Coby, I am not a lawyer, so it wouldn't be hard to keep me on the run if you want to. But he didn't do anything. There was no proof of anything. The underlying, unproven allegations, were in a class of securities violations that are considered technical. Drexel had no pattern or policy of trying to evade any laws.

There just was no crime.

I have really climbed on the soapbox. I read story after story by authors as ridiculous as Ben Stein on the subject. The linearity of issue to issue was just not there. Milken was rich and powerful, qed he was guilty. There were felons in this day and time that were as guilty as Marion Barry smoking crack cocaine that didn't get rico tossed at them. Conspiracy all over it. Records to prove it.

Milken had no proof thrown at him at all.
