…Italy with this little gem!
Italian court convicts 7 of manslaughter for not warning of earthquake
The international scientific community is aghast at the ruling, which holds scientists responsible for giving “inexact, incomplete and contradictory information” about tremors felt before the big 2009 quake.
An Italian court convicted seven scientists and experts on manslaughter charges Monday for failing to adequately warn citizens before an earthquake struck central Italy in 2009, killing more than 300 people.
The court in L’Aquila sentenced the defendants to six years in prison. Each one is a member of the national Great Risks Commission.
In Italy, convictions aren’t definitive until after at least one level of appeals, so it is unlikely that any of the defendants will face jail immediately.
Scientists worldwide decried the trial as ridiculous, contending that science has no reliable way of predicting earthquakes.

Truth, Lies and In Between 
And now watch for a flight of scientists to other parts of Europe…
I couldn’t believe that one.
What sane person would even go there, let alone a judge?
You said they were Italians… 😉
Yeah, I should have known better.
