This is false. The executives were not harmed. Even the article you posted states that.

  There’s a table of prosecutions with links like this: https://web.archive.org/web/20091125173132/http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/2009/11/24/2009-11-24_china_executes_zhang_yujun_geng_jinping_for_roles_in_deadly_tainted_milk_powder_.html https://web.archive.org/web/20091125173132/http://www.nydail... Are you saying that’s fake?

    No, he's saying that the people who were executed were not company executives.

      Ah, thanks for the clarification. I missed that.

  You’re correct and I’m mistaken. The execs were only jailed for 5-15 years, Sanlu's general manager received a life sentence, and the farmer and salesperson who were directly involved with the knowing adulteration of the product were executed. I’ll update my top comment accordingly. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2009/nov/24/china-executes-milk-scandal-pair https://www.theguardian.com/world/2009/nov/24/china-executes...
