It's interesting...
The approach generally is to go after the company (thereby punishing the shareholders). Unfortunately, shareholders in aggregate don't seem to have the will or ability to compel or enforce good behaviour (especially at the expense of profits). Shareholders' limited liability probably only exacerbates the problem!
Going after actual decision makers would obviously be a much better deterrent for this sort of thing IMO. If we really wanted to get tough, we wouldn't even name the corporation in court... Shareholders would throw the accused under the bus and leave them to defend themselves! Unfortunately, there's not much money in going that route...
