One CSI toy has been deemed hazardous.

As CSI Files previously reported, the CSI Fingerprint Examination Kit tested positive for asbestos in tests run by the Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization (ADAO). According to Voices, the state of Connecticut has issued an official recall of the toy and ordered that it be removed from shelves. "If your child has this toy or if it's been purchased for holiday gift giving, please bring it back to the retailer immediately and request a refund or store credit," said Jerry Farrell Jr, Consumer Protection Commissioner.

"Lab results indicate that the composition and crystalline structure of the fibers is most consistent with tremolite, a form of asbestos and a toxic hazardous substance," Farrell explained. "Given the potential health hazards associated with any asbestos contact, we are removing the item from sale immediately, and are asking consumers to take swift measures to make sure their children aren't exposed to the product. There is no 'safe' level of asbestos."

"With the success of crime shows like CSI, it's no surprise that kids want to get in on the excitement by pretending to be crime scene investigators, but our own investigation of the CSI Fingerprint Examination Kit identified a real-life culprit that must be promptly eliminated," Farrell said. New York has also tested the product for asbestos. All of the relevant information that was gathered will be sent to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, which may decide to issue a national recall.

The original article is from Voices.

Why can't the CSIs get dates?

	All work and no play makes Greg a blue boy.
	It probably has something to do with the fact that every time Horatio Caine has sex with a woman, she dies.
	Shower sex loses its allure when there's lemons involved.
	These people collect body fluids for a living. Then again, if David the coroner can get laid...
	They can get dates, I bet. We just don't see it.
	Three words: Hank the Skank.
