1) how can the DA, know how it was rigged when it fell to the ground? are they speculating, if so, then this is tossed!
2) worn? how can you indite corporation for an error that the operators and riggers are trained to do? they should have known how things were put together on site, maybe one or all of those rigging had perished on site. then you will never know exactly how it happened. again, speculating.
3) so what are they going to do? afterall, they were fined already by OSHA. this cause the city to finally wake up and see that in reality, they caused the error – issued a permit when it was not zoned for that high of a bldg. sounds like we need to rethink, who is actually at-fault? *** lets see why we did they inspectors resign?!?!?!?! um..um…

“…and his company, Rapetti Rigging Services Inc., were indicted…”
How is that possible?

Employers beware. You are accountable.
Criminal negligence “pierces the corporate veil” making officers and management susceptible to prosecution.
