"Prisoner's Dilemna"

Prisoner's dilemna involves a scenario where Prisoner "A" and Prisoner "B" are both arrested.  Prosecutors separate the two prisoners and offer then a reduced sentence in exchange for "snitching" on the other.  In the case of Prisoner B, (i) if he snitches and Prisoner A does not snitch, Prisoner B receives a reduced sentence and Prisoner A gets the book thrown at him; (ii) if Prisoner B does not snitch and Prisoner A does snitch, then Prisoner B receives the maximum sentence while Prisoner A receives a reduced sentence; (iii) if both prisoners snitch then they both receive the maximum sentence; (iv) if neither snitches then they both get off or receive something less than getting the book thrown at them.  Allen Stanford has denied any wrongdoing whatsoever.  However, playing the odds, Stanford Financial's CFO has decided to tell "what had happened" and "what he'd seen or heard" in exchange for a reduced sentence.  Here is the full article from the Wall Street Journal:  http://online.wsj.com/article/SB125138421669063741.html
