Just what does one have to do to get charged with "gross breach of trust" or "attempted fraud" in France?

I can only suppose that monitoring position limits is considered a vulgar Anglo-Saxon banking practice and therefore much disdained in La Belle France!

He’s only under investigation...He has not been formally charged...

Quote: “Kerviel was freed on bail after being placed under formal investigation for “breach of trust”, “falsifying and using falsified documents,” and “breaching IT procedures”, said his lawyer Elisabeth Meyer.

Judges rejected a bid to charge Kerviel, accused by the French banking giant of losing 4.9 billion euros (7.15 billion dollars), with the more serious crimes of “gross breach of trust” and “attempted fraud.”

So um, he didn’t steal no candy, produced a forged note from his mommy, and he tried to change his desktop picture.

Now, if after a 6 month investigation he could face formal charges of actual candy theft, forgery of mommy’s name, and trying to change his Home Page...
