My problem with it is that he left family's homeless. He still has a bed to sleep in. You want to set a precedence, have him executed and you will see that crime rate drop.he got the maximum. the judge made an example out of him. plus it set precedence for the other current financial scandals that are in court right now.
hopefully it will steer some of these guys away from this stuff. in just most other countries, he would have been executed.
this is sort of a good thing though. now investors will be a lot more cautious with investing. too many people had all their eggs in one basket.

Hey I am not saying the people he took on this ride were smart. Alls I am saying is he knew what he was doing was wrong form the start. Now we have another worthless asshole sitting in a federal prison that our tax money will be paying for his clothes, food, etc... Atleast put is ass in a state pen. so he can take it up the butt. Let him see how it feels to be taken on a ride.Call me an asshole but, people who lost their homes/etc over this guy, sadly, honestly deserve it for being stupid.
So, I once again rest my case.... people are stupid.
- if you lost your house over your stock investments, regardless if they were legit or not, you couldn't afford to be in the market in the first place and simply don't have a bit of financial sense. You ONLY bet the house when you're in vegas. (that's a joke)
- How do you not keep track of your investments, especially if they are on that big of a scale? I have a measly (compared to the scammed people) $13k in the market and I ALWAYS have yahoo finance open in a tab and constantly browse it and check whats going on while i'm online, especially between 930 and 4. If I had 100's of thousands, or even millions like some who got owned here, I would be even MORE up on what's going on.
- There is NO WAY with the amout of people involved in this and the $ figures used X (times) the massive amounts of stocks that he was able to pay dividends on time or at the correct dollar figure, or maintain track of splits, reverse splits, and everything else. Within 3 months, you should have known you got taken. He's been doing this for HOW many years?
Good. I hope he gets ass raped in jail, but for some reason I have a feeling that Clayton is right. He'll get out....
