His boss, Michael Nowak, was also convicted but was sentenced to one year and one day on Tuesday, according to Bloomberg. Smith, 57, was described by an assistant US attorney as “the most prolific ‘spoofer’ that the government has prosecuted to date” for orchestrating an illegal scheme where he placed bogus market orders with no intention of carrying out the transactions, Bloomberg reported.
