"LONDON: The house of Fred Goodwin, the former chief executive of the ailing Royal Bank of Scotland, was vandalized early Wednesday and windows of his car were smashed.
Mr. Goodwin attracted criticism for keeping his £703,000, or $1 million, pension despite a string of ill-timed acquisitions under his tenure that brought the bank under government control and calls from Prime Minister Gordon Brown to surrender the payment.
At least three windows on the ground-floor level of his house in an affluent suburb of Edinburgh, Scotland, were smashed and a black Mercedes S600 parked in the driveway was vandalized."

From the last paragraph of the article:
"
Death threats and outrage aimed at recipients of $165 million in bonuses at the insurance giant American International Insurance in the United States was cited as one reason officials eventually decided not to release the names of the employees who received the money."
I should think naming these people might more easily assure they give the money back, and quickly. It's our money they're getting, why shouldn't we have a right to know who they are? So what if their Mercedes' get their window's broken?
Tough shit. You do the crime, you lose your windows.
