Bernard Madoff steals 50 billion,should he get bail ?

Tweet

Bernard Madoff was an investment agent that lured many persons to invest over 5o billion billions of dollars in his investment company .An investment company that claimed to have investments all over the globe but turned out to be one big ponzi scheme ,that is using new investments to pay old investors .Needless to say the scheme has now crashed and it has left many wealthy persons now contemplating bread and butter issues and poorer ones contemplating survival. He was subsequently arrested as news broke of the investment scam He has actually gotten bail already but should he be on bail. I mean this is a man that has managed to rip off investors billions of dollars .Some of these investors are wealthy actors ,banks and charitable organizations. Some of them are persons who have invested their life saving into what they think was a reputable investment that didn’t pay over the top returns and now many are broke. The scam run by Bernie spans several continents and countries from America, to Australia ,France even Switzerland. Now my question is would the judge be as lenient with a street boy who robbed Madoff two thousand dollars. I am thinking that this kid would probably be locked away so far he would be forgotten, I maybe wrong but I stand corrected if I am. I thought that before they granted bail they made about three consideration: Is this person a flight risk Will this person pervert the course of justice Will his presence be a risk to himself and others. I think if all those issues were considered Madoff should be turned down. Firstly it wouldn’t be hard for Madoff to slip on a private jet and go to a country where there is no extradition .He may even be able to continue his practice under a different name. Or if he so desires he may go via a his expensive yatch. Secondly this is a man with a lot of money and he can use this money to bribe prospective court official or would be witnesses .He has already started to send off expensive gifts to his friends in an effort to hide some of his money. Finally I am sure there are many persons who would want to get their hands on him and members of his family. I think though that he is being guarded. I think one of the things that make this case so brutal is that Madoff was a very rich man and didn’t need to invest in this ponzi scheme .He would have made millions of dollars legitimately because his name carried a lot of clout on wall street. Yet he was able to create a brand that lured many persons to their eventual demise .And this has further infuriated many persons who advocate that he shouldn’t be on bail What do you think about this situation. Should Madoff be given bail or locked so far away that he never sees daylight again in his life ?Pleas state your reasons for your answers.
