``This year, classical-music impresario and hedge-fund manager Barrett Wissman pleaded guilty for his role in an alleged pay-to-play scheme involving the New York state pension fund. He agreed to cooperate with the government’s case, which has so far touched a catalog of players including political consultant Hank Morris and private-equity honchos Steve Rattner, formerly of Quadrangle Group, and Carlyle Group’s David Rubenstein. Wissman also agreed to pay a $12 million penalty.''
