tire marks or loose scaffolding, is removed from the site in days.

If you’ve been hurt on a Montgomery County job site, do not let your employer’s HR department dictate your future. Call 1-888-ATTY-911 and let Lupe Peña evaluate if you have a third-party claim that could be worth ten times what workers’ comp is offering.

Industrial Explosions and Refinery Accidents: The BP Texas City Legacy

The City of Patton Village is geographically situated within the “blast zone” of the Texas Gulf Coast’s industrial heart. When a refinery or chemical plant explodes, the injuries are catastrophic and multi-layered. You aren’t just dealing with broken bones; you are dealing with:

• Primary Blast Injury: Overpressure waves rupturing eardrums and causing internal organ barotrauma.
• Secondary Blast Injury: Shrapnel and flying debris causing penetrating wounds.
• Tertiary Blast Injury: Being thrown by the force of the explosion.
• Quaternary Blast Injury: Thermal burns from the resulting fireball and inhalation injury from toxic chemical release.

Ralph Manginello’s experience in the 2005 BP Texas City litigation is a cornerstone of our firm. That explosion, caused by the overfilling of a raffinate splitter tower and a faulty blowdown drum, proved that these disasters are almost always caused by a corporate culture of cost-cutting. The CSB investigation into that event documented how BP ignored safety warnings for years. https://www.csb.gov/bp-america-refinery-explosion/.

When an incident occurs today, like the 2019 ExxonMobil Baytown fire or the TPC Port Neches explosion, the companies immediately go into damage control mode. They may offer you a small “settlement check” or ask you to sign a release before you even know the extent of your internal injuries. Never sign anything without a lawyer from Attorney 911 reviewing it first. We utilize modern technology, including cell phone documentation guides (https://share.transistor.fm/s/a42daf06), to preserve the scene before the evidence is “cleaned up.”

If you or a coworker were injured in a blast, you are likely facing PTSD and long-term respiratory issues in addition to physical wounds. We fight for the lifetime of care you will need. Call 1-888-ATTY-911.

Forever Chemicals (PFAS) and Community Contamination in Montgomery County

While occupational hazards are the primary focus for many, City of Patton Village residents are also at risk from environmental contamination. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), known as “forever chemicals,” have been used for decades in industrial firefighting foam (AFFF) at refineries and military bases like Ellington Field. These chemicals do not break down in the environment; they leach into the groundwater and bioaccumulate in the human body.

The health consequences of PFAS ingestion are devastating:

• Kidney Cancer
• Testicular Cancer
• Thyroid Disease
• Ulcerative Colitis
• Preeclampsia in pregnant women

The EPA recently established a maximum contaminant level (MCL) of just 4 parts per trillion (ppt) for PFOA and PFOS in drinking water, reflecting how dangerous these substances are even at vanishingly small concentrations. https://www.epa.gov/sdwa/and-polyfluoroalkyl-substances-pfas. If your well water or municipal supply near City of Patton Village has tested positive for these chemicals, the industrial facilities or manufacturers (like 3M or DuPont) who released them may be liable for your medical monitoring and personal injuries.

We are currently tracking the expanding litigation against these companies, who knew about the bioaccumulation risk as early as the 1970s and chose to keep the chemicals on the market. Call 1-888-ATTY-911 for a free evaluation of your community contamination claim.

Your Rights as an Immigrant Worker in the City of Patton Village

Many of the hardest and most dangerous jobs in construction and industrial cleaning in the City of Patton Village area are performed by immigrant workers. We know that there is a deep fear among this community that filing a legal claim will lead to trouble with immigration authorities or deportation.

Hear this clearly: Your immigration status does not affect your right to a safe workplace or your right to compensation for an injury or toxic exposure. Under federal law and the Texas court system, you are entitled to the same protections as any other worker. If you were exposed to asbestos, silica, or chemicals, or if you were hurt on a job site, your status is irrelevant to the liability of the corporation that harmed you.

Lupe Peña and Ralph Manginello are proud to advocate for the Hispanic workforce. Lupe is a third-generation Texan with roots in the historic King Ranch, and he is fluent in Spanish. We offer a safe, confidential environment where your rights are the only thing that matters. We have a dedicated podcast series on immigration issues featuring attorney Magali Candler: https://share.transistor.fm/s/7787dfb4.

