Feel better?

While wanting equal justice for equal infraction is noble, in practice it is quite impossible. Each prosecution takes on a life of its own and evolves through the facts of each case. Prosecutors can't punish companies. It's up to the SEC to do that. So, they go after people. While all parties involved share in the guilt, the persons remaining in power have the resources to deflect the assault of prosecution. In these cases, it's the people who have given up their power that get burned.

I agree that the whole thing ought to be dropped, dismissed, thrown out of court. It is apparent the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 took care of the corporate excess in this regard anyway.
