(Reuters) - Halliburton Co. (click here) has agreed to plead guilty to destroying evidence related to the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill, the U.S. Department of Justice said on Thursday.

The government said Halliburton's guilty plea is the third by a company over the spill and requires the world's second-largest oilfield services company to pay a maximum $200,000 statutory fine....

I have to wonder if it runs in the family? The paper shredding, I mean. 

Did any of these companies believe they were not guilty? What took so long? Lawyering? Hoping to avoid the entire part called RESPONSIBILITY. Halliburton is good at that. They were provided for in Iraq. Halliburton could do no wrong in Iraq. I suppose they thought they might be given the gift of Cheney 'favorite child' status again.
