I don't think Lampert did anything criminal.

He was the CEO of the company and steered it into bankruptcy, then later made a bid to buy it out of bankruptcy at a discount because he wanted its parts. You're going to tell me that's not a little fishy, at the very least? It seems to me that he had ZERO interest in that company surviving.

So you think Lampert wanted Sears to fail so he could personally benefit?

I think he milked it for all it was worth.

But, running a company poorly, and for personal benefit, generally isn't, at least using the last 20 years as a guide, considered enough for a perp walk.

Now, civil liability from pissed off shareholders and debtholders? Absolutely
