Wonder how this trial compares to cases where someone has been killed due to the driver of a car with knowingly faulty brakes (failed MOT or whatever) not being able to stop in time. Less news coverage, for sure.

There was the case of a very poorly maintained truck killing a few people a couple of years ago, where the mechanic and company owner were all charged with manslaughter. That got at least as much publicity.
