Bridgestone/Firestone Inc. collected data from 1997 to 1999 indicating 
possible safety problems with the same tire models that were recalled last 
month 

Masatoshi Ono, chief executive of Bridgestone/Firestone, testified before the 
Senate Appropriations transportation subcommittee and apologized for the 
fatal accidents. He also pledged to bring in an outside independent 
investigator to try to find out what caused tread separation problems on some 
tires. 

      "I come before you to apologize to you, the American people and 
especially to the families who have lost loved ones in these terrible 
rollover accidents,'' Ono said. 

They knew there was a problem....... They ignored the problem.........   
People died.......

Isn't that manslaughter by indifference?
