Schlichtmann begins to be influenced by non market forces. He becomes more empathetic with the families who lost their children. His feelings get more intense and his motivating factor (money) is no longer his reason for pursuing the case. He probably could have settled for $25 million with both companies, but he wanted more for the families, so he let his emotions take over and caused the case to go to trial.

They send out thousands upon thousands of handbills requesting workers. In reality they are just trying to further their own wealth by paying workers lower and lower wages. If there are too many workers, they can pay as little as they want to. A man will not let his family go hungry when he can change it. He will gladly work for two cents per bucket of peaches.
Bernie Madoff is a lucky man. To be run a ponzi scheme for that long and not get caught is unimaginable. Almost as unimaginable as the fact that not one of his ripped clientele tried to kill him. Money is the controlling force in our nation, and to be stripped away of almost all of it is a punishment all itself. But that affects his wife and family more than him, so 150 years in a federal prison will have to do as a direct punishment for him.

He has several surgeries on his back but eventually had to take a disability retirement. My grandparents moved to North Carolina to escape big city life to finish raising their family. Papaw thrived on excitement, and being "in" on the lastest rescue missions in the community really made his day. He joined the Center Pigeon Fire Department and became a first responder.

At that time I was going to Cosmetology school. When I got out of the hospital I dropped out of Cosmetology school and enrolled at Miller-Motte which was the best decision that I ever made for my future . I wanted a career that I could fall back on 20 years from now. I didn’t want to get rid of all the old things so, that I could look forward to all the great things that God has in store.
