His extreme orangeness, former CEO and founder of Countrywide Home Loans Angelo Mozilo, is about to be slapped with civil fraud charges, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The WSJ says that the SEC has already informed Mr. Orangeface of their intention to file insider trading and disclosure violations.
Other Countrywide executives, including former president David Sambol are also about to have very bad days.

Sweet…I wonder if I can get my interest back from Countrywide. He has to use that spray on tan shit. he really is orange.
Spray tan? With what he made? The man either eats gold or Oompa Loompas.
@KyleOrton: I vote Oompa Loompas, and by the way that made me snort root beer out of my nose.
Tangelo Mozilo go to jail will never happen. Probably get a $1 fine from the SEC and be back on the yellow brick road.
@laserjobs: After they give him the squeeze.
you know, cause he’s orange? ….. *sigh*
@laserjobs: At least going into hiding isn’t an option for him. You could see that color orange from orbit.

He reminds me of the big-foreheaded aliens from the MST3K Movie ‘This Island Earth’
And when they go after the Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac execs I’ll believe they really mean business.
/not holding my breath
I think he has too many politicians phone numbers saved on his cell phone to go to jail. Unless he slaughters and eats a family of four but even then he might get off on a stress related defense…
On the other hand, after the Madoff fiasco, I don’t think the SEC is going to settle for wrist slaps and 15 minutes in the time out corner.
Wait, I thought guys like him were above the law?
That greedy criminal. Damn! He even looks like a Mafia guy.
He’s had plenty of time to set up offshore accounts and buy a private island. If the heat gets too hot, bet he’ll ‘mysteriously disappear’.
Even if they do indict him, they’ll never get all the $.
Good lord keep that man out of the tanning salon
