This week, the ceo of wells fargo was grilled on capitol hill over a multiyear scheme that enriched the bank by illegally opening two million sham accounts without customer permission. It seems to be an ongoing theme big banks behaving badly. A few years back it was Lehman Brothers the worlds fourth largest bank until it got caught up in the mortgage crisis. Today, we hear the disturbing story of what happened to three women who worked for Lehman Brothers and were calling the their court case. Linda weekes greed is what happened. Its the almighty dollar and once that comes into play, people lose all consciousness and sense of right. Sharyl what these women saw coming was the mortgage crisis that would plunge america into a deep recession in 2008. But their story starts three years earlier at bnc mortgage in sacramento, california. Starting in 2005, linda weekes noticed something fishy. She says Loan Officers from loan applications to bnc with documents that were obviously doctored. Linda i found five in one day from the same company. Sharyl five notices that you thought fraud had been committed . Linda five loans that had falsified documentation in the loans in reference to income, Bank Statements, and job information. One of the five files, they used the same w2, just changed the sharyl coleen colombo says she saw the same thing. Coleen colombo information was whited out and then retyped in and copied. Linda they ended up taking Bank Statements and instead of showing the actual deposit, maybe it was 1,000, it was now 11,000, or whatever they needed to do. Then, but it was happening nationwide. Loan officers allegedly falsifying documents to qualify people for loans they probably couldnt afford. Banks have conditioned us to trust them. Sharyl the story was told in the big short, a movie released last december. The whole Housing Market is propped up by these bad loans. They will fail. The Housing Market is rock solid. Its a time bomb. Sharyl when someones income is exaggerated, its not doing them a favor, because it just means theyre gonna have a house they cant really afford the payments on . Linda correct. Correct. Reviewers of the loan applications to sound the alarm. And they did so over and over again, they allege in a lawsuit, to their bosses and to bncs parent company, wall street giant Lehman Brothers. Coleen we would bring it to Corporate Office attention. And they started pushing us away, telling us to quit calling them and bothering them. Sharyl Cheryl Mcneil claims in the lawsuit higherups retaliated by steering work to other employees. Cheryl mcneil i was closing, and thats really good. When i started finding the fraud in the file and questioning it, the Branch Manager started retaliating against me. And because i was finding the fraud, then he started taking the files back slowly and giving it to another account manager. Sharyl does that affect your income . Are you cheryl it affects my income. cause my numbers are going down. Each time i complained, nothing happened. Then you just get this feeling, like, its its not right. Coleen i remember, at one point, just actually thinking, why on earth . I i just cannot believe they are allowing this to happen. These people are not going to be able to make the payments on these home. This is not good for the company in the long run, its not good for the homeowners in the long its greed. Its the bottom line. If they closed 10 million last month, lets do 15 million this month. And if you cant do it, youre out. Sharyl too many people in the mortgage industry were getting rich off the questionable loans. The women say the more they resisted what they saw as fraud, the more insistent their superiors became. So you guys were made into the bad guy when you were actually trying to help the company and the people and flag the fraud. Coleen yes. Linda but we thought we were protectin our company by soundin the alarms. We really thought that they would embrace us and be happy and, like, oh, thank you no. Sharyl with matters coming to a head, the women allege in their complaint, bnc brought in a mysterious account manager named daniel, who began stealing their files at night, they say, and harassing them mercilessly by day. Linda he walked past my office regularly with his hands in his pocket, simulating masturbation. I thought it was all in my mind. Cheryl we didnt know what daniels role was in the office. He just walked around simulating masturbation. So one day, i remember, he just came over to my desk and he just scooted up against me, he started breathin down my neck and made sexual references to me, like, he would like to be with a black woman. Just a really, really creepy guy. Sharyl we were unable to reach daniel, whos a named defendant claims about daniel. In the past, the company has said it hired an outside investigator to review the womens complaints about fraud, but found no evidence bnc employees were slipping falsified documents into loan files. In the lawsuit, weekes says a manager brushed her off her concerns about daniel. Linda i reported him. He did racial slurs to me. I reported those. And i said, this is what daniel did. And he says, oh, well, we call him chester the molester. And he dismissed it all. Sharyl did you come to the