The more important concessions, however, were 1) Liggett's admission that the industry had consciously marketed tobacco to minors (which will increase congressional support for stiff regulation of the industry) and 2) its release--temporarily blocked by a North Carolina court--of documents from strategy meetings among lawyers for the five biggest tobacco companies, which industry critics believe will prove a conspiracy of deceit.

Does it follow that "Liggett admitted that tobacco had purposely been marketed to minors."?
yes
