ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGSSEC Charges Connecticut-Based Broker With Stealing Investor Funds to Pay Mortgage and Shopping BillsThe Securities and Exchange Commission today charged a broker and his company based in Danbury, Conn., with stealing at least $600,000 from customers who he persuaded to withdraw money from their brokerage accounts he managed at other firms and instead invest with him directly. The SEC alleges that Stephen B. Blankenship lured about a dozen customers – including some retirees and others he met at church – into his scheme by assuring them they could obtain a greater rate of return on their money by transferring it to his firm, Deer Hill Financial Group. Blankenship claimed he was investing their money in established securities such as publicly-traded mutual funds. But in reality he made no investments and merely transferred customer money to his own bank account, and he misused it to pay his mortgage, travel, and grocery bills among other personal expenses. Blankenship also paid some business expenses and made Ponzi-like payments to other customers who requested a return of all or part of their investment. In a parallel action, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Connecticut today announced criminal charges against Blankenship. “Blankenship took advantage of fellow churchgoers and senior citizens who relied on their savings for retirement and placed their trust in him,” said David P. Bergers, Director of the SEC’s Boston Regional Office. “He betrayed that trust by using their money to make personal credit card payments and home improvements.” According to the SEC’s complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut, most of the investors deceived by Blankenship became his brokerage customers at Santa Monica-based Syndicated Capital and later at Melville, N.Y.-based Vanderbilt Securities. Some had been his customers for as long as two decades. Beginning in at least 2002, Blankenship took advantage of those longstanding relationships and began convincing customers to withdraw money from their brokerage accounts at those firms with promises that he could achieve a greater rate of return for them directly by investing their money through Deer Hill. The SEC alleges that in order to conceal his scheme, Blankenship often created fake account statements that falsely represented that he had invested their money in a variety of investments. The purported account statements were printed on Deer Hill letterhead and provided to customers. In all instances, the investments described on the account statements did not exist. The SEC’s complaint alleges that Deer Hill and Blankenship violated the antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws and acted as unregistered brokers. The complaint seeks disgorgement of ill-gotten gains plus prejudgment interest, monetary penalties, and the entry of a permanent injunction against Deer Hill and Blankenship, who lives in New Fairfield, Conn. Based on the same misconduct, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Connecticut charged Blankenship with criminal violations. The Connecticut Department of Banking‘s Securities Division has obtained, by consent, a revocation of Blankenship’s registration and has barred Blankenship and Deer Hill from operating in Connecticut. The SEC thanks the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Connecticut, the Connecticut Department of Banking’s Securities Division, and the police department in Danbury, Conn., for their assistance in this matter. The SEC’s investigation, which is continuing, has been conducted by Kevin B. Currid, Robert B. Barry, and Michele Perillo in the Boston Regional Office with assistance from Mark Gera and Andrew Caverly of the broker-dealer examination program. Mr. Currid will lead the SEC’s litigation. (Press Rel. 2012-188; [SEC v. Deer Hill Financial Group, LLC, et al., Civil Action No. 12-01317 (District of Connecticut)] (LR-22479) SEC Suspends Attorney in the Matter of Jilaine H. Bauer, Esq.On September 12, 2012, the Commission issued an Order Instituting Public Administrative Proceedings and Imposing Temporary Suspension Pursuant to Rule 102(e)(3)(i)(B) of the Commission’s Rules of Practice that suspends Jilaine H. Bauer from appearing or practicing before the Commission. The Commission’s Order was based on the Eastern District of Wisconsin’s finding in SEC v. Bauer et al., Case No. 03-1427, that Bauer violated the federal securities laws by engaging in insider trading and that she acted with scienter in doing so. Bauer has 30 days to petition the Commission to lift the temporary suspension. If she does not make a timely petition, the suspension will become permanent pursuant to Rule 102(e)(3)(ii). (Rel. 34-67845; File No. 3-15020) In the Matter of SJK Investment Management, LLCOn September 12, 2012, the Commission issued an Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings Pursuant to Section 203(e) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, Making Findings and Imposing Remedial Sanctions against SJK Investment Management, LLC. The Order finds that SJK Investment Management, LLC (SJK), an investment adviser that has been registered with the Commission since 2009, was permanently enjoined on September 23, 2011 by consent from future violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and Sections 206(1), 206(2), 206(4) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and Rule 206(4)-8 thereunder, in the civil action entitled Securities and Exchange Commission v. Stanley J. Kowalewski and SJK Investment Management, LLC, Civil Action Number 1:11-CV-0056-TCB, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. Based on the above, the Order revokes the registration of SJK. SJK consented to the issuance of the Order without admitting or denying any of the findings in the Order, except it admitted to the entry of the injunction. (Rel. IA-3463; File No. 3-15021) Two Former Officers of Sterling Financial Corp. Subsidiary Sentenced to Lengthy Prison Terms and Ordered to Pay $53 Million in Restitution for Conducting Financial FraudThe Commission announced that on September 11 and 12, 2012, Joseph M. Braas, of Lititz, Pennsylvania, and Michael J. Schlager, of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, were sentenced in a criminal action for orchestrating a sophisticated financial fraud that lasted over five years. Braas and Schlager were two senior officers at Equipment Finance, LLC (EFI), formerly a commercial lender to the soft pulp logging industry and wholly-owned subsidiary of Sterling Financial Corp. (Sterling), a publicly traded bank holding company based in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Judge Paul S. Diamond of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania sentenced Braas to 15 years in federal prison, and Schlager to 20 years in prison, each followed by five years of supervised release. Braas and Schlager were also each ordered to pay $53 million in restitution. Braas and Schlager had each previously pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud, and two counts of mail fraud, all affecting a financial institution. On January 6, 2011, the Commission filed a civil action against Braas and Schlager based on the same conduct alleged in the criminal case. Without admitting or denying the Commission’s allegations, Braas and Schlager agreed to settle the matter, and Final Judgments were entered as to each. The Commission’s complaint alleged that, from at least February 2002 until April 2007, Braas, EFI’s Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, and Schlager, EFI’s Executive Vice President, orchestrated a pervasive and wide-ranging scheme using fraudulent underwriting and reporting practices to hide mounting losses and defaults within EFI’s commercial loan portfolio from Sterling’s senior management and auditors. The Commission further alleged that Braas and Schlager were able to subvert virtually every aspect of EFI’s loan process and internal controls. They created fictitious loans for the purpose of making monthly payments on delinquent loans, altered loan documents to hide delinquent and fictitious loans, granted excessive deferrals and resets of delinquent loans to make them appear current, reassigned loan payments to unrelated accounts to fund payments on delinquent loans, and used aliases for borrowers to circumvent EFI’s maximum lending limitations. They also deceived Sterling’s internal and independent auditors through fraudulent accounting entries, false collateral descriptions and appraisals, fabricated UCC filings, and by recruiting vendors to assist in the circumvention of loan confirmation procedures. As alleged in the complaint, Braas and Schlager caused EFI to report false financial information to Sterling which, in turn, from 2002 through 2006, filed quarterly and annual reports with the Commission containing materially false and misleading financial statements. As a result of the fraud, Sterling ultimately charged off $281 million of EFI finance receivables, which represented a large majority of EFI’s loan portfolio, and approximately 13 percent of Sterling’s total loan portfolio during the period of the fraud. For further information, see Litigation Release No. 21797 (Jan. 6, 2011). [U.S. v. Joseph M. Braas, et al., Case No. 10-cr-00753-PD (E.D.
