      You're going to murder people over a $126MM fraud? I know you're trolling and will eventually be flagged and downvoted into oblivion, but come on; that's just absurd.

        That's not totally absurd if you think about it. Police regularly initiate high speed chases for bank robbers and the like, often for values far less than $1M. Of course, not every chase leads to a death, but I suspect if you do the math, the risk of a high speed chase is probably in the neighborhood of "JDAM for $126MM fraud".
