The current sentence of Bernie Madoff almost guarantees that the disgraced financier will spend the rest of his life in prison.  The 150 year sentence was recently handed down in the courtroom, while many of the victims were present.

Many of the victims have said that they are happy with the verdict,  but it still will not bring back the billions of dollars that were all but stolen from many individuals and organizations from many different backgrounds.

It appears that more individuals will now begin to face charges related to the Ponzi scheme.  Those charges are likely to be announced at a later date.

Excentus Corp, a privately held company, has recently filed a patent infringement suit against Safeway. This patent infringement suit states that Safety wrongly used patents and other Excentus intellectual property in a gasoline based rewards program.

The suit states that Safeway attempted to acquire the patents, but when that failed it began infringing on them without permission.

The program rewards customers who shop at a grocery chain with free gasoline and other perks as part of a loyalty and rewards program.
