Fate Of 5 Ex-Madoff Employees To Soon Be In Jury’s Hands

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – The prosecution wraps up closing statements in the trial against five former aides to Ponzi schemer Bernard Madoff.

As WCBS 880?s Irene Cornell reported, a federal prosecutor gets the final word after days of closing arguments from the attorneys for all five defendants.

Madoff’s former secretary, his former head of operations, an account manager and two computer programmers are on trial.
