While husband Bernie Madoff traded in the Upper East Side digs for a lower Manhattan jail cell back in March, a judge effectively evicted Ruth Madoff from the $7 million apartment as part of a $170 billion forfeiture order handed down last week.
It’s bye-bye forever to the $35,000 Lavar Kerman Persian carpet and the $20,000 Chippendale-style tea table in his art-filled four-bedroom duplex on the upper East Side.
The living room features two plush couches, antique lamps and a valuable Impressionist painting.
The master bedroom was designed around Georgian antiques. It features a canopied bed, fireplace and a burlwood tall chest topped with Chinese porcelains dating back to the late 1700s.
The large kitchen is decked out with fine china and silver serving sets.
For Bernie Madoff, home now is a spartan cell in a maximum security wing of the Metropolitan Correctional Center, with a bunk bed and seatless metal toilet.
My house is nicer.
Sounds like a typical two family house in BP. Except for the paintings. Those would be of Rebbes.
The two will reside together in Hell a nice section set aside for the madoff’s
Who said that this isn’t היזק ראייה?
Why do we (including myself) tend to forget that there are issurim about another persons personal life???
And don’t say that there is no issur since it was all stolen fraud money
this was his home and pashtus it’s ossur
the higher they climb, the harder they fall
Yeah, but does he have a mezzuzah on the door?
I don’t know about any of you, but I think it’s time to have a little rachmoonis, here.. we are a nation of rachmonim. it’s time that we showed a little..
It seems to make the commentators feel better about themselves to put down the Maddoff’s professionally designed pad. Get a life.
how do you know that they will never see it again?
who was the hoooooooosid in the pictures
It is a shame that one “bad”Jew is singled out, and held as the stereo-type for all Jews..I know, for a fact, if this crook wasn’t Jewish, he wouldn’t have so much ink.
The porcelains belong to the Elie Wiesel Foundation, the bed to Hadassah, the couch to that lady who now cleans toilets to make a living after investing her life savings with Bernie the Ganef…these people have no conscience. My heart bleeds for them. NOT.
pidyan svooyin…gevaldig

WOnder how expensive is the mezuza on his front entrance door. Or for that did he spend only $25?
