OXFORD, Miss. - A former Warner Robins engineer has been arrested for making false statements and obstructing justice during a federal criminal investigation into a 2017 military plane crash, the U.S. Attorney's Office said in a statement.
James Michael Fisher, former Lead Propulsion Engineer at Warner Robins Logistics Center, was arrested Tuesday morning after an indictment was issued by a federal grand jury charging him with obstruction of justice and false statements during a criminal investigation.
According to the indictment, Fisher attempted to hide his past engineering decisions that may have been related to why the crash occurred. Specifically, the indictment claims that Fisher purposely concealed key engineering documents from investigators, and lied to investigators about his previous engineering decisions.
The crash of the marine transport aircraft known as "Yanky 72" occurred on July 10, 2017, near Itta Bena, Mississippi, and resulted in the deaths of fifteen Marines and one Navy Corpsman.
Fisher has been charged with two counts of making false statements and two counts of obstruction of justice. If convicted, he faces a maximum of twenty years in prison.
