Todays court action closes a difficult chapter in Blue Bells history, company officials said in a statement on Thursday. Blue Bells former president, Paul Kruse, has previously been charged with seven felony counts for his alleged efforts to conceal the contamination from customers. It also found that insanitary water was dripping into the product mix, according to the DOJs statement on Thursday. We are a new, different and better Blue Bell. Blue Bell, based in Brenham, Texas, pleaded guilty in May to two misdemeanor counts of distributing adulterated ice cream products.
