PETALUMA, Calif., May 3 (UPI) -- A USDA inspector was having an affair with a plant manager at Rancho Feeding Corporation, a meat processing plant in Petaluma, Calif., where nearly 9 million pounds of beef were recalled earlier this year.
In February, the USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service deemed the meat processed at the plant was not fit for human consumption after finding the plant processed diseased and unhealthy animals.
