The perp walk, Russian style….


Seems like doing bad things in Russia is different from doing bad things in America.


Last Monday four people died at a Russian airport when a private plane crashed on takeoff into an errant snowplow whose driver was drinking before his shift.

Since then, Moscow police have arrested the Vnukovo International Airport’s service engineer, a trainee air traffic controller and the snowplow driver.

The Director General of the airport and his deputy turned in their resignations, which were promptly accepted.

The airport shift director and the head of the maintenance division have been suspended from their duties.

In Russia, it seems, when something goes badly wrong, if you did it, or if you’re in charge of making sure stuff like that doesn’t happen, or if you sit at the big desk where the buck stops, you take the perp walk….

There are a lot of folks in big companies in America who are due for a perp walk.
