On the day of the earnings release, Ms. Hoxie sent Mr. Sebbag an email stating "here is the bag that you are going to get for me," the SEC said in a companion civil complaint filed in New York federal court. It said the email included a link to "a picture of an expensive Stella McCartney designer handbag available for $700 at Neiman Marcus."
Mr. Sebbag allegedly replied that he would get her the bag "next week" and added, "I may be able to (buy) u 2 of them." To which she purportedly emailed back, "In that case, I also love love these shoes," and attached a link to a photo of Stella McCartney shoes at Neiman.
Come on, who doesn't LOVE shoes and the matching handbag. But wouldn't it be easier to just use her employee discount on one of those ADORABLE Dooney and Burke purses that they are selling over at DTD?

What morons!
Law enforcement and prosecutors must love these king of cases. The dopes involved hand you everything you need to make a case. In the sales game this is known as a blue bird as in, "The blue bird of happiness just flew in my window and dropped a purchase order for $1,000,000 on my desk."

I have heard the term "instant case" (just add prosecutor!)
