If I were to link a bunch of drug busts, would it make drug markets any smaller?
Like I said, they're the most unreliable service, but you really don't have to be that smart to use one responsibly. It's not like going on Craigslist looking for a guy who thinks he's hidden himself by using incognito mode.
"rentahitman.com" lol might as well set up a stand called "we sell meth here mister police man". I hope you do realise the impossibility of me proving just how many successful hit jobs there have been which no-one was ever caught?
No, see they can all talk about this particular person being a problem, in the board room. Without talking about anything criminal, or even thinking about anything criminal towards him.
But later in the night, a few of those execs are getting drunk in a fancy suite, doing blow. They know what they've done vis-a-vis the airline jenga. There's even evidence against them. They would be stressed. Substance abuse is very common in the business world, as are dark triad personality traits and the occasional psychotic behaviour. (CEO psychopathy prevalence is something fierce compared to the average.)
If there's enough plausible deniability and shared responsibility, those people rarely do. Even when it's very clear death was indirectly caused by some of the decision of the leaders, they rarely get into trouble.
Ofc conspiracy to murder is a bit different than cooking the books for instance, but when we're talking about airline safety, they're not too dissimilar
