A US federal appeals court has ruled that the rights of victims in BP’s fatal Texas City explosion in March 2005 were violated by US prosecutors who reached a secret plea agreement with the UK oil group late last year before consulting victims. The victims insist the plea deal is too lenient and they should have been consulted on the terms. “We are confident that when those objections are considered, this sweetheart plea bargain will be ultimately rejected,” said David Perry, lead attorney for the victims.
