\"15lizwarren\"Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D) used her debut on the Senate Banking Committee to question financial regulators about the lack of accountability for Wall Street banks\u2019 role in the financial crisis<\/strong>, challenging them to name the last time a Wall Street bank was taken to trial over allegations of fraud and other crimes instead of being allowed to settle out of court. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I\u2019d like to know is, tell me a little bit about the last few times you\u2019ve taken the biggest financial institutions on Wall Street all the way to a trial,\u201d Warren asked the regulators.
