"Worlds Importance"...
A third case of flesh-eating bacteria has emerged with ties to Georgia, myFOXatlanta reported.
A landscaper from Cartersville is in critical condition at Doctors Hospital in Augusta battling the potentially deadly disease. That's the same place University of West Georgia graduate student Aimee Copeland is being treated.
A Piedmont, S.C. mom is also fighting the infection days after giving birth here in Atlanta at Emory University Hospital Midtown.
The new flesh-eating bacteria case involves Bobby Vaughn. The Cartersville landscaper was injured at work when he fell from a tree two weeks ago and suffered a cut to his side.
"He got a cut on his side and took him to the hospital. My son said he was throwing up…They treated him, he chose to leave. He got up the next morning it had spread," said Amanda Nicholson, Vaughn's ex-wife.
Nicholson said that Vaughn spent about a week at Cartersville Medical Center. She says the infection quickly spread from his abdomen to his upper back. He was eventually transferred to Doctor's Hospital in Augusta.
"It was kind of scary of first because, for some reason it was like every two days, when they would go to check, it was spreading, still. And so finally that was when they sent him to Augusta," said Nicholson.
According to Nicholson, Vaughn has undergone five surgeries as doctors remove nearly two pounds of infected tissue.

"War Conflict Name Change Scenario"
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A Mississippi judge has ordered Eaton Corp. Chief Executive Alexander Cutler to produce a sworn affidavit within seven days explaining why two email strings were withheld from documents the company was supposed to turn over years ago in a tangled trade-secrets case.
Hinds County Circuit Judge Jeff Weill also ordered Cutler to come up with a proposed sanction against Eaton for "its most recent failure to comply" with court orders to produce records.
The Cleveland-based global manufacturer said Friday that it gave the emails to the court April 17 after recently learning they were "inadvertently not included" in records it was supposed to turn over. The email exchanges were between Eaton lawyers and a Mississippi attorney whom Eaton hired in the trades-secrets case. Eaton said it intends to fully comply with Weill's order.
The company that Eaton sued for intellectual-property theft, Frisby Aerospace, says the emails prove that Eaton managers knew that Mississippi attorney Ed Peters, a politically connected go-between, tried to influence the presiding judge in the Eaton-Frisby lawsuit, Bobby DeLaughter.
In one email, Peters wrote to a top Eaton lawyer, "If you can keep mgmt. off your back for just a short time (relatively) I think they will be VERY pleased with you."
DeLaughter later recused himself from the Eaton case when he became embroiled in a lawsuit unrelated to Eaton that involved high-powered Mississippi attorney Dickie Scruggs. DeLaughter was sentenced to 18 months in prison after admitting he lied to FBI agents about conversations he had with Peters in the Scruggs case.
DeLaughter and Peters had ties stretching back to the 1980s, when Peters was district attorney in Hinds County and DeLaughter was an assistant district attorney in the office.
Judge Weill's order, filed late Thursday, is the latest twist in a legal battle that began in 2004 when Eaton sued rival Frisby and five engineers who left Eaton Aerospace in Jackson, Miss., to work for Frisby. Frisby, now called Triumph Actuation Systems, is based outside Winston-Salem, N.C.
Eaton said its former employees absconded with thousands of pages of confidential information on jet hydraulic systems.
The legal fight dragged on for years but took an abrupt turn a few days after Christmas in 2010.
In a sharp setback for Eaton, the judge who followed DeLaughter on the lawsuit threw out Eaton's claim. Some observers figure Eaton stands to collect as much as $1 billion if it prevails in the case, which it has appealed to the Mississippi Supreme Court.
Judge Swann Yerger dismissed the lawsuit against Frisby after deciding there was "clear and convincing" evidence that Eaton had hired Peters to secretly influence DeLaughter, who is best known for his successful prosecution of a Ku Klux Klan member in the 1963 assassination of civil rights leader Medgar Evers.
