Girl Nearly Dies From Raw Milk, Farmer Faces Little Punishment

A California girl nearly died after drinking raw goat milk from an unlicensed farm, according to a ProPublica investigation. Despite evidence against the farmer, state regulators took minimal action. The report says California has numerous black-market dairies operating openly, sustained by consumer demand for raw milk that regulators and health experts attribute largely to misinformation about its benefits.
Why now: Renewed public debate over raw milk safety and weak regulation of unlicensed dairies.
