It’s a fine line, to be sure, but that’s what Frank Lautenberg is trying to ascertain and maybe recoup some losses in the process. The octogenarian senator’s family foundation has sued Peter Madoff, brother of Bernie, and chief compliance officer at Madoff Securities, a job which either entailed aiding and abetting the elder Mades in ripping off Kevin Bacon et al, or building elaborate towers out of sugar cubes for the last number of years. Here’s the complaint, via Dealbook. Obviously you’ll all agree that the best of the 17 “obvious material red flags evidencing the BMIS giant Ponzi scheme and repeated alerts of fraudulent activity that were recklessly ignored and/or not disclosed and/or consciously disregarded by Peter Madoff” is the one about no one being allowed on the office’s 17th floor, known as “THE CAGE.”

    Erin’s in her second outfit today. Maybe the tweed jacket was irritating her new after market parts.

    Good to see things about this scumbag Peter Madoff – in his role as CCO he lied repeatedly to the SEC and NASD – without Peter Madoff’s lies, this scam would have have died a long, long time ago.

    Lets not forget about that whore Ruth who sat next to Bernie the whole time he was bilking his buddies out of billions. She should have to work off the debt…

    So how come you can not line these people up and shoot them? If you intentionally stole billions from people over years and years don’t you think they deserve to be executed?
    The biggest bank heists don’t go this far.
