It absolutely blows my mind how she avoided jail time over this. If I had called someone on the phone and scammed their credit card for $1,000, I'd be looking at 3-5 years in Federal prison. There truly are zero consequences in life beyond a certain level of net worth.

- red_phone 9y agoShe settled the SEC’s civil case against her but the article indicates she remains under a separate criminal investigation.
