Jon Corzine's Family Responds To Accusations Against The Patriarch
First appearing in Vanity Fair:, in response to Jon Corzine's riskiest business.
The sweeping negative narrative the authors use to describe our family in “Jon Corzine’s Riskiest Business” [by Bryan Burrough, William D. Cohan, and Bethany McLean, February] completely contradicts our firsthand experience of events and people.
We have never been estranged from our father, nor do we recognize the motives you ascribed to him in politics and business. The father we know ran for public office because of a lifelong desire to give back to society as well as a love of the political process and a passion to be a progressive Democrat. Our family, friends, and former business colleagues hold the same view. Though we disagree with your analysis of him and find your sources, often referred to as close friends, dubious at best, not to mention nameless, we understand judgments about public figures come with the territory.
What does not come with the territory in our minds are reckless allegations and assertions involving private personalities such as the ones you chose to propagate toward our mother, Joanne. Your portrayal of her is the opposite of who we know her to be. The subjective descriptions of her character based on quotes from anonymous “friends” is the elevation of gossip to legitimate reporting. The assertion regarding her becoming “close” to David Tepper is a blatant falsehood. She has never met or spoken to David Tepper. Our mother was an involved member of the Summit, New Jersey, community for almost 30 years and had built lifelong friendships. Our childhood home was not cold but warm and loving. Our mother tried to create as normal a life as possible for us. She taught us, by example, how to live a private and productive life.

Next, it is turn for the families of the thousands of people whose money was stolen by MF Global (and apparently Fabrice Tourre, since nobody at MF Global was responsible for anything... or else it just vaporized) to send in their letters.

"I simply do not know where the money is"
lynch the whole effin family!
First we had Growing Up Gotti, now it's time for Growing Up Corzine
This will be good for 2 seasons easily.
Its all fun and games till the phones are ringing 3am with nothing but heavy breathing at the other end
This family should be in fucking hiding.
His Honor(able) lost the money!!! Doesn't know where it is!!!
Cry me a fucking river!
and to post their names? Gimme a fuckin' brek!
a lifelong desire to give back to society as well as a love of the political process and a passion to be a progressive Democrat.....
Sniff.... Somebody please give me a kleenex and a billion kazillion dollar parachute!
Got away with it in this world. Good luck going forward Jon.
They should take the route of Madoff's kid!
"Congressman, I really don't know what happened to the money...."
I always knew Jon Corzine was incompetent. Never thought he'd say it on national TV.
MORON.
IMHO, we will end up having a revolution with this shit (aka Jewish Banking Mafia) nowhere to run.
MF Global customer account money, like Andy Dufresne, "up and disappeared like a fart in the wind" [as the warden tosses a chiseled chess piece at the poster of Rita Hayworth (aka Sugar Britches), revealing the tunnel Andy had taken years to dig with a single, tiny rock hammer].
Up & Disappeared Like a Fart In The Wind, Bitchez!

#TheImportantThingIsThatJonCorzineIsFree
They live in Brooklyn, huh?
Uprooted family interviewed via skype from Paraguay.
Backclaw any profit from Jon Corzine to his family members.
Don't they know? Corzine is the new Madoff.....
any corzines buying a noose?
good thing that his wife Sharon M. Elghanayan is a psychotherapist
Sugar britches was Raquel Welch, not Rita Hayworth.
+1 on that correction
Oh, so even when the perpetrator is some combination of Dutch/English/French/Italian (http://www.nytimes.com/2000/04/09/nyregion/around-jon-corzine-s-roots-a-...) you can still attribute his actions to the Jews.
I guess it's equally safe to say that even if you eventually manage to utter something intelligent, there'll be no reason to assume it's not still coming from a complete douche/idiot.
Hey, it's your reasoning.
Pladizow said:
Now that would be giving back to society.
@ Corzine family:
I admire you for your bravery but, deep inside, you know that your dad is just a common thief who steals not because of need, but just because he knows people. he is now shoping for a castle in France, a chalet in Chamonix and a summer home in Juan la Pin, while you are fending off the slings and arrows of vox populi.
He actually stole from you also: Your freedom and your peace of mind and burdened you with guilt.
If you want your life back, make him return the money. Life is too short and guilt will drive you psychotic and your life will be unbearable.
Chamonix IS in france.
Who said it was'nt?
Quote from Jon Corzine's wife:
Corzine "let his family down, and he'll probably let New Jersey down, too."
Need to expand that circle of disappointment a bit.
I usually wouldn't think the punishment for a father's crime will be laid upon his family as well. But, more poppycock like this from them, and all bets are off. ...especially when they will be living the life of international oligarchs with the money their daddy stole through elaborately planned "losses" of miney outright stolen from others on bets to international trusts and corporations he just happens to own. ...hypothetically of course.
Re. poppycock like this from them
I wonder.
Is it really from "them"?? Is there a video of them signing? A press conferense?
Maybe they saw what happened to Bernie's kid?
a love of the political process and a passion to be a progressive Democrat
Progressive Democrat = Fascist

