Evidence against Goffer ‘overwhelming’

Trader heard sharing illegal tips, prosecutor says

The “overwhelming” evidence against ex-Galleon Group trader Zvi Goffer includes “devastating” wiretapped telephone calls in which he’s heard sharing illegal tips, a prosecutor told jurors at the close of the insider trading case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard Tarlowe Wednesday urged jurors in Manhattan federal court to convict Goffer, his brother Emanuel and accused accomplice Michael Kimelman, as closing arguments began. Jury deliberations may begin Thursday after defense attorneys’ arguments.
