I've mentioned this before, and maybe it won't hurt to mention it
again. Calling another engineer 'corrupt' is not only libellous, it's
a violation of the standards of conduct in most states including
California. Very simply--
(10) A licensee shall not falsely or maliciously injure or attempt to
injure the reputation or business of others.
Unless you have actionable proof (not just opinion) that will stand
up in court, you're in violation of the law and subject to
disciplinary action by the engineering board. And if you do have
actionable proof, you're obligated by those same standards to bring
it up formally in a complaint before the board.
In all candor, I haven't any idea whether you're right or wrong, just
that you might want to give some thought to consequences when you use
inflammatory words like 'corruption.'
