I think you have to look at that on a case-by-case basis. Lawyers like Mr. Caylor are very skilled at finding ways of trying to recover losses—not always from the offender. More often, you're looking at the accessories, the people around the offender. You probably are aware, for example, that there's ongoing litigation arising out of the Earl Jones case in Quebec.
What I had to do as the head of enforcement was make difficult choices. If a person who had stolen money from shareholders and who had done a very effective job of hiding it somewhere offshore was prepared to make a deal to pay back the victims, was I going to reject that offer out of hand? Was I going to simply say no, that I was going to stick to the purity of the principle and ignore the recovery?
There's no easy answer. I have a great deal of empathy for commercial prosecutors who are dealing with hundreds of people who have lost their life savings.
