Soros loses bid to overturn his insider trading conviction

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/…
George Soros, the billionaire financier and liberal activist, was dealt a legal blow this week when the European Court of Human Rights refused to overturn his nine-year-old criminal conviction for insider trading.
A French court convicted Soros in 2002 for insider trading in the late 1980s, but the Hungary-born investor appealed, arguing that the French law on insider trading at the time was too ambiguous to find him guilty.
But the European court ruled Thursday in a 4-3 decision that the French rules were clear enough to convict him.
