A couple of things on this (and, I'm not a lawyer yet or by any means an SEC expert, so bear with me...)
1) He's still in the civil phase, so there's no guarantee that there will be follow-up criminal charges. I'm not sure of the percentage of these cases that turn into some sort of criminal charges, or whether his notoriety will play a part in subsequent charges, but he's not going to jail (yet).
2) There is a difference in Martha's situation - if I remember correctly, she didn't go to prison for insider trading, but for lying to SEC officials and investigators. It was the lying that did her in, not the insider trading itself.
ETA: Kevin, did he make any offensive comments about OKC during the process? Or did he just vote against the relocation?
