Mark Nordlicht, co-founder of Platinum Partners, exits federal court in the Brooklyn borough of New York, U.S., on Monday, Dec. 19, 2016. Nordlicht and six associates were charged with fraud. They're accused of inflating the book value of unprofitable oil projects to make the fund's performance look better in what the government called a $1 billion fraud and a "Ponzi-esque" scheme.
