Wild that a billionaire’s companies committed fraud for 15 years, found guilty on all counts, and they face a max fine of $1.61 million for their crimes. No jail time. Zero criminal charges. That’s not justice, that’s a payment processing fee. Cost of doing business in America.

@fuckyouiquit coverage that I'm seeing are that these are criminal charges to the corporation, felonies, and the finding on all of them was guilty. Trouble is you can't imprison a corporation. Yeah the fines are lower than I'd like to see.

Let's not sleep on Tish James' civil suit to claw back $250 mil in tax underpayment tho.

@hillernyc correct. But you should be able to imprison the people at said corporation who made the illegal decisions. Why is that not also a thing?

@fuckyouiquit @hillernyc Exactly. If corporations are treated as persons under law, then the living breathing persons on the boards of those corporations should bear the full consequences of their company's crimes, as if they were committed personally..
