I said, ‘You’ve got a heart murmur. Be careful.’” ***************** Three old guys are out walking. First one says, “Windy, isn’t it?” Second one says, “No, it’s Thursday!” Third one says, “So am I.

Horowitz Department of Justice Inspector General 950 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Suite 4706 Washington, DC 20530-0001 Dear Mr. Horowitz: I am writing to request an Inspector General review of the Department of Justice (DOJ) response to referrals made by the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission (FCIC) for potential violations of securities laws identified during the FCIC's investigation of the causes of the 2008 financial and economic crisis in the United States. Thousands of FCIC documents were made public for the first time in March 2016. These documents reflect months of work by the FCIC, including hearings and testimony taken under oath, transcribed witness interviews, and thousands of documents collected voluntarily or under subpoena. A review of these documents conducted by my staff has identified 11 separate FCIC referrals of individuals or corporations to DOJ in cases where the FCIC found "serious indications of violation[ s]" of federal securities or other laws. 1 Nine individuals were implicated in these referrals (two were implicated twice). The DOJ has not filed any criminal prosecutions against any of the nine individuals. Not one of the nine has gone to prison or been convicted of a criminal offense.
