PG&E Corp. won't be facing criminal charges in connection to a series of wildfires that hit Northern California's wine country in October 2017, four local district attorneys announced late Tuesday.
PG&E, the state's largest electric utility, filed for bankruptcy protection in late January after getting hit with a flood of lawsuits from devastating wildfires in Northern California in 2017 and 2018. "After an extensive review, each office determined that insufficient evidence exists to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that PG&E acted with a reckless disregard for human life in causing the fires, the standard necessary to sustain criminal charges," the statement said.
