There are lots of failure mechanisms by which the mains (120V) can be faulted onto to a low voltage circuit. Generally a GFI will provide adequate protection. Based on other comments on this thread, it does sound like there was some corner cutting going on.

For the last 30 years yes! I don’t know the particulars in this case
