Jeffrey Epstein to agree to plea in prostitution case 
Part-time Palm Beach resident to trade 18 months in prison, house arrest for end to federal 
probe. 
By MICHELE DARGAN 
Daily News Staff Writer 
Friday, December 14, 2007 
Money manager and part-time Palm Beacher Jeffrey 
Epstein is scheduled to go before a judge Jan. 4 for a 
plea hearing in his felony prostitution case. 
The hearing will be before Circuit Judge Sandra 
McSorley, the court docket shows. 
Sources have confirmed that the deal will result in the 
Manhattan money manager serving 18 months in prison 
followed by house arrest. 
In exchange for a guilty plea, federal authorities are 
expected to drop their probe into whether Epstein broke 
federal laws, the sources said. 
Epstein, 54, was indicted in July 2006 on a felony charge 
of solicitation of prostitution. 
The charge capped an 11-month investigation by Palm 
Beach police that began after a woman told police that 
her 14-year-old stepdaughter might have been molested 
by a man in Palm Beach. 
Police said Epstein paid five underage girls for massages 
and sometimes sex at his El Brillo Way home.

accused of paying underage girls 
for massages, sometimes sex at 
his home on El Brillo Way. 
Investigators watched Epstein's 7,234-square-foot 
waterfront home and private jet, and rummaged through his trash to build their case. 
They took sworn statements from five alleged victims and 17 witnesses. 
The investigation also focused on Epstein's assistant, 
of New York City, and

€driki- PRINTTHIS 
WEST PALM BEACH — A lawyer for financier Jeffrey Epstein have filed an 
emergency request with Fourth District of Appeal seeking to block the unsealing of 
Epstein's secret non-prosecution agreement with United States Attorney's Office. 
A circuit judge has ordered the release of the documents at noon on Thursday.

Attorney Jane Kreusler-

Attorneys for women now 
suing Epstein, together with an attorney for The Palm Beach Post, have pressed for the public release of 
Epstein's deal with federal prosecutors, arguing the public has right to see it and the victims have a right 
to use it in their litigation. 
Epstein pleaded guilty in state court a year ago to solicitation of prostitution and procuring teenagers for 
prostitution. He was sentenced to 18 months incarceration, which is due to end five months early on July 
22.

Epstein seeks to block unsealing of secret deal with feds 
Page 2 of 2 
His plea followed investigations by both state and federal authorities of accounts of teenage girls 
brought to the money manager's Palm Beach manse for massages and sexual encounters. 
At the time of his plea, his secret deal with federal prosecutors to avoid charges by them was sealed and 
placed in his court file without following court rules that govern sealing. 
The seven-page agreement - which Epstein's own attorneys have referred to in federal filings as 
"unprecedented" and "highly unusual" - promises a behind-the-scenes look at justice for Epstein who, 
according to Vanity Fair, hobnobbed with the likes of Prince Andrew and former President Bill Clinton, 
as he managed accounts for billionaires.

77te financier's accusers want the case unsealed to use in litigation against the Palm Reacher 
By SUSAN SPENCER-WENDEL 
Palm Beath Rot Staff ;Voter 
WEST PALM BEACH — A 
judge on Friday declined 
to suspend his ruling to 
unseal financier Jeffrey 
Epstein's secret non-pros-
ecution deal with federal 
prosecutors. but delayed 
the docwnent's release 
until Thursday. 
The delay gives Ep-
stein's attorneys time to 
challenge the ruling in 
the 4th District Court of 
Appeal. 
"We'll let the appellate 
court tell us, teach us what 
the law in this case will 
be," Circuit Judge Jeffrey 
Colbath said. 
Epstein's attorneys Jack 
Goldberger and Robert 
Critton argued that re-
lease of the confidential 
document would violate a 
federal rule restricting re-
lease of information about 
federal grand juries and 
would also cause Epstein 
irreparable harm. 
"If the proverbial horse 
is out of the barn, you can't 
get him back in." Critton 
argued.

