The justice.gov article has more insights than the news article. From what I can tell, he initially got off on probation for insider trading instead of prison due to 12 letters of references vouching for his character, and he altered/falsified 6 of them. Seems like isolated attempt at profiteering, but I also wonder if this helped contribute to the collapse as well.
