Cell phone companies have known for decades that radio frequencies emitted from cell phones cause certain types of brain cancer and tumors, according to Hunter Lundy, a trial lawyer widely respected for his work suing cell phone corporations for harming people’s health.
In an interview with Children’s Health Defense Chairman Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., on the “RFK Jr The Defender Podcast,” Kennedy and Lundy discussed their joint lawsuit against Motorola, AT&T and other telecommunications companies.
The suit alleges the companies are responsible for the glioblastoma cancer — a fast-growing and aggressive brain tumor — that caused the death of Frank Aaron Walker. Walker, a pastor, teacher and musician from Louisiana, died from the disease at age 49 after using cell phones for more than two decades.
Numerous peer-reviewed scientific studies show cell phones cause cancer, said Kennedy. The World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer found radiofrequency radiation from cell phones is linked to an increased risk for head and brain tumors.
In June 2014, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a warning on its website about the potential negative health risks cell phones pose to children. But within two weeks, the agency removed the warning due to pressure from cell phone companies, said Lundy.
“There’s an unhealthy relationship between industry and government agencies,” Lundy said. To have “the CDC alter its website at the pressure of industry is sad because we’ve seen so much inconsistency.”
Lundy said:
“The audience needs to know that an individual’s skull and brain does not reach its full formation until they’re in their early 20s. Children are getting much greater exposure than adults are when they’re putting cell phones up next to their brain. It’s going deeper. It’s causing worse consequences, and so, they need to be warned.”

I also got a brain tumor ad Im looking for a trustworthy attorney to help me with my workers comp case in California.
I was underpaid for 3 years, never given any brakes and forced to work 60-100+ hours per week night shifts.
I believe the lack of rest and sleep plus the radiation from using the cell phone entire night to stay awake caused my tumor.
Is there a lawsuit for glioblastoma patients against cell phone companies?
My wife passed away in January 2021 from a Glioblastoma unmethalated stage IV. She was 59 when diagnosed. It was on her right temporal lobe. She lasted 18 months. Two surgeries, chemo, radiation, two trial drugs. She held her phone on her right side a lot.
Had ear buds in ears for about 6 hours on community call. Had ringing in ears continuous for about 3 years.
