- zaidf 9y agoSEC cannot bring criminal charges. The Justice Department can. We will see if they do in the case of Elizabeth Holmes.
- milankovic 9y agoOkay, interesting. Although it seems a bit strange that this would end up in Washington at the federal level, i.e. Justice Department.. I don't think that they have to deal with just any case of fraud, even big ones. But I could be mistaken. But if the Justice Department handles this I wouldn't be surprised if this whole thing gets kind of, well, political.. Also, this somehow begs the question who brought the charges in Shkreli's case.
- milankovic 9y agoWell, that is also my limited understanding so far.. Is it accurate to say that he broke the law by misleading his investors?
