His bio mentions some sort of criminal charge but somehow forgets the 29 dead miners, weird!

quote:

Since the initial development of this website, I was indicted by now former US Attorney Booth Goodwin in the southern district of West Virginia and charged with conspiring to willfully violate mine safety laws, falsifying Security and Exchange Commission filings and issuing a false press release. The charges carried a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison.

After a trial that lasted 27 days, the jury then deliberated for two weeks before reaching a verdict. I was found not guilty of all felonies, and guilty of a misdemeanor charge of conspiracy with no intent to defraud the United States.

The trial Judge Irene Berger sentenced me to the full maximum: one year in prison, a $250,000 fine, and one-year probation.

I served my sentence at Taft Federal Correctional Institution in California.

quote:

Blankenship has been accused of withholding knowledge of pollution. According to accusations made in Rolling Stone, groundwater pollution from coal slurry injection by Massey Energy was contaminating wells around Blankenship's home. Blankenship had a water line built to his home from a nearby town. According to the accusation Blankenship did not offer to provide uncontaminated water to any of his neighbors, and failed to inform them of any problem.

Shouldn't be, but West Virginia is fulla the most cucked people in the US.

If my brother had died down in that mine I'd have done some extremely stupid things that would've ended with me dead or in jail.

This is an extremely weird metaphor that if read literally implies you have a sexual or romantic relationship with your brother.
