A New York jury that voted not to convict a former mid-level Citigroup official of financial fraud made clear last week that it thought the real culprits in the nation’s mortgage crisis have yet to be put on trial.

Jurors issued an unusual statement along with their verdict in the case of former Citi executive Brian Stoker, The New York Times reported.

“This verdict should not deter the S.E.C. from continuing to investigate the financial industry, review current regulations and modify existing regulations as necessary,” the statement, read out loud by Federal District Court Judge Jed Rakoff, said.
