161k is sounding awfully wrist slappy.
Right? A person died. And you’re gonna fine the company what maybe three employees cost for a year?
And considering that they work across 17 states, paying someone to be a security escort in any risky situation is probably more expensive. Employees don't get murdered that often, so might as well just set some money aside and pay the fine when it happens.
Yeah, directors should be getting charged with manslaughter. Their negligence caused a death, they should be getting charged with a crime, not given a bill
Fined?!? We’re going to talk about issuing a fine for a loss of life?!? How much more shit are we going to add to dystopia? We’re well past that threshold.
That's fucking horrible.
Remember when conservatives were all about "corporations are people?" Yeah, when someone's gross negligence results in death of another, they don't usually fine the negligent person. They charge them with mansluaghter.
