The problem with liars and cheats is that they will bald-faced ignore hard facts, and no matter how obvious the proof, will deny everything and deny yet more proof.
Show them Byrne unable to get certs for months, they will say it is a lie, or proves nothing. Show them FOIA data for 2 years showing 40% shares being FTDs, they will say so what. Show them lawsuits by informed industry insiders against other insiders, and they will pretend it means nothing.
We actually saw that in the Drexel days, with Newport Securities, when they were denying everything right up until the time they were convicted on 64 of the 65 counts. Elgindy was denying everything right until he was convicted.
So was Milken. It is standard operating procedure - deny everything, pretend none of the proof is compelling, and hope the jury is as dumb as you believe them to be.