The Clock is Ticking: Why You Must Act Now

In high-stakes litigation, time is the enemy of the victim. This is true for two major reasons:

1. Statutes of Limitations: In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of an injury or the discovery of a disease to file a lawsuit (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.003). While the “discovery rule” helps for latent diseases like mesothelioma, identifying the exact “date of discovery” is a common legal battleground.
2. Evidence Spoliation: Corporations have routine document destruction policies. If we do not send a “spoliation letter” immediately, required safety logs, industrial hygiene reports, and chemical manifests can be legally shredded. Furthermore, witnesses in asbestos cases are often in their 70s and 80s; their testimony must be preserved via deposition while they are still with us.
3. Trust Fund Depletion: Asbestos trust funds are not infinite. As more victims are diagnosed and file claims, the funds lower their “payment percentage” to ensure money lasts for future claimants. Waiting six months to file could result in a 5% or 10% reduction in your payout.

As Stephanie Hernandez shared in her Google review: “When I felt I had no hope or direction, Leonor reached out to me… she took all the weight of my worries off my shoulders… I really made feel like I mattered throughout the entire process.” We provide that same sense of urgency and care to every City of Patton Village client.

Frequently Asked Questions for City of Patton Village Residents

Can I file a mesothelioma claim in City of Patton Village if my exposure was 40 years ago?

Yes. Under the Texas discovery rule, the two-year statute of limitations does not begin when you were exposed; it begins when you were diagnosed or when you reasonably should have known that your illness was caused by asbestos. Since mesothelioma latency is often 20-50 years, most claims are filed decades after the work ended. However, you must act quickly after a diagnosis. 1-888-ATTY-911.

How do I prove I was exposed to asbestos if the facility I worked at is closed?

We utilize a massive database of work histories and product identification documents. We can often identify exactly which brands of insulation, gaskets, and packing were used at specific Montgomery County and Houston-area sites during specific years. We also use co-worker testimony and union records to reconstruct your exposure.

Can I sue for benzene exposure if I also receive workers’ compensation?

Yes, in many cases. While workers’ comp may prevent you from suing your direct employer (unless they are a “non-subscriber” in Texas), it does NOT prevent you from suing the manufacturer of the benzene-containing product or the owner of the premises where you were exposed. These “third-party claims” often provide the majority of a victim’s compensation.

What is my mesothelioma case worth?

Every case is unique, but mesothelioma settlements generally range from $1 million to $1.4 million, with trial verdicts often reaching $5 million to $15 million or more. Factors include your age, your work history, the specific defendants involved, and the impact on your family. Past results vary and do not guarantee future outcomes.

Will I have to go to court?

The majority of toxic exposure and industrial injury cases settle before reaching a jury. However, we prepare every case as if it is going to trial. This “trial-ready” posture—backed by Ralph Manginello’s federal court experience—is what forces corporations to offer fair settlements. If they won’t pay, we are ready for the courtroom.

What if I was a smoker and have lung cancer or mesothelioma?

Smoking does not cause mesothelioma. Asbestos is the only known cause. If you have lung cancer, smoking and asbestos exposure have a “synergistic” effect, meaning your risk is 50 to 90 times higher than a non-smoker. The law recognizes that the corporation is still liable for their contribution to your illness.

Do I qualify for the Camp Lejeune Justice Act if I live in City of Patton Village now?

Yes. If you were stationed at, lived at, or worked at Camp Lejeune for at least 30 days between 1953 and 1987, you may file a claim regardless of where you live now. The law allows for federal lawsuits against the government for various cancers and conditions linked to the contaminated water.

What is the cost for a consultation?

It is 100% free. We will review your medical records, your work history, and your legal options at no cost to you. If we take your case, we work on a contingency fee, which means we advance all costs and only get paid if we recover money for you.

What are the first symptoms of asbestosis vs. mesothelioma?

