If FT were required to segregate funds (were they?), and this didn't happen, then we have incompetence at best.
Worse, if they were using these funds (float) to finance other business activities, then we are in the realm of fraud.
If FT pros are considered owners, and if the DOJ can show they acted like owners, reaped benefits like owners, etc., then clearly they are liable as
de facto owners for reimbursement, and quite possibly prosecution.
While all of that is speculation, one thing is crystal clear: the Full Tilt brand is being destroyed, and PS will benefit.
