A report on the aftermath of the Anacortes oil refinery explosion and ongoing efforts to hold the company accountable.
Just after midnight on April 2, 2010, a massive fireball lit up the sky over Anacortes, Washington.
A heat exchanger at a local oil refinery had ruptured, causing highly flammable gases to ignite.
Seven workers were inside the refinery's unit when it exploded. Three of them died instantly; the other four died later from their injuries.
What happened that night and the months and years since has largely been out of the public eye.
