Quote of the Day by scarab9

"non-case" eh?

She stole $200,000+ from the people who bought her stock she knew was going to take a dive the next day.

Then she lied to cover her tracks.

Hardly a "non-case".

Part of me suspects that her crime was, to paraphrase the movie "Network", disrupting the primal forces of nature. And for that she must atone. Somehow, effectively prosecuting someone for proclaiming their innocence seems to me to be an abuse of prosecutorial discretion.

The biggest offense IMHO is the lies she spread when trying to prop up the stock of her company. She hyped MSO by saying there was nothing to the charges. MSO was manipulated by those statements. A definite no-no for any CEO.