conclusion that daniel was sent there to harass you and make you uncomfortable . Coleen yes. Sharyl so that you would leave . Coleen yes. Because when we even went to Corporate Office asking, who is this person and what is his position here . What does he do . We cant understand why he is here. And we were told, you know, basically, not to worry about it and, do your job. And close your loans. Sharyl if the goal was to make whatd you say was the reason you were quitting . Cheryl just couldnt take it anymore. You know, it wasnt a good environment, it wasnt good on my health, you know. And it was very, very stressful. Every day, you would just cry. Its cause you didnt know what was goin to be happening to you. Sharyl weekes was soon behind her after a final Close Encounter with daniel alleged in the lawsuit. Linda daniels in back of me with his hand on my shoulder, breathin down my neck, askin me can he help me an genitals against my backside. Well, i lost it, because i had an immediate panic attack, immediately. And i just i thought i screamed. But they tell me i didnt. They just saw me run out of the office. Sharyl by september of 2005, six women had resigned from bnc. Linda we refused to participate. We refused to turn a blind eye. If i say that this is a good loan, i want it to be good for my company. More importantly, i want it to be good for the homeowner. And thats what got lost. Sharyl before long, the ceiling began to collapse on the mortgage industry. Certainly not all foreclosures involved fraud. But heres one example of how homeowners got in way over their heads. In 2002, this California Home sold for 301,000. In 2005, at the height of the bubble, it sold for more than double and bnc financed the entire cost, according to public records. By 2006, it was in foreclosure. Bnc had made so many bad loans, Lehman Brothers shut it down in 2007 and then filed for bankruptcy protection itself in 2008. Just like the women had feared and warned about, the chickens had come home to roost. Coleen and it was happening. And now look what its done. It was almost surreal. It was, like, this is this is really happening. Sharyl they sued Lehman Brothers claiming wrongful termination, but the bankruptcy stalled their day in court. And so the very women who worked coleen you become labeled as a whistle blower. And Mortgage Companies dont wanna hire you because youre a risk. I wasnt able to find work. And that affected my whole life. I lost everything. Cheryl i lost my apartment, i lost my car. I was unable to, you know, send my son off to college. Sharyl Gary Gwilliam is the attorney representing the women in their lawsuit. It sounds like these women were unknown players in the big short . Mr. Gwilliam well, they were. But nobody paid any attention to them. Its now been over 10 years, almost 11, and their cases have languished in the largest bankruptcy in the history of the united states. Sharyl in an appearance before congress in 2008, former Lehman Brothers chairman richard fuld took responsibility for the bnc, but denied misleading investors. Mr. Waxman your company is now bankrupt, our economy is in a state of crisis, but you get to keep 480 million. Richard fuld i believe my Cash Compensation was close to 60 million, which you have indicated here. And i believe the amount that i took out of the company over and above that was, i believe a little bit less than 250 million, still a large number though. Sharyl today, fuld is reported to have a mansion in greenwich, his sun valley, idaho estate sold at auction for 20 million. Linda they still have their vacation homes. Nothing has been upset for them. Theyre not being punished. We have been punished. We are still being punished. So i dont see why they should get off the hook when we tried to help them. This was the most devastating thing that couldve happened to a great country such as this. It brought us to our knees. They just wrote a whole new book and have been allowed to operate out of it. So i think its unfair. Sharyl today, the country is recovering from the recession. And the women are hoping to reach a settlement with whats left of a liquidated Lehman Brothers. But life has taken a permanent turn. Coleen its devastated me. My selfesteem i used to be a very competent, resourceful, and good underwriter. And i just dont have the confidence anymore. I dont i cant remember how the strength of that person that i used to be has gone. Linda its its so devastating. And people dont really realize. But to know her before, and to know her now, and to hear her say that, its kinda painful. It its very painful. Because its so unfair. Sharyl Lehman Brothers, still negotiating debts in bankruptcy court, has said in the past that it denies the womens complaints and intended to fight them. So far, settlement talks in this case have been unsuccessful. Up next on full measure to stop home grown terrorists in the u. S. , scott thuman takes us to britain, where a program to deradicalize youth is showing sharyl ahma rahami, the muslim man accused of setting bombs in by Osama Bin Laden and other islamic extremists. The father of rahami says he told the fbi two years ago he feared his son was a terrorist. This week, Homeland Security chief jeh johnson said the threat