Comment on VW solid-state battery retains 95% capacity over 1,000 charge cycles in lab testing
Garbanzo@lemmy.world 8 months agoYeah, I actually went and looked it up and found that many of the executives responsible resigned or got fired, and some went to prison, but let’s not let that interrupt our circle jerk.

So some of them broke the law and just resigned or were fired, only a few were jailed?

Here’s the summary for the wikipedia article you mentioned in your comment:
Oliver Schmidt (born January 9, 1969) is a German engineer, former senior executive for Volkswagen in Germany and the United States as well as a convicted felon. In December 2017, Schmidt was sentenced to 84 months (7 years) in federal prison for his role in the Volkswagen emissions scandal. He was the second German national, after James Robert Liang, to be convicted and sees himself as pawn sacrifice in the entire case.^article^ ^|^ ^about^
