I would also trot out ENRON as another example, on a much larger scale. The only person in the entire fiasco that actually did serious jail time was Jeffrey Skilling who was sentenced to 14 years and was released in 2019.
- SilasX 5y agoWell, CEO Ken Lay might have done serious jail time as well, but he died before sentencing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Lay#Enron_bankruptcy_and_trial https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Lay#Enron_bankruptcy_a... Edit: Given the really suspicious timing, and how the death vacated the conviction, "died".
- tacon 5y agoAndy Fastow getting six years is not serious jail time? And his wife got a year. I think they were non-concurrent to allow their young children to have one parent free at all times.
