The dirty thief was treated at a hospital for a collapsed lung, facial fractures, and broken ribs, all of which are consistent with a prison assault.</p><p>The way I see it, Bernie made a deal with the devil early in his life. The decisions he made allowed him to live like a king during his best years. The majority of his life was spent enjoying luxuries most humans will never experience.</p><p>Now, he’s 71-years old and must pay for all those good years with his life. Bernie will spend his twilight years doing menial jobs like laundry for 5 cents a day, while dodging convicts looking to make their bones by extorting him, assaulting him, and eventually killing him.</p><p>Chances are he won’t live to be that old. For the sake of argument let’s say he lives to be 80. That would mean he spent about 40+ years living a hedonistic lifestyle funded solely by blood money and barely 10 years in prison.</p><p>To a sociopath like Bernie Madoff, that’s not such a bad deal.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2009/12/24/madoff-gets-butt-kicked-in-prison/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>7</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Bernie Madoff Interviewed From The Clink</title><link>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2009/07/30/bernie-madoff-interviewed-from-the-clink/</link> <comments>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2009/07/30/bernie-madoff-interviewed-from-the-clink/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 30 Jul 2009 17:22:22 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Chris Jones</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Crime]]></category> <category><![CDATA[U.S. News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[bernie madoff]]></category> <category><![CDATA[bernie madoff interview]]></category> <category><![CDATA[crime news]]></category> <category><![CDATA[financial crimes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[madoff interview]]></category> <category><![CDATA[madoff ponzi scheme]]></category> <category><![CDATA[madoff prison]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.thehotjoints.com/2009/07/30/bernie-madoff-interviewed-from-the-clink/</guid> <description><![CDATA[Super-swindler Bernie Madoff granted his first interview since being sent to prison for 150-years for running the biggest Ponzi scheme in history.

He literally stole the livelihood of every person he ever called his friend and thousands more people he never even met. Every handshake, every lunch, every phone call to discuss a business deal was based on a lie and a fraud.</p><p>A normal person couldn’t look themselves in the mirror for 20+ years with the knowledge that someday everyone you knew would discover you stole their life savings and left them with nothing.</p><p>Madoff is a schemer and a predator who deserves to be executed. He has the blood on his hands of three different people who committed suicide after learning their life’s wealth had been stolen.</p><p><em>(hat tip </em><a href="http://www.mediaite.com/tv/the-madoff-prison-interview-part-i/" target="_blank"><em>Mediaite</em></a><em>)</em></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2009/07/30/bernie-madoff-interviewed-from-the-clink/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Madoff Guilty Plea Expected</title><link>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2009/03/06/madoff-guilty-plea-expected/</link> <comments>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2009/03/06/madoff-guilty-plea-expected/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 06 Mar 2009 20:47:24 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Chris Jones</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Business News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Crime]]></category> <category><![CDATA[bernie madoff]]></category> <category><![CDATA[financial fraud]]></category> <category><![CDATA[madoff case]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.thehotjoints.com/2009/03/06/madoff-guilty-plea-expected/</guid> <description><![CDATA[The Feds have reached a deal with Bernie Madoff which requires him to admit to his role in the biggest financial fraud in American history.

His phony investment firm may have stolen as much as $50 billion dollars from investors over the years.</p><p>The plea deal does not include any agreement on the amount of prison time Madoff could receive or any promises not to prosecute other Madoff family members. Investigators believe Madoff’s sons were aware of the scam and active participants in it.</p><p>Three different investors have committed suicide since it was revealed that Bernie Madoff’s entire business was a fraud. Director Steven Spielberg reportedly lost millions to Madoff and actor Kevin Bacon lost his life savings to the con man.</p><p>Personally, I can’t wait to see this scumbag rotting away in the clink for the rest of his miserable life. You have to be one sick bastard to knowingly scam your own friends out of their life savings.</p><p>I truly believe that if this country was really about justice, Madoff would be tried, convicted, and then taken behind the courthouse and shot.</p><p><em>-Chris Jones</em></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2009/03/06/madoff-guilty-plea-expected/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> <!-- google_ad_section_end --></channel> </rss>
