It's just money.
In addition to CAG I frequent a law forum (mostly pre-law ppl, but quite a few law students also)... people there are flipping out. There are talks about "is 150 years enough?", "do you think he could find anyone willing to represent him if he went to court?", etc... imo, it's just not that bad at all... I seem to be the only one there of that opinion, so I figured I'd see what you guy thought.
IMO, he no doubt belongs in jail for the rest of his life, but I really don't think what he did is as bad as even a single murder or rape, much less mass murderers. People there are comparing him to dictators who've killed hundreds. I find that ridiculous. I definitely believe there are 1000's of criminals in America who are more vile than Bernie Madoff... it's just money.
