It is far, far easier (and perfectly safe!) to get there by selling a popular product that poisons millions of people.

All the lead paint and tobacco company executives retired to their yachts, scot free. The fats hydrogenation people responsible for millions of heart failures are walking around loose to this day. Nobody currently responsible for slow, painful deaths via liver damage from sugar poisoning, in the hundreds of thousands each year, is looking over his shoulder.

The fossil fuel company executives are still walking free, too. As is Ted Cruz (who I have no factual reason to believe is the Zodiac Killer).
