John D. Mazzuto: Wonder If He was SkullNBoner?

"Mazzuto and James W. Margulies – a Cleveland lawyer who was the company's finance chief and briefly succeeded Mazzuto as CEO – pleaded not guilty to grand larceny, scheming to defraud and other charges. Together, they're accused of stealing more than $60 million from the now-bankrupt company.

"This was the wholesale looting of a public company for greed and self-enrichment," District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr. said.

Mazzuto's attorney didn't immediately return a call. Margulies' lawyer declined to comment outside court."

"Just Who WAS in Charge When....."

"This story lays bare the far-reaching (and largely unnoticed) emasculation of government regulatory power, as it has succumbed to corporate agendas over the past several decades. Janines examines this, and other disturbing trends, in her book Shadow Elite.
And it's imperative that we dissect the modus operandi of BP, its elite hired guns, assorted patrons, and compromised, enfeebled regulators, to better spot their tactics being used across government, corporate America, and Wall Street. This pernicious M.O. could be detected in both the recent Upper Big Branch Mine disaster, the bank industry collapse and the bailout that followed. So we should ask ourselves not just "how did these catastrophes happen?" but also, "how do we spot the next one waiting to happen?" "
