MF Global: 1.2B missing

I saw a flash across the Bloomberg that said the MF Global trustee is thinking that roughly $1.2 in customer funds is "missing." I know that fund accounting is very complex and I'm sure that some of the money will turn up in a margin account, but at what monetary point do people(Corzine) goto jail? Is there a hard and fast rule that identifies the difference between say Madoff who blatantly stole money and this situation?
