Do you think Bernie Madoff's family knew?

If they didn't feel sorry for them because it's not their fault if they didn't know. Their lives are ruined.

    They had to know something was not right and if they did not know it was because the did not want to. The family and even most of the victims will still be better of than ordinary Americans, and if their life is ruined what does it say about the rest of us.

    Walton S. Tissot says something about him having "government access"? He wrote "Bernie almost Madoff". here's a link;

    I don't think we can know. If I had to guess I would say no, but I certainly wouldn't want to condemn them on assumption. Anyone who does is just playing in stereotypes.
