California attorney general investigating Wells Fargo on allegations of criminal identity theft
By James Rufus Koren @ The LA Times
The California Department of Justice is investigating Wells Fargo & Co. on allegations of criminal identity theft over its creation of millions of unauthorized accounts, according to a search warrant sent to the bank’s San Francisco headquarters this month.
The warrant and related documents, served Oct. 5 and obtained by The Times through a public records request, confirm that California Atty. Gen. Kamala Harris, in the final weeks of a run for U.S. Senate, has joined the growing list of public officials and agencies investigating the bank in connection with the accounts scandal.
Harris’ office demanded the bank turn over a trove of information, including the identities of California customers who had unauthorized accounts opened in their names, information about fees related to those accounts, the names of the Wells Fargo employees who opened the accounts, the names of those employees’ managers and emails or other communication related to those accounts.
Her office is also requesting the same information about accounts opened by Wells Fargo workers in California for customers in other states.
There isn't near enough jail space for everyone involved in this.

Justice has NOTHING to do with this. This is ONLY about transferring $$$$ from Wells Fargo to Kalifornia in the form of fines, penalties and settlements.
Kamala the Kommie Harris doesn't give a shit about anything but her ego, power and control over others. This is just a chance for her to gain more power and smack capitalism around.
It's about goddam time somebody finally figured out that Welles Fargo is every bit as crooked as is Hil-LIAR-y Clinton. Welles Fargo can be trusted not quite as far as I can throw a seriously pissed off rodeo bull.
