@@toytulog576 you didn't need to add black man/woman in this do you? Are you trying to start something? And to answer your question polygamy also exists in some countries and it is totally upto the people involved in the relationship and the law, and one man leaving women after impregnating them I'll assume there it was consensual here if the woman demands for security and money it is her right and if she can take legal steps, the difference you can understand is one here is marrying people and starting to further their relationship here and the other is consensual coitus and then the end of relationship according to your question

So he had made over $200M before he was caught? Would he have been able to keep the money had he stopped committing the fraud or made the numbers more realistic? If your not satisfied after $100M, idk what to tell you.
Theoretically yes, practically no. Greed is undoubtable a huge part, but stopping is probably harder and less safe than you think. You've built whole departments for your fraud, baked it into processes/accounting throughout, and taught your people to do all these "normal" things. Changing those things would be hard, your fellow fraudsters might not like it, stopping doing those things makes them weird, and risks showing more/new information throughout. It also doesn't reduce risk that much, those processes and paperwork are already on the books, making "more" of the same probably doesn't change the risk of successful investigation as much as you would think. If it didn't raise red flags before, it probably won't moving forward. If it already raised red flags, and started inquiries, doing more of it probably won't change the outcome but gives you more money. Basically at this scale since you don't know if you're already caught or not you might as well steal more. It doesn't make the crime that much less likely to get caught but makes you massively richer which you can use for significant advantages (legal defense, hiding it, etc).

@@jungtarcph When and if you do read it... and I REALLY hope you do; it doesn't have any negative connotation to polygamy. It just gives you a background to Jacob's life. His rise and fall.

Some more details. Levon not only had regular police working for him but also FBI and CIA agents. Not just agents in the US but also in Turkey, Spain, Belize, Armenia and many other places. He was also known for giving away a lot money to people here in SoCal
It is normal . It's just an option we have half the male ancestors as we do female because few men procreate with multiple women. As long as scrooge is consenting and everyone is taken care of I see no issue. Monogamy is rather recent
they are consenting adults. Whatever model for a family/relationship they choose and if the both sides are fine with it - why not? I hear the children grow up to be quite healthy too, as they have a lot of siblings and are cared for.
If homosexuality is normal, if transgenderism is normal, I don't get why Polygamy is where we draw the line. I'd argue its a lot more "normal" than either of those two things, having been an accepted part of many human societies for a long time.

Imagine being so thick, that you make a half BILLION dollars, & decide to just keep going until the inevitable letter of the law catches up with you, I mean, that's never work again for 6 lifetimes money......
One major lesson is that governments should never be allowed to get involved directly with business using taxpayers money. It’s a great way for fraud all over the world and is known as a great fraudulent opportunity by people all over the world.
I don’t really need to know how numbers were fudged between numerous companies by a staff of lawyers and accountants- boring! No thanks! The interest lies in how greed, even more so(!), consumed a polygamist….
He was already a multi-millionaire when he decided to turn into a true scumbag, he was already a scumbag with three wives and 20 kids and had everything any man could want material wise before he wanted the world and that was his downfall, people are greedy and money is the root of all evil and that's just the bottom line.
I hate that expression - ultimately he paid the ultimate price. Wait, were his organs harvested while he was awake and without anesthetics? Nope - OK I guess her didn't pay the ultimate price. Did the tax payers get all the money back including their own legal fees - nope - didn't think so. Is he paying for his own imprisonment or will taxpayers be on the hook for $40K per year - Yep - thought so.
Smh they got too greedy 🙄 what’s wrong with just taking a few million and settling down. There was no need in keeping the operation going they got what they deserved tbh
makes u just raelly hate polygamists. but it's almost like... being a criminal is more of an accurate way to refer to someone instead of their # of wives
man could have set a deadline to stop their crime. $100M is sufficient enough to run more legtimate companies and surround himself with law-abiding, morally upright, highly educated and highly intelligent management team.
In this day age when a guy can decide he wants to be a woman and two men or two women can marry each other, its really strange that we draw the line on polygamy... what exactly is so bad about that? If the women aren't being forced into it, it should be legal.
@@fantscher correct! So technically, basing on official govt documents they are not married. As a matter of fact, their ceremony is illegal. So they should be able to claim govt benefits related to being a single mother like childcare subsidy and so on.

glad they got locked up, awful car colour and modification choices.
As others in the industry did as well. So why get this guy not the bigger fish. This stinks of mob hitman. They needed a small fish to take the full blame for the bigger fish.
we dont know if everyone did, we dont know even if some or all did, did they do it to this extent or with this amount of criminal energy. the doc only states "all did it", there is no evidence presented and the doc was not referring to the scheme of shipping fake oil transports back and forth. in a case where half a billion in tax money is defrauded, I wouldnt want to call it "small fish".
And as always, the greedy bankers always save the day, @14:12

You can't play the government
Its crazy that the gov are willing to issue credits to these random 'companies' without checking the product along it manufacture, distro and their claimed amounts. It would cost peanuts (in respect to the millions in credits they were giving out, to just hire someone externally to check everything is legit.
People complain about government beurocrats then. So people push to outsource it to companies. If you go with anyone other than the lowest bidder, people lose their minds.
Lowest cost breeds low quality.
Of course the turkish guy is the wanna be mobster 😂
He's Armenian. His real name is Levon Termendzhyan.

No. That would make her a spiritual wife defrauding government while her spiritual husband defrauded the government. That isn't bleeding beast that is becoming the beast. They ripped of the honest tax payers.

@@genericamerican7574 So what if woman makes these children from different man? How can it be proven ?
So how much do you guys pay for diesel in the US? 2 dollar subsidies for 1 gallon of bio-fuel. I thought you guys payed about 2 dollars for a gallon of fuel.
