Who will be accountable?

Link to the final accident report below;

http://www.aic.gov.pg/pdf/P2-MCJ%20A...l%20Report.pdf

- Primary root cause of the accident has been identified as "pilot error".
- Some of the causal factors identified in the report were;
• Nil use of the QRH while several emergencies were taking place
• Nil use of emergency procedures
• Operators training system had been ineffective for an incident or occurrence of this type

Seems Toomey ran away just in time, so with whom will the corporate 'accountability' now lay with? The current CEO? The MD? Who pays the price for the 28 charred corpses? APNG from my recollection have killed around 90 people in total over the years. Will management yet again hide behind the lawyers and politicians and remain protected and escape accountability?
