Libor scandal: Discovering what lay behind Tom Haye's decision to rig interest rates

To his colleagues, Tom Hayes was Tommy Chocolate – so called because he preferred cocoa to alcohol when out drinking with City friends. In court, Hayes, 35, who has a wife and child, complained he was being portrayed as “the Jesse James of Libor, the Bobby Dazzler of Libor”. At the end of his trial, the former trader was confirmed not only to have been a “gambler” but the “ringmaster” of the “biggest banking crime in history”.
