When an overworked air traffic controller in Germany gave a plane an instruction that happened to be the opposite of TCAS automatic collision avoidance system, and one pilot followed TCAS to avoid a collision and one followed the controller, the planes crashed and everybody died. A family member of one of the passengers looked up, hunted down, and murdered in cold blood the air traffic controller.
You left out - was a foreigner, managed to escape, faced zero consequences at home (AFAIK).
> an overworked air traffic controller in Germany
Actually the air traffic controller in question was Swiss not German.
