A SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket lifts off from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida on April 11.
while he worked at PMI Industries LLC, a Rochester firm that specialized in “high-tolerance machining for flight-critical aerospace parts,” according to a complaint filed by the U.S. attorney’s office in the Western District of New York.If convicted, Smalley could face a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine, prosecutors said.
In January 2018, an internal audit directed by SpaceX and conducted by a subcontractor specializing in quality assurance, found signatures supposedly from one of the subcontractor’s inspectors on “multiple” source-inspection reports and testing certifications from PMI Industries, according to the complaint.
The complaint said there were at least 31 cases in which Smalley sent falsified reports to SpaceX and shipped"uninspected or nonconforming parts" to the company. Smalley told a PMI executive looking into the matter that he falsified the reports because he “wanted to ship more product,” according to the complaint.

Inside the Effort to Diversify Middle School in New YorkA new admissions lottery in Brooklyn delights some parents but has others scrambling to figure out where to enroll their children for middle school. The good schools will go to shit. The bad schools will remain shit. Well done. Here in Rochester the segregated CSD is surrounded by all-white suburbs with some of the best, ritziest schools in the US. Can’t imagine how outraged the fancy parents in Pittsford would be if we tried to integrate the schools (there’s no honest nonracist reason for opposition) People mean well, but this never works. Affirmation action brought minority students to my college. They sat together during meals, formed their own Greek organizations, etc.. So what's the point
