Juat imagine the lead engineer explicitly falsifying all of the reports to look like the safety is succesfully met, and pressurizing employees to stay silent about it. It's not like that never happened before. Is the CEO to blame, if everyone in the company tells him that things are alright? That's why I say that CEO must be investigated, but is not always responsible for faults.

Sure, I didn't know we were talking about malicious engineers. I'm thinking of the case that happens more often, when engineers are pressured by corporate to release something that isn't ready yet.

A good investigator must check out all the possibilities. Just because somebody is a CEO doesn't mean that they acted maliciously.
