Just saw something wild. A private equity figure involved in a massive $1.6 billion fraud scheme—affecting thousands of victims—just had his 7-year sentence commuted. The timing? Right as he started serving time. Over a thousand people filed statements about their losses. Makes you wonder about accountability in financial crimes when powerful connections come into play. The gap between Main Street consequences and Wall Street outcomes keeps widening.

This is the game of power... With money and influence, one can escape the death penalty.