of lone wolf attacks, inspired by, but not officially linked to a terror group, keeps him up at night. A recent full measure Rasmussen Reports poll asked, can the u. S. Ever be safe from lone wolf attacks . Almost threequarters said no. To date, the terrorists are doing a better job recruiting than we are redeeming. Scott thuman traveled to england to meet one man who is making a difference. Where these young men are playing here, thats where i used to run a soccer club. Scott follow Jahan Mahmood long enough and you are bound to find yourself in, what over the years, has been a breeding ground of aspiring terrorists. Jahan the population here is predominantly muslim, more than 80 . They tend to come from areas of through birmingham, a couple hours hour north of london, and where the former military history professor does most of his work trying to deradicalize young men. Jahan i mean, in this area alone, this area at one point had the largest number of terror convictions in the country. Scott your whole goal is to stop them from getting to the point that they actually go overseas . Jahan absolutely. Scott you feel youre being successful . Jahan well, the people i do know of who ive stopped is seven. Scott like this 26year old, wh were calling cameron. When it all kicked off after september 11th. Scott and you wanted to get to the battlefield . I wanted to get to the battlefield. That was the main aim. Scott to fight back to kill british, to kill americans . Of course, yeah, if thats what it would have taken, yeah. Scott thats what jahan is trying to temper. He says, in this area, where arabic voices dominate the soccer fields, roughly 40 of those living here are under 18, they are impressionable, easy targets for isis recruiters. He recalls one instance involving a handful of teens. Jahan he was watching. He had, actually on his phone, he had downloaded the beheading of ken bigley, who was a british contractor in iraq, and i was shocked to see these young men, a number of them, huddled around watching and laughing. I just couldnt understand why beheading of an innocent man. It just didnt make sense. Scott the Guardian Newspaper claims 800 britons left the country last summer alone to fight with the terror group and just a week after our visit, four more alleged terrorists were arrested, two in this neighborhood. Who did you want to fight with . It was obviously against the west. You know, because we felt like they were destroying peoples lives. Yeah, obviously and the u. K. , at the time. Scott do you hear a lot of that, do you hear a lot of that antiamerican sentiment . Jahan i hear it a lot. I mean i have to be honest with you is that i hear a lot of it, absolutely, and its all based on conflicts in afghanistan, iraq, and syria. Scott to counter that through meetings sometimes organized at a local mosque or at this old pool hall, jahan shows them sobering, graphic pictures of jihadists killed in battle an them. And he points out that the terrorists often kill innocent muslims. That was a bit of a turning point for you, when you realized that muslims were also a target of the terrorists . Yeah, definitely. It did make me think, whoa, why would i go out there . It would be stupid of me to go out there. Scott jahan says winning over even one potential jihadist can have an incalculable effect. Jahan heres a conversation i remember. Heres your car keys. To a local person . Would you really do that . And yet, youre handing your life over to someone on the internet that youve never met before. Why would you do that . Scott but theres no perfect formula for deradicalizing and jahan could use all the allies he can get. Imams, he says, are often falling short. Jahan i do feel that religious leaders have failed in their religious duty to try and make their communities safer and theyve not been able to engage properly. Scott it is gaining the upper hand of controlling the message that will be essentio radicalization in britain, in europe, and in the united states. The wins will be measured by individuals, like cameron hes now 26, with a job, a wife, a child, and a future one he was on the brink of gambling away. You look back now and you think that you would have just been a number . Yeah, definitely. I would have been a number and i would have been deleted at any time. Radicalizing, what do they do or say to the youth that make them want to kill innocent people . Scott keep in mind, they are preying on impressionable young men and they are focusing on any incident where the was the killing of an innocent or civilian muslim, say an accidental bombing at the hospital, and they point to the west and say, that is your enemy. Sharyl fascinating. Thank you, scott. Coming up, fbi director comey was called to congress this week about his email probe and we heard some surprisingly familiar questions about missing im Catherine Cortez masto and i i approve this message. As a doctor, i see how decisions in washington impact my patients here in nevada. So even though im a republican, i wont be voting for joe heck. Anned parenthood, which thousands of women depend on for cancer screenings. And heck opposes a womans right to choose even when her health is at risk. For me and my patients, joe heck makes no