Not even him, and you want to kill for less than that.

I've never seen a good argument for the death penalty from you,

Ex-Bank President Arrested for Allegedly Lying to Get
TARP Money

The former
president of a small community bank was arrested on charges that he lied to
the federal government to get a piece of the bailout program, authorities said
Monday.
NEW YORK -- The former president of a
small community bank was arrested on charges that he lied to the federal
government to get a piece of the bailout program, authorities said
Monday.
Charles Antonucci Sr. was charged in a criminal complaint filed in
U.S. District Court in Manhattan with self-dealing, bank bribery, embezzlement
and fraud.
Authorities said the rip-off targeted the New York State Banking
Department, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. and the Troubled Asset Relief
Program.
Antonucci resigned last year as president of The Park Avenue Bank,
which is headquartered in Manhattan with four retail branches in Manhattan and
Brooklyn.
Among other allegations, Antonucci was accused of using false
information to request $11 million from the federal government's TARP bank
bailout program.
The complaint accused him of lying to banking authorities
in late 2008 and early 2009 to make them believe he had invested $6.5 million
of his own money in the bank when the money actually belonged to the
bank.
After the application for TARP money was rejected, Antonucci did a
media interview in which he said the bank withdrew its application because of
"issues" with the TARP program and a desire to avoid "market perception" that
bad banks take TARP money, the complaint said.
Federal authorities say
Antonucci actually wanted to obtain millions of dollars for his own use, in
part so he could obtain a controlling interest in the bank.
They said he
also permitted a former administrative assistant to obtain $400,000 of loans
the assistant was not qualified for. The complaint said the former assistant
is now cooperating.
The complaint alleged that Antonucci later used the
former bank employee's private plane on 10 or more occasions, including trips
to Phoenix to attend the Super Bowl, to Augusta, Ga., to watch the Master's
golf tournament, a flight to Florida to visit a relative and a flight to
Panama.
Antonucci's lawyer, Charles Stillman, said he had just gotten a
copy of the charges. He declined immediate
comment.
