    'I'm in debtors' prison,' says Chicago options trader jailed 4 years over unpaid $10 million divorce judgment

    Steve Fanady, a 61-year-old Chicago options trader, has been held in Cook County Jail for four years due to civil contempt for failing to comply with a court order to transfer stock shares awarded to his ex-wife during their divorce. Over 2,500 people in Cook County have been jailed in the past decade for unpaid spousal or child-support obligations, with most released quickly but some detained for years.
