April 7, 2011
After assessing 4.2 million dollars in penalties to Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad after it was found to have fabricated evidence and interfered with investigations, the Supreme Court of Minnesota expressed concern over the Railroads misconduct.

Robert Pottroff and Sharon VanDyck argued the case on behalf of the families of those killed in the 2003 railroad crossing accident in Anoka, Minnesota.

These arguments were a refreshing reminder of how well the American Judicial system can work.
