California's biggest utility company Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) pleaded guilty Tuesday to involuntary manslaughter for the deaths of 84 people in the 2018 Camp Fire.

The company will be fined millions of dollars, but no executives or employees are expected to face any prison time. The Camp Fire resulted in some $16.5 billions of dollars in property damage and left PG&E defamed and bankrupt.

We take a closer look at the guilty plea, what’s next and how one former Paradise resident is adjusting. 

Today's Guests:

  • Stanford Criminal Justice Center co-director Robert Weisberg discusses the punishment handed down to PG&E and what’s next for the company 
  • Former substitute teacher and Air Force veteran Kasey Gibbs talks about his experience with the 2018 Camp Fire and how it has since impact his life
