Madoff Newsflash: Bongiorno, Annette!

Oh boy.  Here come the accomplices.

The Wall Street Journal is reporting that after interviewing assistants at Bernard L Madoff Securities, investigators have learned that Annette Bongiorno, a 40 year-plus employee of the Ponzi King, had ordered up fake trade confirmations and historical price research on the stocks they pretended to have traded.

Anyone still think Bernie acted alone?

On Thursday, the guilty plea will come and we’ll find out exactly what it is he’s got to bargain with. Hopefully, the whereabouts of a big chunk of the stolen money so investors can get more back once the web is untangled.

Stay tuned, its gonna be an interesting week.

    I am curious as to whether the fees paid to Madoff family attorneys and Sorkin’s fees could subsequently have to be returned to repay investors, if they are found (I’m not sure how they couldn’t be) to be the fruits of this criminal enterprise.

    I was pretty sure that is the case but it would make for a great debate. Kind of like applying the “Son of Sam law” to the case prior to a guilty verdict. Freeze the assets and force him to use a public defender. Too many arguments on both sides to list. Thanks for your response.
