The case of Jeffrey A. Lill, a U.S. Postal Service employee injured at a mail-sorting facility in Orlando more than two years ago, is still unresolved.

Last year, in a story published in more than 250 news outlets worldwide, the Florida Center for Investigative Reporting, in partnership with the Investigative Reporting Program at the University of California-Berkeley, reported that two whistleblowers and internal Postal Service emails supported Lill’s claim that he was exposed to toxic chemicals on Feb. 4, 2011 — something Postal Service official have denied.

Following his exposure to the chemicals, which Lill said were leaking from a package from Yemen, Lill moved into his mother’s home in Rochester, N.Y., where he is bedridden. Lill’s doctors say his debilitating symptoms, which include extreme fatigue, tremors, and liver and neurological problems, are consistent with exposure to a neurotoxin...
