Turns out Ponzi-scheming a**hole Bernard Madoff comes from a long line of dirtbags who’ve run afoul of the law. Take mother Sylvia and father Ralph, for instance.
These two shining gems of humanity did more than just produce our friend Bernard. They managed to rack up quite an impressive federal record themselves. Complete with sexy stuff like securities fraud, tax evasion, and all the other sleazy Madoff-y money schemes you’d expect from the original hell-pair that brought us Bernie.
Too bad both Sylvia and Ralph Madoff died in the 1970s.
They would’ve been so proud of their little Bernie!
