The number of "how much we hate Bernie Madoff" headlines have dwindled since his arrest in December of 2008, but the finger-pointing and curiosity over how he pulled off an estimated $65 dollar ponzi scheme remain.
FRONTLINE attempts to decode the secretive practices and associations that allowed Madoff’s colossal scheme to continue, undetected, for decades. The Madoff Affair, produced and written by Marcela Gaviria and correspondent Martin Smith, airs on FRONTLINE tonight on most PBS stations. Marcela Gaviria is with us to highlight some of the new revelations in the case.
