I almost watched but changed my mind...

You are downplaying the tremendous effect his atrocious deeds had on the
people who lost their life savings....

No way does he get out for even 5 minutes. He's a lifer.

...they already know how Ponzi schemes work...

Didn't watch this, but really enjoyed the tv mini series with Richard Dreyfuss. It was very interesting, the rise and fall.

No—he is having too good a time in jail as it is from what I read because he has a certain cache because of stealing so much money for so long...

Put him to work cleaning toilets in hospitals for all I care but don’t treat his knowledge about how to con people with any special respect

I saw both Dreyfus and Di Nero’s shows about Madoff
Thought both were good

Recently, I read that he was beaten up badly by his fellow inmates. I do not think he is having such a good time.

I don' think the FBI needs him. They could ask any of his co-horts how they managed to carry out their duplicitous scam.
