The former CEO of Massey Energy, Don Blankenship, is currently on trial for conspiracy to violate mandatory mine safety and health standards, making false statements to the SEC, and securities fraud. Blankenship is being held personally responsible for aspects of the Upper Big Branch disaster of 2010 and the ensuing cover-up. Mother Jones reporter Tim Murphy talks about Blankenship's history with Massey, the current legal proceedings, and whether this prosecution is a harbinger for the demise of the coal industry in general.
