Will U.S. Bailout Minimize FBI Investigation Who Might Have Sold Fraudulent Loans & Securities?
Some U.S. lenders might have lowered their “own mortgage borrowers’ home values” by continuing to make sup-prime loans to unqualified borrowers in their community—after having “knowledge” the community had high numbers of mortgage defaults and foreclosures

U.S. Taxpayers are on the hook for $700 Billion to purchase Toxic mortgage loans and foreclosed homes from financial institutions.

U.S. Taxpayers need to ensure this Taxpayer Bailout is not used by Congress as a public-pacifier for the government not to prosecute big corporation executives and others determined by the FBI to have “knowingly” made profits from fraudulent home loans and mortgage-backed securities.

It is outrageous how may American and Foreign Citizens, banks, and retirement plans have been financially destroyed because they held interests in toxic mortgage loans. U.S. Politicians should not be allowed to obstruct the FBI seizing the ill-gotten gains of corrupt executives and or associates criminally or civilly proven to have defrauded home loan borrowers and purchasers of mortgage-backed securities.

At this moment Millions of Americans continue to see the value of their homes plummet while their mortgage loans—increasingly exceed the price a buyer will pay for their property.

Property in Rep. Harry Reid’s state Nevada has been so decimated in value, homeowners with “recourse mortgages” now fear Nevada banks will attach their income and assets to recover “lender losses” not recovered by foreclosure. Harry Reid might help Nevadans by asking the State Legislature to end “recourse mortgage collections” against Nevadans who occupied their foreclosed homes.

Some lenders might have lowered their “own mortgage borrowers’ home values” by continuing to make sup-prime loans to unqualified borrowers in their community—after having “knowledge” that the community had high numbers of mortgage defaults and foreclosures: “Property-damaged-homeowners” under such circumstances might have “standing” to pursue individual or class action lawsuits against their “own mortgage lenders” to recover part of their lost equity; or to stop a lender raising their (ARM) mortgage loan adjustable interest rate: Homeowners at large might have a cause of action for lost home value against lenders that—made a large percentage of sub-prime loans in their neighborhood after the lender had “actual knowledge” of the neighborhood’s existing high rate of loan defaults and foreclosures: homeowner damages might possibly include loss of property value; a homeowner can’t sell his or her house for what is owed on it; lender knew but never disclosed to borrower high number of sup-prime loans in default in neighborhood the lender was soliciting their client to mortgage property; subsequently homeowner’s credit is damaged or destroyed; lender made misrepresentations to borrower that fall “under state jurisdiction” when making mortgage loan(s) e.g. might allow mortgage borrower to apply state not federal law in an suit against lender; lender intentionally used inflated property appraisals in a neighborhood that caused subsequent home buyers to borrow more that a property was worth.

U.S. Government should aggressively investigate and prosecute mortgage lenders, stock and securities marketers, their executives, anyone who “knowingly” sold or facilitated fraudulent loans or mortgage-backed securities; sold securities they knew were backed by “INFLATED real estate appraisals or had actual knowledge a real estate loan borrower would likely default and did not disclose that fact to the purchaser of a mortgage loan.
