I worked at a bank for nearly a decade, and dealt with similar situations, although nothing near that amount. Investigations are extremely thorough, people don't usually get denied just because the bank felt like it.
One time we had fraud on an account that was a result of negligence by our branch. We had an account set up for a girl that suffered brain damage, and around the clock assistance. The money from the settlement was in a court appointed checking account, where funds could only be withdrawn with a written court order. The girl's dad made a withdrawal with a court order, and it was verified by the manager before the money was released. I guess he then started making more withdrawals with forged court orders, and no one verified them after the first one. This piece of shyt took all the money out, and spent it on his gambling addiction.
We ended up reimbursing the entire amount, because we fukked up. The dad went to jail.
Obviously, this isn't anything like Boosie's case. But it's difficult if not impossible for an institution to cover up for internal wrongdoing. Especially on financial matters, there is a paper trail for everything.
I don't know anything about what happened to Boosie. But I remember when my dad asked me to open an account for my uncle. He's the kind of person that doesn't trust anybody, is difficult to deal with, and isn't good with money or numbers.
I opened the account, and told him to come see me if he ever had any problems or questions. He never followed up with me, but I kept an eye on his money. After a while though, I kinda forgot. Less than a year later, my dad tells me that he closed his account, and was really mad at the bank. I looked up his account, and he went negative a bunch of times, and racked up some overdraft service charges. He never called me, I could've at least reversed the charges. He went around telling everybody that we stole his money, and that we were crooks. Again, this is not the same as Boosie, but you shouldn't just go off of what people tell you, there's usually more to it.
