In Two Recent Scandals, Crimes Went On For Years Despite Warnings -- Verse-Case Scenario by Tony Peyser

Submitted by BuzzFlash on Thu, 11/05/2009 - 10:42am.

In one case, Pennsylvania judges
Ignored all their responsibilities
And accepted bribes to send kids
For years to juvenile facilities.

And an even better known example
Is Bernie Madoff, who had the luck
To not have SEC investigators look
Into his investments and say, "WTF!"

The common thread in these stories
Where law enforcement hit snags are
People who should know better seem
To not know just what red flags are.
