The numbers are a bit over the place, ranging from 12.5 billion to 44 billion.
I feel the number should stop mattering to the penalty well before 1B in fraud.
Yeah it was just that the more liberal the news outlet, the higher the number lol
the 44 billion is the total amount of loans she'd given herself and her proxies via her illegal control of the bank. 27 billion is the amount she's supposed to return to avoid death. No idea what the 12.5 number is but it seems to have come from the AP as the amount she embezzled, so maybe that's the amount she took personally, rather than it going to allied companies and such?
