Death is too good for him : Bernie Madoff s death reopens wounds for victims Erik Ortiz
Stephanie Halio was watching television Wednesday morning at her home in Boca Raton, Florida, when the face of the man who she says turned her life into a nightmare flashed on the screen.
She quietly absorbed the news: Bernie Madoff, the convicted Wall Street swindler who orchestrated the largest Ponzi scheme in financial history, had died in prison at age 82. I m really sorry he died, said Halio, 78. I couldn t wish enough bad things on him. I m sorry he died, because I would have wanted him to stay in prison for 100 years.
