Madoff s death, reportedly of natural causes, is a sobering reminder of the investor-protection shortfalls that persist more than a decade after his fraud was exposed, according to investor advocates.

But occasionally a crook slips through the cracks sometimes in dazzling fashion.
Matthew Piercey, a broker from Palo Cedro, California, who pleaded guilty to co-running a $35 million Ponzi scheme, tried fleeing the FBI in November by using a submersible to hide underwater.
Some have gone so far as trying to fake their own death. About a decade ago, Marcus Schrenker, an Indiana advisor and pilot, did so by crashing a plane in Florida after parachuting to safety and then speeding away on a motorcycle to avoid prosecution for allegedly stealing $1.5 million from clients.
Yuras Zyankovich, who used to be a regional leader of the opposition Belarusian Popular Front (BNF) party and once sought to be its presidential candidate, has been living in the United States since 2007.
He is a graduate of Fordham University s School of Law in New York and is permanently based in Houston, Texas. Zyankovich frequently visits Belarus and actively takes part in the country s political life.
On April 12, the day of Zyankovich’s detention in Moscow, a noted Belarusian political analyst, Alyaksandr Fyaduta, went incommunicado in the Russian capital, where he works as a media consultant.
Moscow police said at the time that they had started looking for him after his relatives raised concerns about his whereabouts.
