"Occupy Goldman Sachs" protesters have encamped around the corner from the New York City apartment building where Goldman Sachs Chief Executive Officer Lloyd Blankfein lives. This image was taken hours after a federal judge sentenced a former Goldman Sachs director to two years in prison in an insider trading case. Indian American businessman Rajat Gupta, 63, was also ordered to pay a $5 million fine. He is the most prominent figure in an investigation into Wall Street corruption that has yielded more than 70 convictions. Gupta was convicted of four counts of conspiracy and securities fraud. The sentence was less than recommended in federal sentencing guidelines.
