A corporation can be held LIABLE for the acts of its principals and management but not in the criminal sense as is normally thought of. You cannot jail a corporation.
To recover individual damages from a corporation it would be necessary to file a civil suit against it.
However, if the officers of the corporation, and members of the directors or management are found to have operated in a criminal fashon and with criminal intent, THEY, as individuals, can be criminally charged and imprisoned and or fined. There is an applicable Federal statute - the RICO Act (Racketeering Influenced Corrupt Organizations) that might be applicable if the evidence exists.
