An owner of trucking companies in California was sentenced to 10 years in prison for ordering the illegal repair of a tanker that resulted in an explosion and the death of one of his employees.
Carl Bradley Johansson, 64, of Newport Beach, was sentenced for conspiring to make illegal repairs on cargo tanks and one count of welding without required certifications. He was also sentenced for tax evasion and fraudulently obtaining approximately $954,417 in COVID-19-relief money while free on bond in the tanker explosion case. Johansson also was ordered to pay nearly $1.3 million in restitution to two banks and the IRS.
Johansson was the owner of Corona, Calif.-based National Distribution Services and Wholesale Distribution Inc. A worker who was a welder was killed and another seriously injured after a cargo tanker exploded.
According to the criminal complaint, National was not a cargo tank shop or repair facility registered with the U.S. Department of Transportation. Johansson was the owner of National and Wholesale, where he supervised Enrique Garcia, the shop manager at both companies. Garcia ordered at least two employees he supervised to conduct welding repairs that would eventually cause the explosion.
After the May 2014 fatal explosion, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration issued National an emergency out-of-service order. Approximately 42 tankers were prohibited from operating.
National unsuccessfully challenged the out-of-service order. It continued to operate some of the 42 banned tankers by creating a chameleon carrier called Wholesale Distribution. The reincarnated carrier had most of the same management and employees as National.
This and other shell companies also were used to avoid paying income taxes, court documents stated.
Johansson was indicted on charges related to the incident in April 2018.
In 1993, Johansson owned a company called Atlas Carrier. In a similar incident, an Atlas welder was killed while working inside a cargo tanker. Johansson and an Atlas manager were indicted on charges in June 1998. Johansson pleaded guilty to three of five counts. He was sentenced to 15 months imprisonment and two years of supervised release. Later, Johansson started a company called Systems Logistics.
In 2012, National was involved in a separate tanker explosion caused by a welder doing illegal repairs. The explosion blew the dome lid on top of the tank into ceiling, causing a hole in the roof

Как вы могли заметить, мягкие приговоры за смерть и увечья по вине бизнесменов резко контрастируют с посадками за украденные кросовки. "Это же жобагивасы!". С ТРЕТЬЕГО ТРУПА дали десятку и то, в основном за неуплату налогов и мошенничество с государственными деньгами. Бабы новых нарожают.