They say that like it's NOT an indictment!!
If my name were Corzine, I'd be looking for some of this:
http://www.bulletproofme.com/Ballistic_Clothing.shtml
They will slack off on security details sometime in the next ten years. I predict one or more of them get chopped up and fed to fishes when they let their guard down.
I hope they keep their names in the newspapers and on peoples' minds.
you parasites and the "father you know" need to die a very slow painful death as slow as possible as painful as possible FUCK YOU!
still waiting for that terminal marine sniper to start picking off bankers mark my word it will happen YOU ARE NOT SAFE ASS HOLES (why do you think obarry keeps giving bennies to vets rather than the rest)
KEEP DRINKING THAT PISS
Obammy is proposing to cut the bennies for the troops, their families and Vets, while keeping bennies intact for civilians.....
This shit will not be tolerated well
Bill "The Bomber" Ayers and family walk the streets daily after killing people and stating that he would do it again. You could be correct though as Corzine's victims are Big Money and they have a way to punish.
A lot of people get killed in the Banana Republic of America. Even big people. What happened to the former head of the CIA - William Colby??
o http://www.pythiapress.com/wartales/colby.htm
o http://theamericanchronicle.blogspot.com/2010/02/who-killed-william-colb... <-- Makes ZH reference. Good riddance to Marla. Agreed.
Corzine kids should remember what happened to Madoff kid. Just sayin'...
Great example.
Corzine himself will never rest. The collective hate of so many people sends enough karma to destroy him. He will rot from the inside.
you assume jon has a conscience -- interesting, a politician with a conscience. who woulda thought -- and in 2012?
How can a giant pile of shit rot anymore?
Hate Schmate. Hang him from a tree.
You can take daddy away....but please leave the money.
John Corzine .. meet my freind of mine Louisville slugger
Jon Corzine epitomizes everything that's wrong with American business and politics. He's corrupt. He's a criminal. He will probably walk free because of his connections.
Fuck him for what he did and who he is, and fuck his family for going public with this little half-hearted, bullshit rant and for living high on the hog as a result of his abuses.
bop...........................................
Take the money away first...
Tell the Corzine family, actions speak louder than words.
Look what happened to Gotti. They all get it in the end.
Answer: People in need of an ass raping.
Question: Who are the Corzine family?
there's a special place in hell reserved for jon-jon, where he'll spend eternity getting his fudge packed by a gigantic porcupine monster
There isn't. That's why we need to punish him on Earth asap.
a kid can dream, can't he?
hey Jim Morrison...I agree with you!
hahahahahaha! Who the fuck is the DAD!! hahaha
omg thats hilarious
Haha! Perfect.
You would think someone would have counseled them not to put themselves out there this way. Forgive them for being poor judges of their own father's character. But thinking children should know better than to attempt publicly to rehabilitate such a complete moral failure or a man. Cherish your personal memories quietly, knowing all future first impressions of your father will be tainted.
If they attempt to stay in the public eye it is going to send someone over the edge.
I'm amazed, that after all the lives he's ruined, nobody has taken a shot at him.
Agree....also Bernie Madoff and especially the Enron folks....in Texas you could probably have a jury acquit you under the crime of passion loophole if you went postal and shot every last one of those crooks. A jury with a few of the former Enron pensioneers would also seek to re-imburse you for your time and costof ammo.
You would think that there might be a few terminally ill gun owners who got shafted by one of these guys, but apparently not. It is really amazing.
...and then draw and quarter them and spread their limbs to the 4 corners of manhattan as a warning. turnabout is fair play. Fraud is a form of terrorism and violence that is reprehensible. For these demon spawn of Corzinski to defend dear old dad is a farce and should be expected. He probably paid them with MF global ill gotten gains to do it. whatever happened to clawbacks?
Off with their heads!
"It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is."

