Re: Republican National Convention 2008
The Keating Five scandal was ugly. Some of those people who lost their life savings even committed suicide. I still remember TV news footage where Charles Keating was shown leaving the courtroom with his lawyer when a distraught elderly lady accosted him, saying "Bring back my husband! You bring back my husband!" His lawyer and security personnel quickly whisked him away from the scene. Through it all, Keating wasn't even man enough to look that old lady in the face.
