NEW YORK - The defendants included husband-and-wife lawyers, registered representatives, compliance personnel and hedge fund portfolio managers who improperly relied on hundreds of tips during five years of illegal trading.
Investigators have broken up what they call one of the biggest Wall Street insider-trading rings since the 1980s - a sweeping, $15 million scandal that involved power brokers at some of the nation's top financial firms and two lawyers.
In announcing the case Thursday, authorities described a criminal operation that used insiders at Morgan Stanley and Co. and UBS Securities LLC to steal valuable secrets from the companies. Prosecutors also alleged a Bank of America Securities LLC broker accepted cash kickbacks and two former representatives of Bear Stearns & Co. obtained UBS inside information....

Santa Fe New Mexican
Thursday, March 1, 2007
As today is my last day setting the homepage for The Santa Fe New Mexican I thought I would bid you all farewell. I resigned two weeks ago to better pursue my personal interests. It is to my great amusement however that this day coincides with an astonishing story to share in this blog. There is an uproar rising across the Internet over what is being called yet another blatant, 9/11 smoking gun.

House Panel Subpoenas 4 Prosecutors of 8 Ousted
From NY Times
A House Judiciary subcommittee voted Thursday to issue subpoenas requiring testimony from four of the eight United States attorneys recently dismissed by the Justice Department.
The vote followed remarks this week in which one of the four, David C. Iglesias of New Mexico, said he believed that the motives for his ouster had been political. He and the three others subpoenaed — H. E. Cummins III of Arkansas, John McKay of Seattle and Carol C. Lam of San Diego — were chosen to give testimony because the circumstances of their dismissal are thought to be representative of those surrounding the removal of all eight, Congressional officials say.
The subpoenas order the four to testify at a hearing of the House subcommittee on Tuesday. The Senate Judiciary Committee has also invited dismissed prosecutors to testify that day and may consider issuing its own subpoenas if they do not. Senator Charles E. Schumer of New York, a Democratic member of the committee who has led an investigation of the dismissals, said Thursday, “The U.S. attorneys will be coming, and now we will finally get to the bottom of this.”
The House panel acted after the prosecutors privately told lawmakers that they would not testify voluntarily, not wanting to get in the middle of what has grown into a serious political embarrassment for the Justice Department, but that they would give testimony if compelled.
