FRONTLINE investigates why Wall Street’s leaders escaped prosecution for any fraud related to the sale of bad mortgages. (Aired 2013)
I remember Obama's AG admitting they were too big to prosecute after he left office. Something like it would undermine the confidence of the markets. It probably would have for a short time rattled the markets. There are 3 other episodes of Frontline that are good to watch as well: Inside The Meltdown (2/2009) Breaking The Bank (6/2009) Money Power & Wall Street (4 Episodes) (4/2012)