Eaton, in its statement Friday, said there is no evidence that Peters tried to sway the judge or that Eaton or its employees engaged in or knew about improper conduct.
Eaton also noted that the U.S. attorney's office in Jackson is proceeding with a criminal case against the engineers. Lawyers for the engineers could not be reached Friday.
The Eaton-Frisby fight is unfolding in several courts, including in Hinds County, where Frisby is pursuing a counterclaim.
Weill, the Hinds County circuit judge, ordered Cutler as well as Eaton's top in-house lawyers to submit affidavits explaining why it was only a few weeks ago that Eaton turned over a series of emails from March 20, 2007, and Oct. 16, 2007.
In the March emails, Peters advised Eaton in-house attorney Vic Leo that Judge DeLaughter was "spending every free minute" on a crucial ruling in the lawsuit and that "we are getting priority time," according to a motion Frisby filed last month.
In a followup email the same day, Peters said he was "REALLY pushing to get the ox out of the ditch, but the Jdg IS in trial for the next 2-3 weeks," and "I'm PUSHING."
The email chain was forwarded to another Eaton in-house lawyer, Sharon O'Flaherty, and to Michael Schaalman, an outside lawyer for Eaton from Quarles & Brady in Milwaukee.
The October email string, also about contacts between Peters and DeLaughter, looped in several other Eaton attorneys, including General Counsel Mark McGuire.
Andrew Pollis, at Case Western Reserve University Law School, said the latest volleys between Eaton and Frisby illustrate a problem plaguing litigation nationwide.
"Electronically stored information is a nightmare for the party that is looking at its own files to find. It's a nightmare for the adverse party to make sure that the producing party has in fact produced everything that exists.
"And it becomes a nightmare for the court to figure out what the appropriate redress should be," Pollis said.
In an unusual step, Weill's order requires Cutler and Eaton lawyers to propose sanctions against Eaton that address how to deter "similar conduct by Eaton, especially in view of previous sanctions already issued in this matter."
Judge Yerger had fined Eaton $1.5 million for discovery violations before dismissing the 2004 lawsuit.
Pollis said Eaton is in a difficult spot. If Eaton says there should be no penalties because there was no impropriety, that could backfire if the judge thinks the company is skirting responsibility.
But if Eaton proposes sanctions, it better be prepared to live with them, Pollis said: "It's very difficult to argue that the judge erred in punishing you in the way that you suggest."

"60 Generations,Of the same Problem"Should never happen.
Sinaloa cartel members named kingpinsBy the CNN Wire Staff
updated 1:50 PM EDT, Tue May 8, 2012
STORY HIGHLIGHTS
Four Mexican traffickers were added to the kingpin list
Two of them are sons of drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman
Their father was added to the list in 2001
(CNN) -- The U.S. Treasury Department added four figures in the powerful Sinaloa drug cartel to its kingpin list, including two sons of drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman.
The department's designation freezes any assets he may have under U.S. jurisdiction and prohibits financial and commercial transactions with them.
Guzman, who is considered the most wanted man in Mexico, had two of his sons designated kingpins.
Ivan Archivaldo Guzman Salazar was once arrested by Mexican authorities for money laundering, but he was later released, the Treasury Department said.
Ovidio Guzman Lopez also has a large role in the cartel, the department said.
The pair join their father, who was placed on the list in 2001.
The designation is made through the Office of Foreign Assets Control at the department.
"OFAC will aggressively target those individuals who facilitate Chapo Guzman's drug trafficking operations, including family members," said OFAC Director Adam J. Szubin. "With the Government of Mexico, we are firm in our resolve to dismantle Chapo Guzman's drug trafficking organization."
The two others added to the list are Noel Salgueiro Nevarez and Ovidio Limon Sanchez. Both are in Mexican custody.
Salgueiro is the head of the Sinaloa cartel in the state of Chihuahua, which includes Ciudad Juarez.
Limon was an operative for the cartel in Sinaloa state, the department said.
