BCCI (1991): A fraud investigation revealed that the bank laundered massive amounts of money for criminal enterprises and had unlawfully gained control of First American Bankshares, a major American bank. Morgenthau claimed jurisdiction on two counts—not only did First American have a subsidiary in New York, but millions of the laundered dollars had flowed through Manhattan. The bank was seized by federal regulators shortly before Morgenthau indicted it for what he described as "the largest bank fraud in world financial history."[25] Its liquidators ultimately pleaded guilty to all charges and forfeited all of the bank's American assets
Jackson Stephens Sr. is a big-money man from Arkansas. A top donor to the Reagan and George H.W. Bush campaigns, he suddenly switched to Clinton in 1990. He brought BCCI to US shores in 1979 and helped to launder coc aine profits from CIA drug smuggling in Mena, Arkansas and elsewhere.
For more than 35 years, I've been a "Hired Gun", successfully extracting and separating banks from some of their money. Well, I guess a better way of putting it would be that I've been employeed by some of the finest bank computer software and service providers for the past three and a half decades and have thus managed to eke out a reasonably comfortable existance for myself and family.

Drug smuggling in the '90's could have also easily evolved or spun off into insurance/prescription fraud through CIA/Political...and Organized crime collaboration in NY.

Osgood-Hutchinson is still in my mind to look closer at. My last look at it left me feeling it's an LLC created for one purpose -- purchasing Chelsea's apartment.
But I will continue to keep it in mind as I poke around.

The U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York is the chief federal law enforcement officer in eight New York counties: New York (Manhattan), Bronx, Westchester, Putnam, Rockland, Orange, Dutchess, and Sullivan. Preet Bharara, who was appointed by Barack Obama in 2009[1] is the U.S. Attorney for the District.

Prosecutorial support will come from various U.S. Attorneys Offices — a major departure from other centralized FBI investigations.
The New York-based probe is being led by Preet Bharara, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York. Bharara’s prosecutorial aggressiveness has resulted in a large number of convictions of banks, hedge funds and Wall Street insiders.

Putting this here, because it may support my contention earlier...key players are placed in positions to thwart investigations and prosecutions:

The U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York is the chief federal law enforcement officer in eight New York counties: New York (Manhattan), Bronx, Westchester, Putnam, Rockland, Orange, Dutchess, and Sullivan. Preet Bharara, who was appointed by Barack Obama in 2009[1] is the U.S. Attorney for the District.
And NOW he is the FBI director that found no criminal wrongdoing in Hillary's email server investigation.
Preet Bharara:
As U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, Bharara prosecutes some of the nation's high-profile terrorism and Wall Street cases. Since taking office in 2009, his U.S. attorney's office has been involved in cases regarding the Bernie Madoff scandal and Osama bin Laden's son in law. Bharara's office has cracked down on insider trading and successfully prosecuted a string of cases.
Loretta Lynch:
As U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of New York, Lynch is the top federal prosecutor for Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island and Nassau and Suffolk counties on Long Island. Her office led the investigation into Rep. Michael Grimm, R-N.Y., resulting in tax evasion and other charges. Lynch also served as U.S. attorney from 1991 to 2001 in the Clinton administration.

EXCLUSIVE: Joint FBI-US Attorney Probe Of Clinton Foundation Is Underway
Prosecutorial support will come from various U.S. Attorneys Offices — a major departure from other centralized FBI investigations.
The New York-based probe is being led by Preet Bharara, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York. Bharara’s prosecutorial aggressiveness has resulted in a large number of convictions of banks, hedge funds and Wall Street insiders.
Preet Bharara now has Comey's old job. And he is in charge of investigating the Clinton Foundation in New York.
Jesus, what a mess.

At a news conference announcing the charges against Ms. Stewart, James B. Comey, the United States attorney for the Southern District of New York, said, ''This criminal case is about lying -- lying to the F.B.I., lying to the S.E.C., lying to investors.'' Addressing a question that has long hovered over the investigation, he added, ''Martha Stewart is being prosecuted not for who she is, but because of what she did.''

Comey, however, was much more deferential to Mrs. Clinton. When President
Clinton commuted the sentences of four New Square rabbis after their village
voted 1200 to 14 for Hillary in her Senate race against Rick Lazio, the
ambitious prosecutor concluded it was all just an amazing coincidence.
The case against Clinton was dropped even though Comey reportedly uncovered
an eyewitness who said he saw the former first lady discussing the clemency
arrangements at a pre-election meeting - something Clinton had previously
insisted never happened when grilled by Pardongate probers.
Even more curiously, Comey took a pass on what looked to many like an
ironclad case of pardon selling by former first brother Roger Clinton, who,
when subpoenaed by Comey's team, simply declined to show-up.
During the final days of his presidency, Bill Clinton opted to reduce the prison terms of the New Square offenders, and after 9/11 that sparked an investigation. As Anderson notes, “Hillary received an unexpected gift in late June when, without explanation, U.S. Attorney James B. Comey closed the New Square clemency case.”
