今年6月，在顾磊杰在法庭上进行抗辩之后，一个陪审团认为顾磊杰犯有三项证券欺诈罪和一项合谋罪，因为他在金融危机期间向拉贾拉特南泄露了高盛的信息，有时甚至在得到消息后立即告知拉贾拉特南，其中包括2010年金融危机期间伯克希尔哈撒韦公司(Berkshire Hathaway Inc.)将向高盛投资50亿美元的消息。

Mr. Rajaratnam used the tips to earn millions of dollars for Galleon, prosecutors said, though Mr. Gupta didn't trade on them himself or profit directly at all. Mr. Gupta was acquitted of two securities fraud charges.

检方称，拉贾拉特南利用这些信息为盖伦获得了数百万美元的收入，不过，顾磊杰本人并没有用这些信息从事交易或直接获利。顾磊杰的两项证券欺诈罪名不成立。

Judge Rakoff received letters of support for Mr. Gupta from hundreds of prominent supporters, including Microsoft Corp. co-founder Bill Gates, the doctor Deepak Chopra, and former United Nations leader Kofi Annan, not to mention Mr. Gupta's wife, four daughters, and scores of other relatives and friends.

拉克夫收到了数百位知名人士声援顾磊杰的信，包括微软(Microsoft Corp.)联合创始人盖茨(Bill Gates)、乔布拉(Deepak Chopra)博士、前联合国秘书长安南(Kofi Annan)，当然还有顾磊杰的妻子、四个女儿以及另外的数十名亲友。

Their contentions that Mr. Gupta deserved leniency because he had lived an otherwise impeccable life and given many years to health care, poverty, education and other philanthropic causes, were set against the legal requirement that a judge issue a sentence that will discourage others from similar crimes.
