Charles Ponzi came from Italy but only reached his full potential in the USA. I don't think that greed and folly are exclusive to America but you have a point; I suspect there are differences in the way we deal with these financial crimes.
I thought the Grifco crooks would be tried and sentenced by now. The Grifco story has been an education for me and I'm still learning. I didn't know there was more to sentencing than a plea agreement and a judge with sentencing guidelines. Maybe the delays are part of the punishment because an unknown fate from a capricious justice system is undoubtedly stressful for the crooks (poor babies lol).
You're following Fringe? I haven't seen it but I'll check it out on your recommendation. The real life drama for the Grifco shareholders and the people (like you) who I've come to know through the GFCI chat boards is another reason I still follow the story. The final episode, sentencing and restitution, is dragging out for a long time.
