Martha Stewart's Arrest and Other Scandals That Shocked America

In July 2004, Martha Stewart was sentenced to prison after being found guilty of conspiracy and other charges. However, Stewart’s shocking, albeit temporary fall was not the first high-level scandal to capture the country’s attention: A victim of notorious swindler Bernie Madoff had to give up a lavish lifestyle to clean homes in order to get by; gangster Whitey Bulger won the Lotto and folks were scratching their heads; and to this day, the notorious case of Tonya Harding continues to raise eyebrows.
