Company Charged With Manslaughter
Now, we're talking. Corporate responsibility for a tragic event is sorely lacking in many areas, and to see the glue company who's product failed and killed someone is now being charged with involuntary manslaughter is quite refreshing.
Unfortunately, the maximum punishment for such a crime against a corporation is $1,000. I think that if it weren't for the whole "guilty of manslaughter" bit, the glue company would simply write out a check and be done with it. However, guilt of a crime is pretty serious and could lead to drastic side problems for that company.
