Serious question though, we live in a time when a mere mortal is able to carry out an enormous financial crime, whose knock-on effects could be enormous to millions of people directly and indirectly. How do you put a relevant sentence on that? Even whole-life in prison doesn't really make up for the number of people who might be affected by it.

note, I didn't read the article, it was just the headline that made me ask the question so possibly slightly off-topic.
