Indeed.
I knew a good man who was a bank president that signed mortgage requisisition forms from the FDIC and marked the mortgages paid, to postpone foreclosure.

FDIC was notified by a no good pos that they weren't calling on past due mortgages so 40 guards swarmed the bank and froze all accounts. When they found the deficit they charged him with imbezzlement.

Only one problem... The guy lived in a trailer house and had stolen no money. So they charged him with three counts of signing false statements and sentenced him to 7.5 years in fedpen. They turned a few thousand dollars of late payment into 2.5 million dollars of fraud.

He is out now. Only served about 5 years. Ruined him though and he is a good man. I was there the day he was to report to prison with his family weeping. The fucking prosecutor was comparing him to goldman sachs to the grand jury... All because he was trying to help people that couldn't afford their bills. Fucking pigs.
