How could one Dev commit to prod without other Devs reviewing the MR? IF you’re not protecting your prod branch that’s a cultural issue. I don’t know where you’ve worked in the past, or where you’re working now, but once it’s N+1 engineers in a code base there needs to be code reviews.
Was there a process in place to prevent the deployment that caused this?
No: blame the higher up
Yes: blame the dev that didn’t follow process
Of course there are other intricacies, like if they did follow a process and perform testing, and this still occurred, but in general…
If they didn’t follow a procedure, it is still a culture/management issue that should follow the distribution of wealth 1:1 in the company.

Oh you sweet summer child…
I would hate to work where you developed the idea a protected main/prod branch is something novel.
