Again a situation in which the rich simply cannot lose. Fraud for 400 million, worst case they “catch” you and you have to settle for double, but he could have used that 400 million for years to expand his fortune, now that settlement is still cheap for him. Besides, if they never caught him, he would have had even more.
The only real punishment for these people is taking away their time, i.e jail time.
Why not both? Pay back 400 million, plus interest and jail time?