Asbestosis is a non-cancerous scarring of the lungs (fibrosis) that causes progressive shortness of breath and a persistent dry cough. Mesothelioma is a cancer of the lining that can cause chest pain, fluid buildup (pleural effusion), and weight loss. Both require immediate medical and legal attention.

Who will handle my case?

You will have direct access to Ralph Manginello and Lupe Peña. Unlike “mass tort mills” where you are just a number, we treat our clients like family. As Eddy M. noted: “Every question I had was answered thoroughly and in a timely manner… Melani was outstanding—always responsive.”

Can family members file a claim if the worker has already passed away?

Yes. We file “Wrongful Death” and “Survival Actions” on behalf of surviving spouses and children. These claims can recover the deceased’s medical bills, lost wages, and your loss of companionship and emotional support.

Is there a settlement for PFAS water contamination in Montgomery County?

There are ongoing massive settlements (like the $10.3 billion 3M settlement) that provide money to water providers. Individual personal injury lawsuits for people who developed cancer from PFAS are also active and growing.

What is the “exclusive remedy” rule?

It is a legal doctrine that usually prevents you from suing your employer if they have workers’ compensation insurance. However, Texas’s “non-subscriber” law and the “third-party claim” pathway are ways we successfully navigate around this rule to get you full compensation.

How long does a toxic tort lawsuit take?

Trust fund claims can often be resolved in 6 to 18 months. Full civil litigation typically takes 1 to 3 years, though many courts provide “expedited dockets” for terminal mesothelioma patients.

What is high-voltage electrocution damage?

Electrocution causes internal “cooking” of tissues along the path of the current. At 50 milliamps, the heart goes into ventricular fibrillation. Survivors often face lifelong neurological damage and cataracts.

Can I sue for a crane accident if I wasn’t the operator?

Yes. If you were struck by a crane or a falling load due to equipment failure or site mismanagement, you have a premises liability or third-party negligence claim.

What is silica dust?

Crystalline silica is a mineral found in sand and stone. When cut (as in quartz countertops) or used in fracking, it creates respirable dust that causes silicosis, a permanent and progressive lung disease.

Does Attorney 911 help with VA claims?

We coordinate with your VA benefits for toxic exposure, ensuring that your civil lawsuit and your VA disability rating work together to provide maximum support.

What was the result of the BP Texas City explosion?

That case resulted in over $2.1 billion in settlements and documented massive safety violations. Ralph Manginello’s involvement in that litigation gave him the experience needed to handle any industrial disaster.

What if I don’t remember the brand names of the products I used?

That is normal. We use expert witnesses and site-specific records to identify the products. Most workers remember the “colors” or the “packaging” of the products, which our experts can match to specific manufacturers.

Can I change lawyers if my current firm isn’t responding?

Yes. You have a right to your file and a right to choose your advocate. Many clients come to us after being ignored by large, national advertised firms.

How does air sampling work in a lawsuit?

We subpoena the “Industrial Hygiene” reports that your employer was required to maintain. These reports often contain the “smoking gun” evidence that airborne toxin levels were well above safe limits.

What is an “NCI-designated cancer center”?

It is a hospital that has met the highest standards of the National Cancer Institute for research and treatment. MD Anderson in Houston is the top-ranked center in the world.

Do I have a claim for “take-home” exposure?

Yes. If your spouse or parent worked with asbestos and you developed mesothelioma from laundering their clothes or being in their vehicle, you have a “secondary exposure” claim.

What is a “B-reader”?

A NIOSH-certified radiologist who can provide a legally admissible reading of your X-rays to prove asbestos or silica disease.

Is Roundup still on the market?

Yes, but Monsanto has faced billions in verdicts for failing to warn that the glyphosate in Roundup can cause Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma.

What is the Jones Act?

A federal law (46 USC 30104) that gives seamen special rights to sue their maritime employers for negligence.

How does “comparative negligence” work?

In many states, if you were 10% responsible (e.g., not wearing a mask), your award is reduced by 10%. However, in some cases, employer negligence is so gross that this defense can be stricken.

What is rhabdomyolysis in a trench collapse?

It is a life-threatening condition where crushed muscles release toxins into the blood that shut down the kidneys.
