Officials with USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service refused to share documents regarding the agency's inspections and enforcement at the Boar's Head plant in Jarratt, Virginia, plus inspection reports from eight other company factories across the U.S. The AP asked for records regarding the listeria outbreak that, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, has killed 10 people and sickened at least 50 in 19 states since May. Listeria bacteria were initially detected in samples of Boar's Head liverwurst and later traced to illnesses in people.
