Stanford financial adviser Leyla Wydler of Houston received a standing ovation from hundreds of Stanford investors after testifying against her bosses, as part of an $8 billion fraud case against Stanford and other investors. 

Wydler approached her bosses last year with worries about the safety of CDs the company was selling to clients. When Wydler persisted, she was fired from her job. After the firing she took her case to various securities regulators, including the SEC. 

She testified Monday in a Baton Rouge court, where losses by Louisiana investors are estimated at about $1 billion.
