Good question!
Weekend reading from Matt Taibbi in Rolling Stone here on why so few prosecutions have been brought by the Obama administration against 'main stream' Wall Street. This has left over-the-top ponzi crook Bernie Madoff as the only high-profile financial villain serving time in the pokey.
Speaking of Madoff, fellow ponzi-schemer 'Sir' Allen Stanford was recently moved into Madoff's digs at Butner prison. Will the two get a chance to compare notes?
Docudrama filmmakers: there may be a fun movie here. I'm imagining a screenplay set in part at Butner, perhaps featuring Stanford and Madoff as cellmates, with flashbacks to their pre-arrest glory days ala the stylized cocaine caper, Blow.
