Great video that will explain it: US Rep. Marcy Kaptur: “LOOK AT THOSE OVER AT THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT AND WHERE THEY WORKED BEFORE THEY GOT THERE”

I THINK ONE OF THE REASONS PROSECUTION ISN’T THE LEVEL THAT IT SHOULD THERE IS SOME PARALYSIS IN SOME PLACES BECAUSE OF THOSE WHO ARE ABLE TO BLOCK A PLAY. (meaning the Justice Department)

-Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur

HUFFPO-

A last-ditch effort by federal and state law enforcement authorities to hold Wall Street accountable for nearly bringing down the U.S. economy is unlikely to lead to any criminal charges against big bank executives, according to a source close to the investigation.

Barring a “hail mary pass,” said the source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the investigation is still ongoing, the members of a task force President Barack Obama formed in January to investigate fraud in the residential mortgage bond industry will instead most likely bring civil lawsuits against some of the banks involved, though it isn’t clear when these cases might come.

That means any penalties for those accused of fraud or other misconduct would be measured in dollars, not jail terms.
