Imagine if Madoff's son who reported his dad and hanged himself afterward realized that he has an impostor syndrome. A treatable psychiatric condition. He could have sought professional medical help and Madoff's firm would be today a respectable financial institution.

I really doubt that his firm could have ended up respectable. Madoff did more harm than people realize. Whether we like it or not, innocent people who are related or connected to guilty people who did real horrible acts are,  unfortunately, convicted by society as well. It's not fair, but it is what it is.
