On Tuesday afternoon, a federal jury found PG&E guilty of six of 12 criminal charges related to the 2010 San Bruno pipeline explosion that killed eight people and destroyed 38 homes. The company was fined $3 million - a steep drop from the $562 million penalty that prosecutors could have sought. Among the charges, the company was found guilty of obstructing a National Transportation Safety Board investigation.
