Biz, U.S.: This probably isn’t going to work, Bernie Madoff’s lawyer

Biz: What was Bernie Madoff trying to do when he stole all that money?

  • There’s a good question to ask. Dude stole $50 billion in a fraudulent ponzi scheme and apparently hired people to make fake accounting documents for some stupid reason.
