USA: The Murderous Aspect of Securities Fraud

Abstract

The popular notion is that securities frauds are a non‐violent, white‐collar variety of criminal enterprise. Not necessarily so in a recent case generally known as Premier Benefit Capital Trust. The main perpetrators of this alleged fraud, when being called to account before a court for their activities, appear to have turned decidedly violent. They are accused of conspiracy to murder the Federal Court judge hearing the case.
