Document Summary

This document is a page from a larger report (identified by the House Oversight footer) analyzing the tenure of Preet Bharara at the Southern District of New York (SDNY). It criticizes the office for failing to prosecute individual banking executives following the 2008 financial crisis, noting that while firms like SAC Capital and JPMorgan Chase faced fines or pleas, individuals (with the exception of Kareem Serageldin) generally avoided criminal charges. The text discusses the jurisdictional habits of the SDNY and its handling of cases related to the Madoff Ponzi scheme and mortgage-backed securities.