SATURDAY. JUNE 27. 2009 
Wood chipped from around lock in one case 
► RESIDENTSfrom 18 
began holding monthly 
crime-watch meetings in 
May after Emma Bates 
returned from a trip to 
the Bahamas to find her 
television, computer and 
.38-caliber 
Colt 
pistol 
missing from her home on 
West 26th Street. Burglars 
came in through her back 
door by chipping away 
the wood around the door 
lock. 
Verdina Coleman was 
late to the crime-watch 
meeting of June 11 be-
cause 
the 
window 
of 
her home on 26th Street 
had been gnashed that 
morning while she was at 
work. Coleman was lucky. 
A neighbor saw the 11:30 
a.m. break-in and called 
911. Police recovered her 
stolen video camera and 
arrested four young men. 
Riviera Beach Police 
Cmdr. Michael Madden 
praised the crime-watch 
group for working togeth-
er and for keeping a keen 
eye on the neighborhood.

Juvenile burglars can 
be back on the streets the 
day after being charged 
and booked, Madden said. 
That's one reason vigilance 
is so important in Monroe 
Heights.

to 6 a.m. Sunday through 
Thursday and from 12:01 
a.m. until 6 a.m. on Friday 
and Saturday. 
Madden also recom-
mends that burglary vic-
tims go to court to plead 
their cases as victims 
before the judge. 
Bates, who has lived in 
her home for more than 30 
years, vowed to fight the 
burglars as long as it takes 
to stop them. 
"I can't sleep without

Show not over at Caldwell, chief says 
By KEVIN D. THOMPSON 
Palm Beach Post Stall Writer 
BOCA RATON — It's not a great 
time to be in the theater business. 
Just ask Clive Cholerton, the 
Caldwell Theatre Company's newly 
appointed artistic director. 
There have been whispers in the 
local theater community that the 
Caldwell owes money to vendors, 
is two months behind in mortgage 
payments and has not been man-
aged effectively. 
He said Friday that the Caldwell's 
woes have been greatly exagger-
ated. As for owing money to vendors 
or falling behind in mortgage pay-
ments, Cholerton would only say, 
"We're working with our vendors 
and the bank. We're doing every-
thing to keep ourselves current and 
there are no plans for a foreclosure? 
Cholerton replaced Michael Hall. 
the Caldwell's co-founder, on June 1. 
Cholerton joined the Boca Raton-
based theater six years ago and has 
been its chairman of the board the 
past four. 
To address its financial problems, 
Cholerton said the Caldwell plans to 
trim $250,000 from its $1.9 million 
operating budget this year. 
Recently all the theater's execu-
tives took a 50 percent pay cut. Two

staffers left and three board mem-
bers quit. 
lb reduce expenses, the theater 
will cut down on warehouse space 
and no longer finance apartments to 
house actors. 
Cholerton said next season 95 
percent of the actors the company 
hires will be local. 
Despite the numerous chal-
lenges, Cholerton is bullish on the 
Caldwell's immediate future. 
"We can get this turned around." 
he said. 'We're working on having a 
great summer and having a great 
next year"

'11 shortfall may hit $110 million 
Falling property values will torment county budget writers, officials say. 
By PAUL QUINLAN 
Palm Beath Post Stay 
Palm Beach County's real estate val-
ues will continue to fall next year by 10 
percent or more, say county leaders, who 
estimate the deeper slide will open up a 
$110 million budget gap in 2011. 
The prospect of another gaping bud-
get hole — this one, about 10 percent of 
the county's $1.1 billion operating bud-
get — will likely require a fundamental 
rethinking of what services the county 
government should provide and at what 
cost to taxpayers already grappling with 
double-digit unemployment amid the 
worst financial crisis since the Great 
Depression. 
Even as residential real estate shows 
signs of recovery, commercial property 
values, which had shown some resilience, 
are now plunging further, Property Ap-
praiser Gary Nikolits said. He predicted 
a lagging commercial real estate decline 
would at least offset any slowing or stabi-
lizing of residential values. 
"I think next year is going to be at least 
as tough, if not tougher," Nikolits said. "I 
wish I could be more optimistic." 
The dire forecast emerged alongside 
new estimates that said Palm Beach 
County's tax base is on track to fall 12.9 
percent this year, a decline not seen in 
more than a century, Nikolits said. The 
numbers were a slight, albeit insiipift-
cant, improvement over last months es-
timate, which said the county's property

to battle crime 
Monroe Heights neighbors take to the 
streets after a surge in burglaries. 
By WILLIE HOWARD 
Palm B' eath Poor Staff Iilter 
RIVIERA BEACH — "No more break-
ins, no more crime," Amon Yisrael 
repeated on the loudspeaker of a police 
cruiser as Monroe Heights residents 
walked slowly down West 26th Court with 
Mawr Thomas Masters carrying signs 
reading No Violence on My Block. 
'Enough is enough," Yisrael said. "The 
law will be strictly enforced." 
Thursday night's walk against crime 
was one of several Masters plans to lead in 
Monroe Heights as residents fight a recent 
rash of burglaries. 
In Police Service Area 21, which in-
cludes Monroe Heights, burglaries spiked 
to 35 in April. Another 38 break-ins were 
reported in May, and 19 had been report-
ed for June as of Tuesday.

