Looks like the Volkswagen engineer responsible for designing the cheat device used in 11 million vehicles is facing up to three years in prison for his actions. This is big news people, because it is not often that an exec responsible for environmental crimes is held accountable. In truth, you would be embarrassed by how little (if ever) it happens--even when death is involved.

Side note- There has got to be an easier way to search individual blogs. My first post on VW was published by @knozaki2015 who, at the time of this writing, has 8,577 posts. So that took some time to find :)
