The December FINRA Enforcement cases are now online and analyzed by Bill Singer.  Note that December was a bumper month for improper borrowing from customers by brokers.  You have the classy broker who opened an unauthorized credit card account in the name of an elderly client, ran up a five-figure sum, and then tried to blame it all on a fictitious part-time employee.  Then there is the other broker who borrowed $30,000 from a living client and decided it was okay to only pay $1,000 of that debt back to the estate.
