Well-known market manipulator Anthony Elgindy is dead
I'm starting to see messages from people quoting this story yet still referring to Elgindy as a "9/11 insider". Apparently the line "The judge would not let that subject be used in court" is too vague for these people. To be a bit clearer: this was a tactic by the prosecutor, whose job it was to investigate financial crimes related to 9/11, to have an excuse to force Elgindy, a Muslim, to be tried in NYC (Ground Zero) rather than in San Diego. It worked. The reason the NY judge disallowed it was because he knew it was total BS. The 9/11 Commission later concluded the same. As a result of this, and with the government threatening RICO charges on anyone who helped Elgindy, do you think anyone in their right mind wanted to testify on his behalf? Elgindy for sure had his flaws, but he at least deserved a fair trial... and he for sure was not even remotely a terrorist.— July 27, 2015 9:48 a.m.
