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.
