Not as yet but I have read it before and if you will allow time for me to goto work I will have a google when I get back.

So are those who drive cars (pollution adding to problems such as athsma which can be fatal), and those who sell alcohol and don't warn you that excess consumption can lead to alcohol poisoning, liver failure and ultimately death too - want to brand them all as accesories to murder too?
If someone parks thier car in the pub then yes they are. About alcohol, some brands do inform you of these very things in a similar fashion to how tobacco companies now have to, also I would like to point out that as someone said earlier in this thread alcohol can actually be good for you in the correct dose, its alcohol abuse that can lead to Liver failure or death, abuse of butter can also lead to death but that doesnt make butter a killer, smoking is fatal over a period of time (depending on the dose and the individual) so it is a very different matter alltogether and I'd come up with a better arguement if I was you.
