Default Go Directly To Jail

Did Holder start doing his job? Did anyone? We will see. But when these aholes who lied in front of Congress, and robbed this country, get burned at the stake I will believe in the future for my children and yours.

A discarded laptop found in the garbage has turned out to be a treasure trove of new information about the only lawsuit the Securities and Exchange Commission has brought over Wall Street’s mortgage securities debacle.

E-mails found on the laptop shed new light on Goldman Sachs trader Fabrice Tourre’s legal battle with the SEC over his involvement with highly controversial sales of mortgage securities, the New York Times said in an extensive report on Wednesday.

The report focused on how Tourre, who famously described himself in e-mails as the "fabulous Fab," has become the “face of mortgage-securities fraud” even as many question how a lone junior trader at Goldman Sachs could have been involved in such an allegedly extensive fraud without others at the firm knowing about it.

An equally intriguing question is how the laptop that was the source of much of the new information made its way into the hands of Times reporters Louise Story and Gretchen Morgenson.

According to the newspaper’s account, it got hold of non-public communications from Tourre’s lawyers to the SEC from a laptop provided by an artist and filmmaker in New York, Nancy Cohen (also known as Nancy Koan). Cohen says she found the materials in a laptop that a friend gave her in 2006.


According to the Times, that unidentified friend told Cohen he stumbled upon the laptop in a garbage area in a downtown New York apartment building.

“E-mail messages for Mr. Tourre continued streaming into the device, but Ms. Cohen said she had ignored them until she heard Mr. Tourre’s name in news reports about the SEC case," the Times reported. "She then provided the material to The Times."

Cohen actually had the laptop for several years before Tourre's name first turned up on the front page of newspapers in connection with the mortgage fraud case.

“She said, where have I heard that name? Oh, yeah, it’s on the welcome screen of my computer,” said Curtis Ellis, a political consultant and friend of Cohen's who said he was enlisted to help the artist deal with a deluge of media calls Wednesday.

Cohen went to “a number of people” with the story, and the Times was the first to call back, Ellis told msnbc.com.

DT is a microcosm of America. The rubes around here care more about junk pictures than prosecution of the people who brought down the world economy. We need to see Joe Cassano and Win Neuger in the clink too.

I don't care about junk pictures but his actions are that of someone who does cocaine on the regular.

The hacking excuse is also what a drug addict would use.

In 2007 in posts here I said Angelo Mozzilo will go to jail. Can't believe he isn't there yet. The whole premise of Countrywide was mortgage fraud.

What's not to believe Randall? They have bought everyone that could cause them grief. After watching Inside Job this weekend I am even more disgusted/depressed. They even bought academia whom I hoped our leadership would lean on to get answers since they aren't blinded by money. Wrong. I'm so ****ing naive.

This guy sold insurance without ever caring if he had to pay knowing that he was paid a commision on SALES. Who ****ing cares because I got mine. We need to send Seal Team 6 over to England where he is supposedly holed up.
