If you want any further proof of who actually controls the courts, watch to see if anyone is criminally prosecuted for this clear case of *outright theft and burglary,* let alone the large and easily traceable conspiracy to commit same.
(If there was no court order, taking the things was theft. Entering the house to commit a theft was burglary. It's in the TX Penal Code, you can look it up.)
And yes, I *do* think that the poor schlub who broke into the house at JP Morgan's order should be prosecuted, as should everybody involved with paying him to do so. If you are going to break into a house which is obviously FULLY FURNISHED AND PRESENTLY OCCUPIED, it behooves you to perhaps make a few phone calls before hauling off the entire contents. If for no other reason that a complete lack of human decency and/or rudimentary intelligence, depending on whether you are a Democrat or a Republican, that guy belongs in the slam.

Michael Lewis, actually, is quite successful and well regarded. I'd like to think it's due to his humbleness. If a few people around here caught on, maybe they'd "ride the recession."

re: JPM home invasion
They are very lucky that the homeowner was not home and armed. There isn't a jury in TX that would convict if they were killed.

Given what JPM-C did to Bear Stearns, frankly I'd expect nothing less.
