Volkswagen Emissions Scandal Just Got Worse
The largest fine in automobile history is not going to be the end of the story for Volkswagen.
Attorneys general for New York, Massachusetts, and Maryland announced Tuesday they are suing the company for fraud, saying that the Volkwagen’s installation of defeat devices to thwart emissions testing was part of a “willful, systemic scheme.”
“Today’s suit and the nine-month investigation that led to it are designed to hold Volkswagen accountable for their actions,” New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said at a press conference Tuesday. “What we found in our investigation was shocking and reveals a cunningly cynical fraud at the heart of this scandal.”
