Crandall record's mixed

Glad to see someone in the press do a little home work.
As a lay person, I wounder if they had left enough coal in place to support the roof? Or if there is unknown "weak area" in the supporting walls where the coal was not as strong relative to other areas?
It is my understanding that coal is not very strong when compressed.
Also, why was that company paying more in fines than the other companies?
