For those of you who, like me, found the Galleon/Rajaratnam investigation and trial interesting, I highly recommend a new article in The New Yorker by George Packer (“A Dirty Business: Preet Bharara Takes on Wall Street Crime”). Packer writes in great detail about many of the players in the Rajaratnam trial (Raj, his co-workers, the SEC lawyers who developed the case, Bharara and the SDNY prosecutors, defense counsel, and more), and offers new insights into the case and its relationship to Wall Street and the financial crisis.
