It was a pathetic over reach of the police to put handcuffs on these guys. A simple phone call to their houses and they would have come in, but no the govt. needed to have a photo op of a 70 year old man in a business suit being led away in handcuffs. This is a classic abuse of police authority.

Not for me, I would have liked to have seen these guys beheaded. Tried to get Adelphia to install a cable modem. They made 4 appointments where they never came and then lied to their dispatcher that I wasn't home, even though I was. When the moron finally showed up he couldn't get the set up to work, and then left.

That didn't stop them from billing me $35.00 bucks a month for non working cable modem service.

I couldn't get them to come back and take it out, so I took it out myself and returned it to the local office, They billed me $35.00 bucks for another 3 months and then sent me a bill for $275 for the cheap cable modem card that I had returned to their office 3 months earlier.

Luckily I had kept the receipt indicating I had returned it, and was able to get the morons to leave me alone. I knew at that point that a huge scam was going on.

They also refuse to put FOX NEWS on their cable system.

1000 years behind bars sounds like a bargain to me.

Cry me a river for the Rigases (Rigi?). If the gov really wants to deter corporate fraud like this there's a real simple way...get rid of white collar prisons. Send the Rigasas to Attica. That will put the fear of God into corporate execs.
