Why is he supposed to be punished personally tho? The matter is with the company, the company should be punished.


Because I think CEOs should be held accountable for their companies not complying with laws.


you are the CEO of ACME company, one of your employee broke a law but in the name of your ACME company, you are going to jail.

very shortcoming rhetoric


You're conveniently leaving out the the part where the CEO is not complying with the court ruling before being sent to jail. Employees, companies and CEOs making mistakes is not the problem, not complying with the court ruling is, that's what tends to get people in jail.