In the fight: Lorenzo Robertson, minority AIDS coordinator for Palm

STIGMA OF HIV/AIDS REMAINS 
BREAKING 
THE SILENCE 
A book gives voice to local people w'th the 
disease, in hopes others will get tested today. 
By LONA O'CONNOR 
Palm Brack Pot Staff Write.

 ver 13 years, Lorenzo Robertson and Rice Roll-
ins have been best friends and full-time com-
rades in the fight against HIV/AIDS. 
So it was a natural progression for them to collabo-
rate on Silence Is Death, Unleashed Voices, a book featur-
ing the words and faces of 25 Palm Beach County 
people in the HIV/AIDS community. 
Robertson, Florida's minority AIDS coordinator in 
Palm Beach County, and Rollins, a Tampa minister 
and photographer, debuted their book at a reception 
Thursday night. Their hope is to draw more attention 
to this year's HIV Test Day, to be held today at loca-
tions across the county. 
To make the test available to as many people as pos-
sible, a few test locations will include nighttime hours, 
such as the Sunset Night Club in West Palm Beach, 
which will offer testing from midnight tonight until 5 
a.m. Sunday. 
Though overall HIV/AIDS infection numbers are de-
creasing, the virus still disproportionately affects black 
people. Of 530 Palm Beach County people who tested 
positive in 2008, 377 were black.

Driver hits, kills two road workers 
By BILL DiPAOLO 
Palm Beath Post Staff Wiiter 
They are almost every-
where these days — road 
construction crews — on 
Interstate 95 and State 
Roads 7 and Alk And the 
work is some of the most 
dangerous out there, say 
workers and authorities. 
In the early morning 
hours of Friday, a driver 
plowed through a con-
struction site on Alternate 
A1A in Jupiter, killing 
two workers and sending 
a third to the hospital. 
The crash happened in 
the northbound lanes be-
tween lbney Penna Drive 
and 
Frederick 
Small 
Road. 
Steven Dunn, 53, of 
Stone 
Mountain, 
Ga., 
and Jesus Antonio Resen-
diz-Banales, 34, a Palm 
Beach County resident, 
died when they were hit 
by a northbound Toyota 
Solara while they were 
working on a county re-
surfacing project. A third 
worker, Clint Talley, 39, 
also a Palm Beach County 
residents, remains at Jupi-
ter Medical Center. 
No charges have been 
filed against the Toyota 
driver, Cynthia Castoro, 
43, of Tequesta, who was 
not injured. Police are 
awaiting toxicology re-
ports, said Jupiter police 
spokeswoman Sally Col-
lins-Ortiz. 
The word spread quick-
ly to other mad crews Fri-
day morning. 
"Watch this this guy 
won't move over," shouts 
Wayne 
Retty, 
waving 
his red flag to warn an 
upcoming blact SUV to 
slow down to protect land-
scapers trimming the me-
dian on US. 1 just south of 
Donald Ross Road. 
Sure enough, the driver 
— on a cellphone — stays 
in the lane, buzzing by at 
about 50 mph just a few 
feet away from Retty. 
"It's dangerous work.
We have to concentrate 
on our jobs. We need the 
public to slow down and 
be careful at construction 
sites." said county road 
supervisor John Brand. 
Road workers earn be-
tween $10-$18 hourly, he 
said, and they take safety 
training. 
"We need more public 
safety education. Even 
with signs, doubling fines 
in construction zones and 
flaggers, we still have ac-
cidents: Brand said.

