"Asset Search News Roundups" from this year on January 10, March 17, March 25, April 1, etc., raised a variety of issues related to Bernard Madoff.  My very last post, (i.e. "Will Ruth Madoff Keep Her Remaining $2.5 Million?), was also connected to him.  I again mention Bernard Madoff, among other things: 

• "Madoff gets 150 years for massive investment fraud" provides some details about yesterday’s sentencing of Bernard Madoff.  His sentence was memorialized by the Court’s June 29, 2009 judgment.

• Monica Conyers also resigned from the Detroit City Council yesterday, as was reported by The Associated Press.  Her criminal case will be discussed in my next article, "Public Corruption Charges Against Two Politically Exposed Persons". 

• "Efforts to Curb Foreign Bribery Lack Vigor, Report Finds" &  "The world is losing the fight against international bribery" are about a public corruption / anti-bribery report presented at an OECD  meeting in Paris.  This "2009 OECD Anti-bribery Convention Progress Report" is available at Transparency International’s website.
