'dmarinvestment' Sorry, I almost missed your post. The SEC
is a quasi legal enforcement agency, they have no power to jail
anyone. That responsibility belongs to the DOJ. In criminal
cases the requirement is beyond a reasonable doubt. In order
for that to happen there has to be a hard paper trail. Maybe in
these cases an inside party has become a 30% whisle-blower. That's the only way a criminal case can be won. Without the paper evidence, it will always be a civil case.
There is one other possibility for jail time, and that is tax
evasion. There too the IRS will pay a 30% whistle-blower reward,
but that, also, requires someone to produce records.
