Former Coal Executive Don Blankenship Sentenced To 1 year In Prison

What I would like to know is, how does
" ..... conspiring to violate federal mine safety laws — a misdemeanor......... that killed 29 men."
rate a maximum of one year?

And how did he avoid the other charges that could have brought him 30 years.
