I think I have a natural aversion for these kind of manslaughter charges - much like the corporate manslaughter charges. (not sure if this is only in the UK, so briefly its when the heads of a company can be prosecuted for manslaughter even if they were not involved in the incident. eg. after a rail crash, the head of the company gets charged because he is held responsible for safety failures 'on the ground') [ 03-18-2005, 06:56 AM: Message edited by: shamrock_uk ] |

They need to prove first that he sold the substance with knowledge it would be made into mustard gas. The substance used can be used for quite a few other things. Else I don't see how one can blame this guy legally.

The guy knew pretty damn well with what sort of regime he was dealing with. A typical example of being blinded by money, a common human flaw. He's guilty in a way, i have no sympathy for businessmen like that, fry his ass for all i care.

Lol johnny, yeah it does seem like he knew exactly what he was doing so I don't have much sympathy.
How about corporate manslaughter generally? |
