Apparently Judge Denny Chin was most sickened by a letter from an investor who wrote that after her husband died Bernie put his arms around her and said “your money’s safe with me.” Under/over on how long before CNBC labels the verdict a green shoot?

I win!!!
I call dibs on Ruthie!
dont do the crime if you cant do the time!!
Boom goes the dynamite!
Burn in hell, a-hole.
What’s got 2 thumbs and called 150 years? Oh yeah, this guy!!!
Never separate a Jew and his money,
Next prediction- prison beatdown/death in 6mos. Probably by Ebbers
Pliers and a blow torch mofo.
Thank God he got the 150 years. I thought he was going to get off with only 50.
@8:
That’s racist, xenophobic and insulting. And I’m not even a dirty jew!
All kidding aside, when do the real ponzi’s get justice? You know, like the Federal Reserve?

think Ira S. will get paid anything for his troubles?
@14 so?

Kosher
so i came in on the under…
What time is Ruthie’s press conference and her announcement that she’s suing for divorce?
Which of our Dealbreaker luminaries is going to step up and offer her a place to stay now that she’s on the rebound?
@17, relax. You’ve already been recognized at the most outraged with your previous posting (no need to keep re-sending). Your award is in the mail.
Wow, six flashies. Is that limit up? Looks like there’s room for a seventh.
I called 140 with no congigual visits which is equal to 150.
Give me my prize.
10 years would have been fair.

octobox!!
I feel bad for him. Everybody is ganging up on him. I will always be your friend, Bernsy!

At least he’ll be able to celebrate his 221 birthday in freedom.
Court Transcript. Happy reading.

That transcript is from 3 months ago. Try to keep up.
Sorry. Old transcript. I’m a loser.
He’ll meet new friends, be able to work on his canasta,have sign out privileges at the jailbird library, and offer free financial planning advice to any and all early parolees.He could get buff, watch lots of Matlock reruns, and make his own shiv in machine shop.
In all, not a bad life….
All this does is guarantee his lifestyle (as shitty as it will probably be) will be funded by his victims (and others) taxes. What would it matter if he got 150 or 500 years. Frankly, it could have been funny to give him his own show (with proceeds going to the victims) where has to do shitty jobs all day. That would be a truer form of justice.
Whew!! At least he didn’t get life in prison!!

News Flash: Ruthie files for guardianship of the Jackson kids, solving two of her problems at once – kids who will actually talk to her, and of course, $$$$$.
@35
Make him work till death as Head of SEC/Finra with mandatory performance measures/goals to hit
Why not just execute him? 150 years is the same thing.
Also we could sell tv ad time and tshirts for the execution to raise money for the victims!
@37 haha, so true!
How soon before he shows up in front of Madame Tousseaus holding soap on a rope?
this poor “depths of hell” bastard confirms that Bernie was running his con at the Alzheimer’s ward.
“Why not just execute him? 150 years is the same thing. ”
actually, it’s not. he should have to suffer.
Blue and red flashy things hurt my eyes
Burn in h*ll, a-hole!
Macke has gathered his carpeople, and put on his cape. Bernie, we’re comin’ to get ya!
what did charles ponzi get? 10 years?
thats the difference between screwing the little italians of boston and screwing the big jews of wall street
In related news, Ruthie and the juniors have started a new venture, Mr. Nice Guy, in which they deliver fine herb to consumers. They hope to raise enough to bail sweet Bernie’s virgin ass out of prison.
“God…if you listenin’…heellllp!”
OK, seven flashies. Can you add a klaxon/siren for something really important? I like the Euro sound if it’s especially dreadful.
@47 don’t forget about me!

Sometimes I wish my name was Shabeefa.
@36 ftw, for life. seriously, that’s probably the best comment i’ve ever seen here.
Why did that letter upset the Judge? The widow’s money was safe with me. Safe in my fucking pocket.
Bernie
@52 here, having gone back on some of the earlier madoff comments today i take back the “probably the best comment” evaluation, no offence to @36. today has really brought out the awesomeness in comments here.
They are saying the judge’s statement is phenomenal. Anyone know where to find it?
@55 – I’m sure @30 can provide the transcript in a few weeks
@52/54 here — @56 case in point.
not @56.
LOBSTERCLOPS is pleased
He will be dead in a couple of years
So, worth it? Yes or no. Discuss.
@48 They didn’t know that the horse was a diabetic!
OK, I’ll go. Definitely worth it. 40 years of the high life. Two-three years in a Martha Stewart-like facility at the end. No nursing home bills. Yes! America, a great country or what?
I’m with @35…could be like a special edition of that “Dirty Jobs” show on the Discovery channel.
So long as Bernie bunks with a few Hell’s Angels types that are serving consecutive life sentences (preferably in an unsupervised sound proof cell) at the conclusion of each day’s filming, I’m all for forcing him to earn some scrilla scratch paper for his victims.
@61: Excellent “Half Baked” reference
@63 and let him occassionally watch footage of himself when he was wealth, pumping in scents of good food from time to time (kind of like re-applying the band-aid just to rip it right off again)
Now throw Bernanke and the other Fed governors behind bars too and we can rid our financial system of all this scum.
What type of prison? I can’t seem to find it. Minimum, maximum, federal? He’s 71; don’t they generally put people at that age in a certain type of jail?

Over under five weeks before he’s scammed all of san quinten out of Newports.

whatevs, it was worth it.

I believe its going to be Federal-”Bang me in the ass”-Prison
@72 – if you are referring to Office Space, it’s “federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison”
If you’re going to quote, at least get it right. There’s a great service called Google that will help.
