So, you thought Bank of America and Countrywide Mortgage finally, finally got what was coming to them, when a jury ruled against them a couple years ago, and awarded a $1.2B fine?? You really thought that?
Well, what a surprise. US Appeals court has OVERTURNED A JURY VERDICT and negated the fine. Do you have any idea how hard it is, to overturn a jury's verdict? You know what a jury does, right? They are allegedly common people who sift through presented alleged facts and evidence, and reach a decision.
Uh, no. I'm shocked, I tell ya', just shocked. Martha Stewart goes to prison for alleged insider information, reputation damaged. Golfer Phil Mickelson does the same act, and has to merely return the money and take some public embarrassment. The white men's club is firmly in place, and entrenched. You expected what, change?
A jury verdict, overturned. Like it never happened. And the people wonder if anything will ever change in this country. Not as long as the old school ties are in place they won't.
Imagine the glasses being raised and the toasts made in B of A boardrooms across the country.
Disgusting.
