One will suffice.
Insider trading is ILLEGAL.
Shes probably on her way to being convicted of that ILLEGAL activity.
But dont tell me
it was a victimless crime
..right? Or so your cavalier attitude about it would suggest.
Those who lost their lifes savings at ENRON, those who lost money invested in her company, and those who follow, adhere to, and respect the laws of our nation would tend to disagree.

I'm just asking when is it ok to sell? If this is such a heinous crime than NOBODY who works for a company nor their friends or family should be allowed to own stock in that company. Nobdody. But that really wouldn't work in our kind of economy would it? So for now we do our best. I'm telling you it goes on everyday. She got caught. I'm not saying she shouldn't be punished. (jail time is absurd), but she is not a monster for doing it because ANYBODY in her position would have done it.
