nning history’s largest Ponzi scheme, he and his wife, Ruth, attempted suicide in their Manhattan penthouse.

Mrs. Madoff said in an interview with The New York Times: “I don’t know whose idea it was, but we were both so saddened by everything that had happened. It was unthinkable to me: hate mail, phone calls, lawyers.”

They were victims, don't you see?

The article states, “I don’t know how I felt about him waking up”. Okay then...

I don’t think there’s any reason to direct vitriol towards this poor, broken woman or her shattered family. Bernard Madoff will die in prison, haunted by his memories. Their family name will be stained for generations. They’ve suffered enough.

We should do the Christian thing, which is to be charitable and forgiving. Life goes on, after all, and in the end, their crimes, though massive in scale, were simply about money. Bernie Madoff isn’t the first person in history to do something terrible because of greed, and he certainly won’t be the last. What is certain though, is that every night he goes to bed surrounded by prison walls with only his own thoughts to keep him company. I’m sure that there isn’t a day that goes by that he doesn’t wish he could take it all back and that his son was still alive.

We should pity him, not hate him.

(But for the record, I’m completely appalled that the surviving son is trying to prostitute his family’s shame for profit through a book.)

The victims who, you better believe, were in, wink-wink-nudge-nudge, on the 10% returns per annum, are getting, I’ve read, 70 cents on the dollar they put in, while Bernie rots in prison. Not bad, huh?

Madoff’s wife is no victim. According to this she may get to keep $82 million of what he stole from his victims.

If this woman was righteous instead of greedy she would have committed suicide and willed the $82 Million that her crooked husband stole to charity. I believe that she and her family were involved with this action. No way could such a scam be kept under wraps within the family.
