Report: Madoff Treated for Face, Rib Injuries

Disgraced financier Bernard Madoff was treated for facial fractures, broken ribs, and a collapsed lung at a hosptal, a Raleigh, N.C., TV station reported on its Web site on Thursday.


The injuries were consistent with an assault, the station reported, citing unidentified sources.


Madoff, 71, was treated at Duke University hospital late last week, after being taken initially to the prison hospital, and was discharged this week, the station reported.

But the hospital where Madoff reportedly was treated denied the story.

"There's been no patient at our hospital with that name," said Debbe Geiger, a Duke University Medical Center spokeswoman. She declined to comment further.

A Federal Bureau of Prisons spokeswoman declined to comment on the report, and Madoff's lawyer was not immediately available for comment.
On Wednesday, the prisons bureau confirmed Madoff had been moved to the prison's medical facility for undisclosed reasons last week.

Madoff is serving a 150-year sentence at Butner Federal Correctional Complex in North Carolina after pleading guilty to a $65 billion investment fraud that bilked thousands of investors worldwide.

Madoff's health has been a matter of speculation. In late August, the New York Post reported that he was diagnosed with cancer and was terminally ill, but prison officials denied the published report.

Some hero beat up a 71 year old guy ? Not quite in the same category with the guy who killed Jeffrey Dahmer.
Madoff is in prison for the same thing Congress is doing with impunity.

Radio said this story is bogus.  He went to the hospital for his high blood pressure.

 I'll stand by the SECOND part of my post then.  ;D
Just like Johnson and Hoffa, When Jimmy Hoffa stole from the Teamsters Pension fund he got A) a very good return on the investment, and B) several years in prison.
Johnson stole the ENTIRE social Security Trust fund and got A) No improvement in America from his "Great Society" welfare scam, and B) Libraries and airports named after him.
I guess it all depends on what profession you are a scumbag in.

Sorry Tom, I disagree. This SOB deserves a Dahmer more than Dahmer did. If it were just swindling a few rich, greedy, fools, fair enough. BUT he screwed over lots of middle class folks and charities as well. Folks thought they had a comfortable retirement and found out they were broke at 75. I worked with the Jewish Guild For The Blind in Palm Beach County. Its a great charity, that provides vocational training, text readers, seeing eye dogs etc., regardless of religious affiliation. He screwed them over as well. Lots of folks will be getting a no as their answer to their requests, and the donors got screwed also, so they can't step up. In a perfect world, Bernie Madoff would be released from prison tommorow with a clean record. Said release would occur at high noon on Christmas Day in Palm Beach and all the cops would be given holiday leave. This guy stole from hospitals, scholarship programs, and blind kids. Dahmer killed a few. Madoff denied the dreams of millions. Screw him.

Bernard Madoff in hospital with dizziness, high blood pressure
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS (CP) – 8 hours ago

BUTNER, N.C. — A lawyer for the hospitalized Bernard Madoff says his client has experienced dizziness and high blood pressure.

The Bureau of Prisons said Thursday that the 71-year-old disgraced financier remains under medical care for a seventh day.

Prison officials have declined to reveal why he was transferred from a North Carolina federal prison to a hospital. But bureau spokeswoman Traci Billingsley did say there have been no assaults at the prison in the past week.

Lawyer Ira Sorkin tells The Associated Press that Madoff has "had some dizzy spells and some high blood pressure."

Duke University Medical Center says Madoff was released Monday. Billingsley says he is now in a prison medical facility.

Madoff has been imprisoned since March after pleading guilty to fraud and admitting cheating thousands of investors out of billions of dollars.

If Madoff was really, really beat up, man, I would love it if someone had "snuck" a few cell phone pictures of him with a bloodied and bruised face.  Then posted those to the web.

Like the one Green Beret said in that same John Wayne film:  "NEWSPAPERS!  Ha!  You can fill volumes with what you don't read in them."
