Madoff did not do it alone.

That is the message prosecutors will pound home as five of Bernard Madoff’s long-time employees go on trial this week accused of enabling his $65 billion Ponzi scheme. Madoff pleaded guilty in 2009 to defrauding investors at Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC, which imploded in late 2008. He is serving a 150-year prison sentence.

Madoff said he acted alone, but prosecutors have since charged 15 of his associates.
