He was convicted of insider trading in 2011 and served seven and a half years in prison, in a case that arose amid heightened post-2008 financial crisis enforcement against Wall Street. On October 16, 2009, he was arrested by the FBI for insider trading, which also caused the Galleon Group to fold. He stood trial in U.S. v. Rajaratnam (09 Cr. 01184) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and on May 11, 2011, was found guilty on all 14 counts of conspiracy and securities fraud. On October 13, 2011, Rajaratnam was sentenced to 11 years in prison and fined a criminal and civil penalty of over $150 million combined. Rajaratnam was incarcerated at Federal Medical Center, Devens in Ayer, Massachusetts, an administrative facility housing male offenders requiring specialized or long-term medical or mental health care. Rajaratnam was released to home confinement in his Upper East Side Manhattan apartment, located on Sutton Place, in the summer of 2019. Rajaratnam being released after 7 1/2 years, published his memoir, Uneven Justice, detailing the events surrounding his insider trading conviction and the alleged prosecutorial overreach he claims took place.
