Jack,
If what you say is true, then BP appears to be guilty of Gross Negligence, willful and wanton disregard.
They may well be a walking dead corporation at this very moment. Gross Negligence is a back breaker for a corporation, it opens the flood gates under US tort law.
Our local papers might be walking down the primrose path, reporting all of this other stuff.