Crap still makes me laugh
Yep, I can imagine Jon Porcine at his trial:
Court: "that's a
misdemeanor Mr. Corzine'
corzine to his jury,"I have tried oral sexbut I swear I never swallowed!"
I know where the money is. I serve my masters well.
So Kyle Bass was right after all: http://www.armadamarkets.com/market-info/videos/
Kyle Bass remains as one of the most lucid, articulate, and courageous men out there today. If per impossibile Ron Paul were to become president, It would be great to see Kyle Bass prominent in his administration.
Best mummy & daddy ever....
BMW's for the kids
Best private schools
Best ski resorts in the world
$50,000 credit cards for the kids
Best island vacations for the spring break
So....what's not to like??
All on OPM as usual!!
Too fucking bad we don't currently have a repuke prez, then this fucktard supreme would be on the demonfucks campaign trail.
Campaign... Hmmm. interesting term.. CAMP PAIN.. I get it now.
Thley should publish in the Vanity Fair the letters and stories of people who lost their money and even their businesses because of the "vanishing money".
Meanwhile at the cayman Is ranch...things is reckless
When you "lose" a billion in customer funds, how do you explain that to your family? Either they're all crooks like you or you become an exile if you refuse to accept responsibility.
David Tepper was a victim! Everyone has his own style of taking revenge.
Here's a style that some customers endorse...
http://fred93mfg.blogspot.com/2012/02/mf-global-victims-give-preet-bharara.html
the family doesn't have a stake in this, nah, can't be
I think they are talking up their own book............... just like Warren Baffooooonnnnnnn
The problem is he steals 99x as much as he gives.
Well, everyone needs desire in some fashion in order to get out of bed in the morning.
One for you, ninety-nine for me is a pretty damn good ratio, if you can pull it off.
It's the Gift of Bankruptcy.
"The money has vaporized"
Jon Corzine, drinking $10K wine from his Villa Estate in the Principality of Monaco
The Corzine strut:
http://biosocket.com/wp-content/uploads/corzine-strut.png
Haters gonna hate!
There aren't too many "villa estates" in Monaco...unless you include the mountain slopes as the back 40.
Corzine is just evil.
And Monaco is a slum compared to the homes at Carmel by the Sea.
Oh when will rich, powerful people learn to keep their mouths shut during times of great upheaval - which usually they had the greatest hand in creating. It almost always leads to their downfall. Some lessons never get tired of being taught I suppose. Keep yapping.
Let us review the dozen or so things that make Corzine & Co. untouchable in America.
1. He's a former Goldman CEO
2. Former US Senator
3. Former US Governor
4. Friends in the CFTC
5. Friends in the SEC
6. Friends at the FED
7. His crime involves stealing over $1,000,000
8. His crimes are too complicated for average US citizens to understand
9. Wealth transfer is deemed more outrageous when the lower class is the recipient
10. An investigation that runs too deep could disturb markets
11. He's a lead Obama fundraiser
12. And he's .............
Tickhound, you could have stopped at #1 and made your point
That's right, remember he's old now. He didn't have time to go back to Goldman, work his way back to the top and slowly slip those $ out of people pockets while nobody was looking. So he took a few shortcuts, went to MF Global and aba cadabra, $1.2 billion gone.
I for one think 12 is the most important point. If you are wide-eyed enough to know it.
#12 intertwines with 1-11.........no doubt about it.
He smells of elderberries?
has small hands and smells like cabbage?
His father was a hamster?
Thanks, I was wondering why he walks and Madoff is in jail. Very clear now....so when do we get the guillotines out? Getting to be a long wait.
Plus Madoff committed a terrible blunder... His crimes were too #12 on #12.
" $1,500,000,000
There.....fixed it for you......
Think in these terms... "If you steal $1,000, it's a felony. If you steal $1,000,000 you're a fucking hero"
This list implies his clients didn't do their due diligence.
j0nx asked:
Probably right about the time they feel the noose tighten.
Put all JCs in prison.
they were all named like a litter of puppies!?
Yes, and now they should act like Hush puppies.
aristocracy bitchez!
FUCK THESE MOTHERFUCKERS
Allen will keep a bunk warm for you Jon.
LOL You should have seen how fast that little Stanford Eagle got ripped off the front of old Al's building after he got arrested.
I always used to chuckle when I drove by there in the Galleria.
Maybe Allen can punch Corzine a few times so he too gets amnesia before the big trial.
Poor Al didn't have the same connections ol Johnny does, so that's why he's actually serving in the crowbar hotel.
Nothing will change until one of these fuckin sociopaths head is blown the fuck off...bankers ...death to you all.....
My only thought..
Czar Nicholas II
Nick was killed by a Jewish deathsquad. This time, other way 'round.
Fucking unbelievable, you can't make this shit up. Fuck Corzine.
Arent they pathetic?
They have the whole trading community laughing at them now.
Jon Corzine should be swinging from a lampost!
not before being tarred and feathered

>Your portrayal of her is the opposite of who we know her to be.
I hear jeff dahlmer was quite the chamer too.
gj David! Jon deserves it ...
So he wanted to be a thief, quote a passion to be a progressive Democrat., and he got caught, so how is that different from what Vanity Fair said?
Say kids? Where IS daddy, by the way?
Douchebag
I hope he gets nut cancer.
i hear that butt cancer is worse
Madoff kids said the same ...
"Lifelong desire to give back to society"
What Au said.....no sense in being repetitious.
What a joke.
oh for gods sake, all his kids names begin with 'J'. All of them J.C. Now that is creepy.
You don't have to redo the embroiydered inheritance.
Wife too.
corzine family - "let them eat cake(s)?"
Cakes laced with Strychnine!
Shame he didn't have three more children - he might have given consideration to naming them Jerk, Joke, and Jism.
We have never been estranged from our father, nor do we recognize the motives you ascribed to him in politics and business. The father we know ran for public office because of a lifelong desire to give back to society as well as a love of the political process and a passion to be a progressive Democrat.
Yes, well John Wayne Gacy was thought to be a kind fun loving person too.
So, we should always use Jon Stevens Corzine...you know, the criminal form of his name.
How many hundreds of millions of dollars must one steal and then lose in order to be called "Honorable"?
$1.2 Billion - guy should be running for the senate.
How many hundreds of millions of dollars must one steal and then lose in order to be called "Honorable"?
The jury is still out on that number (though it's at least 12).
