Former Qwest CEO finally gets busted

If you checked out the headlines in Yahoo news today, you will see that Joe Nacchio finally got busted for his shady stock dealings at Qwest. I know many long-term USWest/Qwest employees who lost their lifetime savings due to this guy.

It's nice to see some justice after so long, but I'll be happier if/when they throw him in jail and hand some of those confiscated funds over to the USWest retirees who lost so much. And if they do throw him in prison, it needs to be a "real" prison. No fed med. No "special" wing of the jail that keeps him separate from the rest of the scum (as they did for Paris Hilton). Real jail, with the same real threatening situations and unwanted personal contact. If guys like Joe don't experience true humiliation and suffering for their illegal acts, what's to keep it from happening again in the future? Hell, this guy's probably made enough money off of interest along to cover the penalty fees...
