Selective prosecution for the same offense is hypocrisy, but it is also unjust.

The government seems to be punishment-proof.

That’s why God sent Donald Trump to punish it. The court follows the election returns, so goes the adage.

They going to go after those responsible and fine them/imprison them?

Or

Are the taxpayers going to pay the "fine" ?

If the one got prison, then the other should, too.

It will be a trifling investment to pay for this clean up out of the public coffers if it also throws the whole mess before the public which will cry “Crucify!”

Or else, suddenly the USSC will say whoa, only civil liability ought to apply here and we have imposed cruel and unusual punishment. A shielding precedent for the private sphere.

not talking about the cleanup.

Just wondering if the court will find the epa liable, fine them, and then get the fine out of tax dollars rather than the culprits themselves who are responsible.

That’s what happens when the EPA focuses on seltzer bubbles and every other little thing in the universe instead of clean air and water.

This will be decided under the Trump justice department, so it will be handled differently.

If both were accidental and not gross incompence of some sort, then I’d prefer the one imprisoned be exonerated and compensated in some way.

The EPA has classified plowed farm fields as mini mountain ranges and rain water filled ruts on dirt roads as wet lands to impose EPA regulations on them
EPA has monumentally overreached in epic fashion and needs to slapped down or eliminated.

It could point out the circular nature of doing that, and simply require EPA to clean it up satisfactorily “at its own expense.”

The nanny will have been nannied, at least.

Their drive to skew reality by redefinition of words makes them very dangerous. They should be shut down

It would be a start.

I would favor govt employees held to same standards as private, and any fines or punishments for wrongdoing to come out of their own hide and holdings.

Oh, and dismember the epa.

To return this to the realm of civil remedies, unless the equivalent of malice aforethought were to be shown, would be in the spirit of the constitution we used to know.
