deaths on their oil rig? I've heard interviews with fammily members of some of the men who died on the rig. One woman stated that her husband knew of the dangers and made preparations in case something happened to him. He told her things were not right. BP emails, memos and other documents have come to light that show that BP made a series of money saving shortcuts that increased the risks of danger on the rig. In the past five years, BP has been cited for 760 safety violations and has paid out $373 million in fines. In contrast, the maximum violations from other oil companies in the last five years is eight. Also in the last five years, 26 people have died on BP rigs,and 700 have been injured. In my mind, BP is guilty of murder. It appears to me that they put profits first and really didn't give a fig about the well-being of their workers. Someone should go to jail...for a long time.
