So, you're going to jail people for following procedures, because the outcome was bad?

Are you also going to jail people for not following procedures, if the outcome turned out to be bad?




You seem to have a problem comprehending what I said. I said "with the level of incompetence being shown by officials". It has nothing about following procedure. It's the ignoring of warning signs and the willful disregard to prepare for windstorms like this. So yes, I want to jail top-level officials who could have done more to prevent this (government as well as those in charge of Maui Electric). Not the low-level workerbee who just setup a barricade.
