Will Ruth Madoff be indicted for fraud by the end of February?

Settled as No

No indictment of Ruth Madoff by the end of February

Background:

Background: Bernie and Ruth were married for nearly 50 years and according to the New York Times they were almost inseparable. A family friend tells the NYT:

“All I will say on the subject is that it’s hard to imagine that she could live with the guy for 50 years and have no inkling,” says Donald Rosenzweig, a childhood friend of Ruth’s and an investor in Madoff Investment Securities. “Could she attract people to him? Yes. Was she out there shilling for him? I doubt it. But maybe.”

Settlement details:As reported by a major mainstream news source.
