In a shocking display of leniency, two high-ranking executives behind the largest Ponzi scheme in Georgia's history have been handed relatively light prison sentences. The scheme, which conned thousands of unsuspecting victims out of millions of dollars, has left a trail of financial devastation and emotional trauma in its wake.
