Without being upset, I'm curious what the difference is between this type of arrest and various traditional banks that were civilly fined for money laundering, but not criminally charged.
I doubt many FBI agents would hesitate to pursue a big bank. But they don't seem to be able to, even when there are civil fines given. What causes that, I wonder?
- smtddr 13y agoThe difference is SilkRoad didn't have friends in high places, nor was it giving corrupt politicians/law enforcement/corp execs their cut of the spoils.
- dragonwriter 13y agoWell, actually, this case is exactly about corrupt corporate officials getting a cut of the spoils.
