Former trader Jerome Kerviel, closes his eyes during at a press conference in front of his hotel, in Ventimiglia, Italy, near the French border, Sunday, May 18, 2014. The rogue trader facing three years in prison for one of the biggest trading frauds in history is appealing to the French president for mercy. Jerome Kerviel, who almost took down his bank, Societe Generale, with 4.9 billion euros in losses, has been on a months-long pilgrimage back to France after meeting the pope. He stopped his return just short of the border Saturday. Kerviel, convicted in 2010, insists he was the victim of a system that allowed his illegal trades as long as they made money. An appeals court threw out a fine equal to his losses, but upheld his prison sentence. Kerviel is supposed to report to start his sentence by Sunday or be considered a fugitive.

FILE - In this Feb. 10, 2014 file photo, police officers look over a cart of hockey sticks after they were taken off a plane as NHL hockey players arrive at the Sochi International Airport for the 2014 Winter Olympics, in Sochi, Russia.Sochi hotel guests are walking, unchecked, past unused metal detectors. Security guards are no longer poking around at the pockets and ankles of every single person entering Olympic facilities. Tangerines and bottles of Coke are making it through security barriers that banned them two weeks ago. For all the warnings that security in Sochi would be invasive and aggressive, it's appearing more uneven, and in places almost relaxed. (AP Photo/Mark Humphrey, File)
