Texas oil firm indicted in massive 2015 oil spill off coast of Santa Barbara, CA

To your point, the company:

reported $43 billion in revenue and $878 million in profit the year before the leak...

Even better:

Since 2006, Plains Pipeline’s rate of incidents per mile of pipe is more than three times the national average, a Times analysis of data from the federal Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration last year showed.

I’m sure getting caught/fined this time will really teach them a lesson.
