Her son turned him in? I don't know, I just remember hearing she withdrew millions the day before he was arrested. I didn't realize her son turned him in. If she did withdraw money, I believe that makes her complicit. I believe she is anyway, because Bernie also allegedly put the house in her name right before he was arrested, as did that Fuld guy from Lehman Bros (CEO), right before they went down. If that's the case, the wives should definitely be held accountable as well, if there is an investigation. I don't believe you should be able to hide your assests in your spouses name when you do things that might be considered illegal, in order to keep them.
