Case Studies Similar to Wirecard?

I am an incoming summer intern in sales and trading at an investment bank. We are currently networking across the firm. One of the people I spoke to told me to research Wirecard and then the next day their share price PLUNGED. I wanted to try to impress them by researching similar share price falls (especially during financial crises) and what happened next for each company. I also wanted to find in-depth research into Wirecard.

Can anyone point me towards resources to find this info or companies I can research?

Thanks

Yes it did. I wanted to look at the way businesses have responded to similar scandals, the impact of senior management stepping down, etc. The fraud was already being investigated for a while now so I'm not really wanting to look at markers, but maybe the reasons that any investor would have held long positions before the plunge. Seemed inevitable and a matter of when not if
