>>White collar crime gets basically no punishment, and looking at career of those people they usually end up falling upwards

I mean the article literally says the engineer could have been sent to prison for 75 years for his role in the fraud(effectively a lifetime sentence).

engineer? sure.

execs and upper management who instigate such incidents? almost no real punishment ever happens.

Sam Friedman, the engineer's boss and the CEO was sentenced to 25 years in federal prison.

and how many more fall upwards?

I have no idea, I'm just saying it's a weird comment to make on an article where both the engineer behind the fraud _and_ the management faced consequences of their actions.
