George, you are such a great investigative reporter. Any chance on learning more about Yearick and Crooks?

For a few years II worked for a nonprofit "international development" organization whose board chair was a Chemonics board member. The experience soured me permanently on AID-funded international development.

"Chemonics" made me think of the toxic waste sites in the effected areas of NC. But, alas, one of the companies is Chemtronics". Darn. I was hoping that connection could also be made. But it is certainly a story. None of the clean-up had been done, but now all the toxic waste has washed away into the rivers. https://www.blackmountainnews.com/story/news/local/2017/01/18/hallucinogens-tear-gas-made-chemtronics-site/96455632/ Melissa Dykes did a great job exposing some of these issues of a possible cover-up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukdvcQu9Xmg