sense. Sharyl this week, congress questioned fbi director comey about giving five Hillary Clinton associates immunity from prosecution in her email investigation, including those allegedly involved in destroying evidence after it was subpoenaed. Earlier this month, i combed through hundreds of fbi documents and compiled a list of missing or destroyed evidence, which i read to oversight chaffetz, whos investigating the case. Once i sorted through the fbi summary, it was pretty clear the fbi had no idea if it saw key Hillary Clinton emails. Some of what they found was the clintons apple personal server she used for work email couldnt be found, an apple mac book laptop an apple macbook laptop and thumb drive containing Hillary Clintons email archives was lost. Sharyl this week, congressman John Ratcliffe used my list in questioning fbi director james comey before the house judiciary committee. Congressman ratcliffe two blackberry devices provided to fbi didnt have their sim or sd data cards. 13 Hillary Clinton personal mobile devices were lost, discarded, or destroyed with a hammer, so the fbi clearly didnt examine those. Various server backups were deleted over time, so the fbi couldnt examine them. After those emails were subpoenaed, Hillary Clintons email archive was also permanently deleted from the Platte River Network with bleachbit, so the fbi did not look at that. And also after the subpoena, the backups of the platte river server were manually deleted. Because it comes from your own documents. My question to you is this. Any one of those in that very, very long list to me says obstruction of justice. Collectively, they scream obstruction of justice. And to ignore them really allows, i think, not just reasonable prosecutors, but reasonable people to believe that maybe the decision on this was made a long time ago not to prosecute Hillary Clinton. Dir. Comey to ignore that which we dont have . Were in a factbased world. We make our evaluations based on the evidence gather using the tools that we have. So its hard for me to react to these things that you dont have. So thats my reaction to it. Sharyl in defense of the fbis investigation, comey said, you can call us wrong, but dont call us weasels. Still ahead, Congress Takes a stand and overturns a president ial veto involving 9 11 victims. Who really won when we sharyl in an historic vote this week, congress overturned president obamas veto of a bill allowing the families of 9 11 victims to sue saudi arabia for any role in the islamic extremist terrorist attack. Its the First Time Congress has overridden president obama. He did not take the rejection well. President obama i think it was a mistake. And i understand why it happened. Sharyl president obamas that said that he vetoed the 9 11 bill because it could lead to Foreign Countries suing the u. S. Override of the veto is a victory for the families, including terry strada, who spoke to us several times over the past year in the saudis role in financing the 9 11 attacks. Her husband died in the 9 11 attacks. He was a wonderful father, he went to work that day and never came home like thousands of people. We have also been fighting for this. We fight for our children and the futures. This is about accountability. It is a lesson i been trying to teach my children. We want to teach all of our children. Now this is coming true for them. We are going to be a to hold people accountable that were sharyl the new law cancels Foreign Countries immunity in from american lawsuits. Now u. S. Citizens can sue foreign nations if they are found to possibly have taken part in terror attacks in the u. S. Coming up next week on full measure everyday theres a new poll to predict who will be the next president of the united states. We take a look at the science and the history of why you cant always trust the numbers. Thanks for watching. Jacky rosen im jacky rosen, and as a computer programmer, i created apps. Before they were called apps and i learned theres always a Smart Solution. As president of my synagogue, we found a Smart Solution to Rising Energy costs. Creating one of the largest Solar Projects in the state. To make all of nevada a leader in solar, to improve our schools, and create good jobs. I approved this message because i know we can we all know you have to Work Together in order to get things done. But in washington, too often joe heck has been part of the problem, putting his party and special interests before nevada. Im proud of my work with the bush and obama administrations and every bill i sponsored as attorney general was passed by democrats and republicans. Im Catherine Cortez masto. I approve this message because ill work with anyone it almost made me sick. I was on the floor and then i kind of got myself together. Said, we have go over there, i have to go over there. In the muscular military world, she was a commander who cared. I was like, what are you doing . She says, im writing birthday cards to all my soldiers. Her husband, a charming sergeant and devoted dad. He was just as loving and doting as lynn was. No one could believe it when this decorated officer was found dead in her own home. An Army Commander being murdered was unheard of. As usual the first suspect was the husband
