NEW YORK (Reuters) - Zvi Goffer could have passed for Tony Soprano when he warned confederates in his alleged insider-trading ring that "someone's going to jail."
Don't be too obvious about making big money, he said in a cell phone conversation intercepted by investigators in February 2008.
"Someone's going to jail, going directly to jail, so don't let it be you, OK?" Goffer said, according to a criminal complaint. "That's a ticket right to the (expletive) Big House."
