Tragic truth behind Oppenheimer as his 'first victims' were abandoned and suffered 'cancer curse'

Young Lucy Benavidez Gardwood was tucked up in her bed with her siblings over 78 years ago when she was violently awoken by her family's home being violently shaken after J Robert Oppenheimer tested out his creation of the world's first atomic bomb.The then 13-year-old said the blast was so powerful, she thought her house had been struck by a car and her neighbours in the small town of Tularosa in New Mexico believed there had been an earthquake.

A few miles west, farmers working on the fertile fields at 5.29am believed the world was ending as a great flash of light appeared before their eyes.This was the moment 'Oppenheimer's curse' fell upon their community.

It was not until several weeks later that the small village in Otero County would learn the truth about what happened to their home, when the US forces dropped the American theoretical physicist's nuclear bomb on the cities of Nagasaki and Hiroshima in Japan, the Mirror reports.Lucy, who is now 91 years old, recalled the terrifying experience, as she said: “The reality is America dropped it on their own people first, and no one ever gave a s*** about us.

They still don’t. Because we were poor and uneducated, we were seen as disposable.“We were Oppenheimer’s first victims but we still remain last in getting the help we need.
