TROY, N.Y. (AP) — More than 20 years of cell cultures and other specimens stored at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute were destroyed when a cleaner switched off power to a lab freezer, according to a lawsuit filed by the school.

RPI is seeking US$1 million from Daigle Cleaning Systems, claiming one of the company’s employees turned off the circuit breaker for the freezer, which must keep specimens at minus 112 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 80 degrees Celsius)

Push the blame to the poor cleaner?

If it was so important then the specimens should be kept under strict lock and key and prohibited access in the first place. If anybody can access the room and switch off the mains then then specific safety was disregarded in the first place.
