Leute brauche eure Hilfe.
@WAMUQD war ein Vorreiter in der Medienarbeit für unser Anliegen,
bis er ende JUli letzten Jahres von der Öffentlichkeit "verschwunden wurde!"
Seine Homepage wurde gelöscht und alle seine Videos aus youtube entfernt -
außer einem. Es war unter einem anderen Usernamen hochgeladen worden.
Nachdem es ende letzter Woche im yahoo-board Erwähnung fand, ist auch dieses letzte Video von WAMUQD verschwunden. ( es hatte da, wenn ich mich recht erinnere, um die 15k Aufrufe)
Ich habe gehört, dass das internet nichts vergessen soll....dann sollte es auch noch irgendwo sein!
Unter dieser Adresse war es zu finden:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6Sxji6x118
Wer kann das Video wieder ausgraben?
oder wer hat von früher Kopien? von welchen Beiträgen? von WAMUQD selbst abgespeichert?
Wenn euch das im offenen Board zu heikel ist, gerne auch per BM.
ob aus welchem grund derjenige weg ist oder auch nicht, wenn man seine eigenen entscheidungen trifft. meine entscheidung steht zumindest fest.
bis zum ende

Washington Mutual Bank’s failure, the biggest in U.S. history, won’t result in criminal charges against its former executives, U.S. Attorney Jenny A. Durkan in Seattle said.
A federal investigation of the bank’s collapse included hundreds of interviews and a review of millions of documents concerning its operations, Durkan and the Justice Departmentsaid yesterday in an e-mailed statement.
“The evidence does not meet the exacting standards for criminal charges in connection with the bank’s failure,”according to the statement.
The bank, the operating unit of Washington Mutual Inc., was seized by regulators on Sept. 25, 2008, and sold to JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) for $1.9 billion. The bank had more than 2,200 branches and $188 billion in deposits. The following day, the parent company filed for bankruptcy.
Former U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Sullivan in Seattle, citing“intense public interest” in the bank’s failure, said in October 2008 that his office had created a task force working with investigators from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Internal Revenue Service to investigate its collapse.
Andrew C. Irgens, a lawyer representing Washington Mutual Inc. in its bankruptcy case, didn’t immediately return a call and e-mail seeking comment after regular business hours yesterday.
Federal prosecutors continue to cooperate with the FDIC in a lawsuit against three former Washington Mutual executives, according to yesterday’s statement.
In that case, the FDIC accuses former Washington Mutual Inc. (WAMUQ) Chief Executive Officer Kerry Killinger, former Chief Operating Officer Stephen Rotella and David Schneider, the bank’s former home-loans president, of taking extreme risks with the bank unit’s home-loans portfolio, causing billions of dollars in losses.
The FDIC accuses the executives of disregarding the bank’s long-term safety and fixating on rewarding themselves. The men received more than $95 million in compensation from January 2005 to September 2008, according to the suit.
In its bankruptcy case in Wilmington, Delaware, WaMu is seeking approval for a reorganization plan that would pay creditors more than $7 billion. Shareholders have asked U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Mary Walrath to reject the reorganization plan for a second time because they would get nothing.

Seattle Times vom Freitag, 05.08.2011
The executives who led Washington Mutual to ruin won't face any federal criminal charges for their actions leading up to the thrift's failure nearly three years ago.
U.S. Attorney Jenny Durkan's office issued a statement Friday afternoon that it was closing its investigation into WaMu's collapse, the largest bank failure in the nation's history.
"Based upon its investigation, the Department of Justice has concluded that the evidence does not meet the exacting standards for criminal charges in connection with the bank's failure," Durkan said in the statement.
Through a spokeswoman, Durkan declined to comment further on her decision to close the investigation, citing Justice Department policy.
Her announcement continues a pattern that has marked the aftermath of the financial crisis: To date, only one person — Goldman Sachs mortgage trader Fabrice Tourre — has been criminally charged for actions during the subprime mortgage bubble, the collapse of which triggered the deepest recession in decades.
The probe, which began before WaMu was seized by federal banking regulators in September 2008 but was only made public a month afterward, involved "hundreds" of interviews and "millions" of documents, the statement said.
At least seven federal agencies, as well as the state Department of Financial Institutions, participated in the investigation. Investigators also reviewed the results of several other inquiries into WaMu's failure, including reports by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, the Treasury Department's Office of Inspector General, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
Barry Kaplan, a Seattle attorney who represents former WaMu Chief Executive Kerry Killinger, said via email that he had no comment on the decision.
Friday's announcement cleared away more of the legal uncertainty that has dogged Killinger and other former WaMu leaders since the thrift ran aground.
Last month, a group of pension plans, investment funds and individual investors agreed to settle the class-action lawsuit they had brought against WaMu's former top executives and directors, as well as the thrift's audit firm and the underwriters who had marketed its securities.
The executives and directors — or rather, WaMu's insurers on their behalf — agreed to pay $105 million to settle the suit, which alleged WaMu and the people who ran it violated federal securities laws by pursuing a high-risk mortgage-lending strategy while telling investors its lending standards and risk controls would protect it from borrowers' defaults.
The audit firm, Deloitte & Touche, agreed to pay $18.5 million. The underwriters collectively agreed to pay $85 million. U.S. District Judge Marsha Pechman gave preliminary approval to the settlement on July 24; a final hearing has been set for Nov. 4.
Mary Fan, a former federal prosecutor who now teaches criminal law at University of Washington, said prosecutors looking into the banks, mortgage lenders, securities firms and other businesses that fed the financial crisis have found it extremely difficult to gather enough evidence to make criminal cases against any of their leaders.
Prosecutors largely have been unable to "ladder up," or use lower-level people within a company to get evidence against higher-level people. That, Fan said, has made it hard to establish the executives had the necessary "culpable mental state."
Making a criminal fraud case, for instance, requires proving intent to defraud and knowledge of falsity.
"It's really hard to pin down proof of individual criminally culpable knowledge or intent," Fan said. "It's not just, 'Gosh, you really should have known.' [Prosecutors] have to prove that you did know, you did intend to defraud people."
In addition, she said, criminal cases have to be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, a higher standard than civil suits. That helps explain why the one remaining major case pending against WaMu's former leaders is a civil suit filed in March by the FDIC.
That suit accuses Killinger, former WaMu Chief Operating Officer Stephen Rotella, and David Schneider, former head of WaMu's home-loans division, of "gross mismanagement."
The agency claims that the men recklessly pushed WaMu into making billions in high-risk home loans, despite knowing the nation was in an unprecedented housing bubble and being warned the company was unprepared to handle that level of risk.
Killinger's wife, Linda, and Rotella's wife, Esther, also are named in the suit, accused of helping their husbands transfer homes and cash into trusts to keep them out of creditors' hands.
After settlement talks fell apart last month, the defendants petitioned Judge Pechman to dismiss the suit, saying the law shields them from personal liability for "business decisions made in good faith, on an informed basis, and absent fraud or dishonesty." A ruling on that motion is expected sometime this fall.
