The introduction to this chapter discusses the case of Dennis Greer, an individual who became involved in a large-scale check kiting scheme. The fraud literature suggests that when an individual becomes involved in fraud (such as Dennis did), he or she should get the maximum punishment available. By doing so, other individuals who may consider committing fraud would be deterred from doing so. After reading Dennis's situation do you believe that he should receive the maximum punishment available? Or do you believe that his honesty (once the fraud was discovered), his unusually difficult circumstances, and repentant attitude should allow him to receive some leniency? Why or why not?
