More outrageous than the crime itself is the fact that no one from JPM is going to jail.
By collecting a $760MM 'fine' the governement is essentially taking a part of the county's money in exchange for not truly busting them. Its merely a different form of taxation. Its no different than a cop on the take who occasionally shakes down a drug dealer throws him up against the wall, takes the eightball of blow out of his pocket and the roll of 20s, put them in his own pocket and says 'Go on, get out of here ya punk....see you next week'.
