It is true that the death sentence will probably not be carried out if
the criminals show any remorse over the affair but it could be. If
they are convicted and given a death sentence which is later commuted
it will be to life imprisonment.


The Swiss inadvertantly came up with the proper death penalty. They
busted some buy for a white collar crime. They put him in a cell in a
disused wing of the building. They then lost the paperwork, and forgot
him. When they found him months later he was long dead.

Hmm....a fitting end for Wall Street's Madoff, too.
