Absolutely. To each according to their authority.
RaDonda Vaught made a mistake, and admitted it, repeatedly, in multiple interviews.
But that mistake was only partly because of her free will. Vanderbilt University Medical Center incentivized her to make that choice, for their own profit, and with control over her employment.
RaDonda Vaught goes to prison.
VUMC pays a fine and nobody goes to prison.
I think HN takes a dim view of a company holding someone's contract in their hands, saying "Do something illegal or I tear this up," and then blaming the employee when everything explodes.
They're playing chicken with patients' lives, and passing off the charges to their employees when they lose.
