An Atlanta businessman was sentenced Wednesday for abandoning more than three tons of human and medical waste at a site in DeKalb County.
Christopher Lee, who operated Biotech Corporation, was sentenced to 10 years probation and ordered to pay $14,124 in restitution, including the costs of properly disposing the biowaste. DeKalb Superior Court Judge Michael Hancock also forbade Lee from working in the waste management business during the term of his probation.
In 2003, Thermo King reported to authorities that Lee had abandoned a trailer at its storage facility, the state Attorney General’s Office said. The trailer was found to contain 292 containers of amputed limbs and organs, chemotherapy waste and soiled dressings and tubes. Lee had collected the 6,943 pounds of medical waste at various locations but failed to deliver it to an appropriate disposal facility.
