According to the prosecution, the liquid sold by the Grennons was chlorine dioxide, used to decontaminate water in industry. When used orally in undiluted form, the drug can be fatal. The local authorities have already made an official announcement, saying that the remedy offered by the Grennons is not certified as medicinal and can be deadly if ingested.

Anyone who bought it from the Grennons is urged not to use it in any way, and his sons (pictured is Jonathan Grennon) helped him with the services. All four now face life in prison.

According to court documents, the Grennons (in the phono – Joseph Grennon) were engaged in the production and bottling of the product in a hangar in the city of Bradenton, south of Tampa. There, during the search, dozens of containers with chemicals, about 2 tons of sodium nitrate and thousands of bottles with a "miracle remedy"were found.

According to preliminary estimates, the Grennons sold more than 28 thousand servings of the" medicine", and it became more and more popular every month: if in the first months of sales their average monthly revenue was about 32 thousand dollars a month, then gradually reached 123 thousand.
