Former Anglo Irish Bank CEO Drumm arrested in Massachusetts
Former Anglo Irish Bank Chief Executive Officer David Drumm, who was seen as a culprit in Ireland's banking crisis, was arrested on Saturday in Massachusetts by U.S. marshals on an extradition warrant, according to the U.S. Attorney's office in the state.
Drumm will remain in custody until his hearing in federal court in Boston on Tuesday, said U.S. Attorney's office spokeswoman Christina Sterling.
Irish national broadcaster RTE reported in January that Ireland had sent an extradition file to the U.S. government, outlining charges to be prepared against Drumm by the Director of Public Prosecution on up to 30 different offenses.
The DPP, which has brought other Anglo Irish executives to trial, requested in July that a parliamentary inquiry into Irelands banking crisis not publish a statement Drumm had issued to it.

So what was Holder doing during his tenure ? I give him credit for trying protect voing rights act (which post 10' mid terms),but instead all we got were fines
You mean people can go to jail when they cause a problem ?
In the US bankers and wall st people don't go to jail
Whats even more pathetic is that more banker went to jail under the Bush administration than Obama's (really disappointing)
Jamie Dimon and POTUS are good pals so there would never be jail time no matter how JP Morgan chase does
