tldr:

An executive at a billion-dollar investment bank was busted at the Tribeca Whole Foods for shoplifting $210 in goods — which he allegedly tried to sneak out in his children’s stroller, court records revealed.

Lupu, the co-head of global prime brokerage at BMO Capital Markets, has a swanky pad in the same building as Breitling President Thierry Prissert, property records show.

The father of two, who also has a $1.4 million home in Westchester, accepted a deal Monday in Manhattan Criminal Court — an adjournment in contemplation of dismissal.

Dafuq? This is humiliating. I’m probably like 2 or 3 degrees connected to this guy.

That is hilarious

BMO is def more than a “billion dollar investment bank,” it has 19B in revenues. And dang, guess bankers don’t make as much as I thought. Plus he was “Co-Head Global Prime Brokerage”

$210 bucks is basically just a sandwich and the salad bar at whole foods, brosef just forgot to pay for his sandwich
