Comment on Ex-bank CEO gets 24 years after falling for crypto scam, causing bank collapse

Ok so I decided to read into this a little more. On FDICs website it says all customer funds should be available backing up my assumption that no customer of the bank lost any money: www.fdic.gov/resources/…/heartlandtristate.html

That contradicts statements on arstechnica.com/…/ex-bank-ceo-gets-24-years-after…

Victims may never fully recover losses, DOJ says

In the community, people are still struggling to recover, Mitchell told NBC News, noting that some people lost up to 80 percent of their retirement savings. For at least one woman, retirement is impossible now, Mitchell said, and for another local woman, it has become difficult to pay for her 93-year-old mother’s nursing home.

US Attorney Kate E. Brubacher said that it’s hard to say when or if victims will be made whole again.

But it seems like they didn’t let it fail completely and transferred all assets and most liabilities to Dream First Bank? That would be nice for the granny with more than 250K in the account.
