In May 2010, Martha Stewart gave an interview to the New York Times magazine in which she was asked, "Do you find it odd that the SEC investigated you for insider trading, which resulted in your conviction in 2004, while letting a sociopath like Bernie Madoff run unchecked?"   (Mr. Madoff ran a $50 billion Ponzi scheme).
