I wondered the same thing, Jim. These are egregious cases, yet the penalties are not particularly harsh, considering the circumstances.
The Broadway case was noteworthy because the bank pleaded guilty to criminal violations -- and the government is trying to determine whether to prosecute individual officers or employees. In both these two cases, however, the real lesson I take away is:
FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE! IF YOUR EMPLOYEES START COMPLAINING BECAUSE YOUR CUSTOMER IS DEPOSITING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF CASH -- WAGGING IT IN IN PAPER SACKS AND GYM BAGS, YOU NEED TO BE DAMN SURE THE SOURCE OF THE CASH IS LEGITIMATE, OR FILE SARs that are timely, complete, and properly descriptive.
