ONGOING CRIME BREAKING NEWS!

Starting in January 2020, this thread is about the news as it breaks!

Bernard Madoff says he is dying and is asking a judge for compassionate release from prison, where he is serving 150 years for orchestrating the largest Ponzi scheme in history, according to a Wednesday federal court filing.

Madoff, 81, has terminal kidney failure and a life expectancy of less than 18 months. When the court sentenced him, “it was clear that Madoff’s 150-year prison sentence was symbolic for three reasons: retribution, deterrence, and for the victims,” the court filing states. “This Court must now consider whether keeping Madoff incarcerated … is truly in furtherance of statutory sentencing goals and our society’s value and understanding of compassion.”

Madoff said in the request for compassionate release that he “does not dispute the severity of his crimes.”

Wasn't Hitler/weren't Germans wanting the "perfect" race, the blonde haired, etc. and thought such superior? That's all I can think of as to what is meant so in a way, was it a race thing?

I don't know. @Sunburst can you shed some light on this for us?

 

[GrandmaBear]

Quite true. Maybe he had a complex about that, a Hitler complex.

I used to know but my memories with school history aren't perfect but they experimented on the Jews medically, he I thought was trying or "they" were to create the perfect race, cure illness/maybe live eternally, I think it was the unfounded belief of creating an Aryan race or something like that. Not just him but the Nazis/certain Germans as well.

 

[GrandmaBear]

Maybe it wasn't a race that existed, I have vague memories of them wanting to breed the best to create the best... In looks, intel and more...
