    The 16 year old was operating the trencher? Why? Operators make big money here for mostly any vehicle and have to have their CDL. Kinda does sound like neglect.

      It should be criminal, as in the leadership at the company going to jail, and the school and Dept of Labor and Industry being punished for neglect by continuing to work the with company after the injury.
