The U.S. government sold Ponzi schemer Scott Rothstein's 2BR/2BA residence in the Bloomberg building for $5.1 million, or $310,000 below asking. Rothstein, who ran a $1.2 billion investment scam, is currently spending time (50 years) at his Florida residence (federal penitentiary). It's possible buyers were turned off by news of Rothstein's penchant for raucous sex parties. [Observer]
