Antigua's Chief Financial Officer Indicted

Leroy King, chief of Antigua’s Financial Services Regulatory Commission, had been collecting thousands of dollars in bribes from Stanford, the SEC claimed in a lawsuit against him yesterday. In 2006, King met the Texas financier and allegedly outlined a response to keep the U.S. off track: He told the SEC that an on-site examination of Stanford’s firm showed it complied with all “applicable laws and regulations.”

  1. I wonder what the response will be from the Antiguan government now the FSC have been directly implicated in the Stanford fraud.
    I bet there are a lot of depositors preparing court cases against the Antiguan government at this moment.
