This one comes from one of I.B.T.C.'s (I Built the Challenger) friends, who alerted us to this incredible blunder.Meaghan Cheung, the SEC's New York watchdog basically missed the boat on Bernard Madoff's $50 billion scheme, despite what some are calling "dead-on tips from whistleblowers." Wow. Hey Ms. Cheung, way to go.
According to an article in the NY Post, she reportedly rebutted the attention and the blame saying, "why are you taking a mid-level staff person and making me responsible for the failure of the American economy?...I worked very hard for 10 years to make a career, and a reputation, and that has been destroyed in a month."
Whah.
So sorry...thats what happens when you don't do your job. What do you tell one of those cute old couples who gave all their money to Mr. Madoff, and now you are broke? Just tell them sorry you f'd up?
Harry Markopolos (a great name) was apparently the gentlemen who "whistle-blew" (is that a word?) and tipped off Cheung...so he gets a big time cheer. As for Cheung, you deserve a big time mental cavity search.
yeay
