Also continuing Ilan Kelman's email on examples of legal responsibility for disasters, recent news have come up from the trial of the Chilean's tsunami in 2010 this week (by now in Spanish):
http://www.adnradio.cl/noticias/nacional/caso-tsunami-fiscalia-ofrecio-suspender-proceso-judicial-a-cambio-de-245-millones/20160301/nota/3073635.aspx
Victims' organisations, NGO's, and some politicians have complaint about the announcement, this week, of a 'short-cut' trial (after more than 5 years of investigations), where public officials (ONEMI's former director, among others) initially faced jail.
All the best
