Bernard Madoff To Face Victims In Court

by Darren

Bernard Madoff is finally going to meet his victims in court. Madoff admitted to the largest Ponzi Scheme in December, yet he’s remained out of jail the whole time.

Madoff, the former Chairman of NASDAQ, has been under house arrest since December 2008.

On Friday US District Judge Denny Chin invited victims to attend court this Thursday, when Madoff is expected to enter his “Guilty” plea.

It’s widely being speculated that Madoff is likely to enter into a “plea agreement” in order to minimize his legal damages. After his guilty plea, it’s expected that the District Attorney will hit the disgraced financier with even more charges.

“Madoff is about to enter his guilty plea,” SEC attorney Jacob Frenken said. “A criminal information is a consented-to criminal charge used to enter a guilty plea.”
