So That's How They Paid for Such a Nice Wedding

The SEC announced on July 1, 2013, that it charged three individuals with insider trading in connection with the acquisition of Rohm Haas by Dow. The complaint alleges that one of the three charged individuals obtained the confidential information from his then live-in girlfriend, now his wife, who was the administrative assistant to Dow's CFO. However, the girlfriend/wife was not charged, as her failing seems to have been to not hide the relevant information from her boyfriend; there is no assertion that she was involved in the trading decisions.
