Court papers claim Bernie Madoff's Securities offices were fueled by cocaine, topless women
Source: NY Daily News

Bernie Madoff, cocaine kingpin?

New additions to a lawsuit against the jailed Ponzi schemer charge that he presided over an office so fueled by the drug that it was known as the "North Pole."

The suit, filed Tuesday night in Manhattan Supreme Court, alleges that Madoff, as far back as 1975, used two street toughs on his payroll to set up a cocaine pipeline into the offices of Madoff Securities.

It portrays the firm's headquarters as an animal house with "a culture of sexual deviance" that often hosted drug-fueled parties featuring topless waitresses who wore little more than G-strings.

In addition to Madoff, the suit, which was originally filed in June, adds a host of new corporate defendants, including JPMorgan Chase, KPMG, the Bank of New York, Oppenheimer and Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance.

It was hard stealing all of that money, i guess he he and his minions had to relax some kind of way.Can you visualize a workplace with all of the drugs and naked women that your little heart desires? No wonder nobody told on this guy.

2. Cocaine is the drug of choice for Wall Street!
Hence why they act like hyperactive, stuck-up pricks for corporatism.

10. Damn this corporate royalty bugs me!
Heard inside info that Angelo Mozillo, the former CEO of Countrywide, had a HUGE palacial office when he was CEO then, that subsequently got "remodeled" after the Bank of America execs moved in and said "This won't do" when they saw the obscenity of that office space.
