Given that Madoff was given 150 years for a $65 billion scam, Shalom Weiss must be feeling pretty pissed off that he got 845 years for a mere $450 million scheme back in 2000. Glad to see consistency in the sentencing system.

And yes, I know that the statutory limit on the crimes that Madoff was charged with was 150 years. I’m assuming that they will be served concurrently, not consecutively?

Info via dihard’s great list of the longest prison sentences for white-collar crimes in the US.

About

Londoner, thinking and writing far too much about far too many random things. Wannabe photo-/videographer of my life. More likely to be found propping up a bar somewhere.

I also write about football.
