Child dies at Schlitterbahn in KCK

This is horrifying. Supposed to be a press conference soon with more details. Rumors seem to indicate it happened on the Verrukt, the world's tallest waterslide.

And that is all that needs to be said.

So does anyone know how punishments work for felonies committed by a corporation? Seems weird that, in theory, Schlitterbahn could be guilty of killing someone but no one working for them would serve time.

Right, but he's not "Schlitterbahn." In theory, he could be found not guilty, they could be found guilty, and no one goes to jail (unless I'm misunderstanding how this works).

I hope this gets so damned public that the company gets rocketed out of town.

Criminal charges cannot be applied to a company; only a person within the company. You can sue the company civilly for gross negligence and losses though.

Not to bring politics into this but I have a question.....Supreme Court ruled that corporations are people in the Citizens United case and can give as much as they want to PAC's.

My question for you lawyer types.... Since the SCOTUS ruled corporations are people in the Citizens United case, has anyone tried to sue them as people? Prosecutors try to charge them as people?

People have been doing this since modern corporations came into existence here.

Yep. What people don't understand is that corporate personhood was in place so you could sue a corporation in whole instead of individuals because the latter is a whole lot harder than the former.

So much fault everywhere in this whole damn mess. How did Schlitterbahn get a building permit from Wyndotte Co. to build this thing. Certainly it had to have a engineer seal the plans same for an architect. Was it all in house? A structure of that height probably needed a rezoning because of the impact of height around a suburban neighborhood. Who the hell inspected this thing and signed off on it?

I know when this German company was looking at building this park in the metro everyone was bidding for it both sides the State Line. I wonder if Wyndotte Co. was chosen by Schiliterbahn because in the quest to grow that area they were lax on what was going to be built there. I dont see how this company survives in this area what parents could trust them for safety.
