Bernie Madoff's Prison Brawl?

HP Highlight - Franks Madoff

Bernie Madoff may be in jail for earning fake profits, but it appears he’s committed to earning “cred” the real way: The New York Post is reporting Madoff, currently serving a 150-year sentence in North Carolina, was part of a “prison-yard tussle”—and that he was the winner. The fight with another senior-citizen inmate was over, of all things, the stock market. “The shouting match got so heated that the inmate pushed Madoff, who shoved back harder with both hands, causing his attacker to stumble,” the Post writes. “As the attacker tried to stand up straight, Madoff hovered over him red-faced and glaring.” After that, Madoff’s foil apparently “went chicken” and ran off. The next day, the two men made up.

Can't beat 'em, join 'em. Wonder how much good the stock market is doing either of the guys involved, while sittin' in jail?!!
Please tell me Madoff will never be able to "invest" again!

Bernie needs to get some bad looking prison tatoos to warn fellow inmates that he is one tough dude that shouldn't be messed with.

Now they say Bernie's got this guy tagging alongside him and holding his pocket, like T-Bag used to make guys do in Prison Break.

I laughed at the description of the fight, when I compared it to what I've seen on "Lockup Raw: Inmates Gone Wild".

Glad the two antagonists made up. Maybe they'll form a prison gang. They can call it the Ponzi Lowriders.

Thought Madoff was dying of cancer. Guess he's got enough spunk left to truly reflect and be remorseful for his crimes.

Why is Madoff in jail? Who benefits? Society is paying over $100,000 per year to keep a senior citizen in jail and watch him die. In this case it is a senior citizen who is pretty smart and who can make a contribution.
My point is that this guy should not be in jail. He should be working for the people who he has defrauded and every penny should be going to them. For how long? Until Mr. Madoff breathes his last breath. That would be true justice. There are ways of seeing to it that he does not skip town.
