A Florida judge found “reasonable evidence” that Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk and other managers knew the automaker’s vehicles had a defective Autopilot system but still allowed the cars to be driven unsafely, according to a ruling.

And that’s exactly why the depraved indifference rule exists.
Are there any famous examples of that being used?
Schlitterbahn waterpark is a fairly recent high-profile example.
The designers of the water coaster and co-owner of the park were charged with murder because they knew the ride was lethally dangerous and kept it running.
In fact, they’d paid off people hurt in other near-death accidents to keep quiet.
Thanks for the example! I’ll definitely check that out.
