Here's a few possibilities:
Raines filed false documents (a crime).
Claimed he was still owed salary to June 2005---in his diseased mind he was still CEO.
Withdrawal symptoms?
Who knows what goes on in the mind of greedy corrupt Clintonistas like Raines.
Well, if what he did was illegal, someone really should look into it....
The number of crimes committed here are extensive:
The extent of Raines’ subsidiary interests in financial structuring of federal tax grants and whether Raines conspired to allocate tax assets to friends, family and insiders (that's an easy one to find).
As far as the "charitable foundation," the IRS is investigating foundations as major money-laundering machines. There are numerous ways they can steal, illegally convert, then launder money in these foundations.
Raines, and other federal employees who are bonded should incur imprisonment, fines, or other criminal penalties for lying on bonding applications.
Justice Dept. Opens Fannie Criminal Probe
Thursday September 30, 2004
NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Justice Department has opened an investigation of possible accounting fraud at Fannie Mae, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday, after a federal regulator said the mortgage giant may have manipulated its earnings targets.
The Journal reported that the investigation is still in the preliminary stages. Fannie has been under fire since the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight, or Ofheo, accused the company of improper accounting that allowed senior executives to pocket multimillion-dollar bonuses.
According to the newspaper, officials have said that some Fannie Mae executives may have misled regulators, which in some cases would be an added criminal offense. Because of the nature of Ofheo's disclosures, the Justice Department concluded that it demanded an investigation, the Journal added.
Ofheo referred its report to prosecutors last week, lawyers close to the case told the Journal. The regulator's report raised questions of possible accounting manipulations involving financial instruments used to hedge risk, and expensing of costs associated with the company's core business of buying home mortgages from lenders around the country.
No one was immediately available at Fannie Mae or the Justice Department to comment on Thursday.
