JPMorgan Chase CEO Could Face Jail Time

Despite the long list of violations already committed by JPMorgan Chase over the past several years, CEO Jamie Dimon added one more to the list. The executive explicitly violated a federal statute that has the potential to put him in jail for decades. The law violated can be found in Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which aimed to reform accounting practices and protect investors. RT’s Meghan Lopez asks William K. Black, associate professor of economics and law at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, why Dimon nor any other fraudulent have not been charged for their crimes.
