This was my question too. The real question isn't whether someone in the company knew. It's whether someone with decision power knew, and who was that person? And also, if people with decision power did not know - then why?

I tend to agree.

And if this can be traced to someone with influence, how was it possible for the company to be structured so that a single point of failure was possible - that speaks to a larger problem and then puts the senior exec on the chopping block too.
