Four years ago on September 15, the New York investment bank Lehman
Brothers declared bankruptcy and the financial collapse of 2008 began.
The economic meltdown wiped out more than $11bn of personal wealth in
the US, threw millions out of work, and has already resulted in the
foreclosure of more than 10 million homes.
Americans across the political spectrum believe that financial
executives should have gone to jail for the practices that led to the
collapse, but there have been no significant prosecutions.
Now we investigate why Wall Street has not been held accountable for crimes
connected to the deepest recession since the Great Depression.
