Goldman Sachs Subpoenaed

Alleged charges filed on investment banking firm responsible for Housing Crisis

Goldman Sachs was subpoenaed by the Manhattan District’s Attorney’s Office over activities leading up to the financial crisis, a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press.

Goldman has been watched since marketing risky investments that bet on the housing market just before the mortgage meltdown, while simultaneously reaping billions from its own bets that housing would collapse.

The above article appeared in the June 3, 2011 issue of the San Diego Union Tribune, Business Section. Our US Department of Justice has an obligation to bring charges on this blatant criminal activity especially since our tax monies went to bailing out AIG the company that insured the Credit Default Swaps. Our elected representatives must demand accountability and meaningful regulations for these financial institutions!