Library worker spots missing DVDs 
By ELIOT KLEINBERG 
Palm Beath Post Ste Writer 
RIVIERA BEACH — DVDs for 
sale at a Riviera Beach thrift store 
caught the eye of a shopper who 
noticed some of them bore stickers 
identifying them as property of the 
Palm Beach County Public Library 
System. 
The shopper should know: He 
shelves items for the library. 
Riviera Beach police have re-
covered 174 DVDs and nine music 
CDs„ Sgt. Pat Galligan said Friday. 
Some were from the North Palm 
Beach library; but police have yet 
to determine if those were part of 
the 192 DVDs, worth about $4,800, 
that were stolen from that library 
between June 1 and June 11. Two 
people have been arrested in that 
case. 
A student worker at the county 
system's Palm Beach Gardens 
branch had spotted the DVDs as he 
shopped at Thrift Store Items, 6831 
N. Military Trail. 
At an average price to the county 
of $22.50 each, the loss was close to 
64,000. 
Assistant Director Sharon Hill 
said the system has about 70.000 
titles at its branches and simply 
didn't notice so many were miss-
ing. 
Hill said the DVDs came from 
several of the county's branches 
and at least two music CDs were 
from the West Palm Beach library. 
Workers at the thrift store told 
police they had paid a man $75 to 
$100. A manager at the store did not 
• return a call Friday. 
Galligan asked anyone with 
information 
to 
call 
him 
at 
(561) 629-6032 or Crime Stop 
pers at (800) 458T1PS (8477).

Competition drives fares out of cities

a bargain. Chances are some of 
your favorite spots will be on sale. 
Take a closer look at travel Web 
sites, including the airline sites, 
that often throw in additional 
discounts if you enter a specific 
code usually found in a section for 
promotional fares. Airline Web sites 
also offer deals that include hotel 
and sometimes car rental. 
Gabe Wire, senior editor at 
travel information Web site Thwel-
zoo, expects promotions to continue 
into the summer as people remain 
hesitant to book far in advance. 
"People are definitely becoming 
more impulse-driven," he said. 
if you still want to go somewhere 
before mid-August, Parsons says 
buy your tickets now. It's unlikely 
the deals will get any better. After 
that it's another story. Parsons says 
airlines haven't started serious 
discounting for flights after mid-
August, so you might want to wait 
to book tickets for then. 
Parsons and other travel watch-
ers have noticed that fare hikes 
have eliminated ultra-cheap tickets 
to Europe between now and Aug. 
17. 
Fares out of any particular city 
are driven mostly by competition to 
a destination. For instance, Frontier, 
Southwest and United were already 
competing vigorously in Denver 
before the recession. So fares there 
fell just 1 percent through June 1, 
according to Bob Harrell of airfare-
tracking firm Harrell Associates. 
Regardless of where you live, it's 
not too late to get out for the sum- • 
mer. For example. AirTran has a fart, 
sale out of Atlanta. You can fly on 
Thesdays and Wednesdays for under 
S100 each way to Cancun, Mexico; 
Fort Myers and Orlando; Minneapo-
lis and Washington. Escape the heat 
with $128 fares each way to Seattle. 
AirTran also has Knoxville, 
Tenn., to Orlando, flights for $44 
and Memphis to Los Angeles for 
$119 each way 
All the Aiaran sale fares have to 
be purchased by Tiresday for travel 
through Nov 4. 
You can fly from Atlanta to do, 
ens of cities on Delta Air Lines, for 
as low as $49 one-way, if you but 
your ticket by Thesday. 
Leisure fares from the South 
were 12 percent lower than at the 
same time last year, according In

Ritzy trip? 
It's no day 
at beach for 
poor officials 
My heart goes out to the Palm 
Beach County commissioners 
who have slogged across the state 
to do the public's business at a 
luxury resort on Marco Island. 
It's not as easy at it seems: 
You have to get up every morn-
ing at a beachfront resort, pull 
yourself away from the buffet, 
avert your eyes from the 18-hole 
golf course. sidestep the spa, 
and head to a meeting room for 
a discussion of plebeian topics, 
such as public transportation or 
homelessness. 
It's enough to drive you back 
to your room for the scented soap 
and the mini-bar. 
How easy can it be to focus on 
the homeless when you're staying 
in a resort that asks, "Searching 
for Paradise?" 
Not ideal. Certainly, the fact 
that taxpayers are ponying up 
about S10.000 to help pay for the 
trip to the Marco Island Marriott 
Beach Resort comes as some 
solace. 
But it's a true test of public see 
vice. and I'm not talking about the 
champagne and chocolate-dipped 
strawberries that come with the 
resort's "escape romance" pack-
age. 
They deserte a break, and a tan 
This is no escape for our public 
servants. It wasn't their idea to 
take time out from the daily task 
of finding ways to lay off county 
workers and grind out a few 
dollars from an overstretched 
budget. 
They're just part of a Florida 
Association of Counties gather-
ing And so it's only fitting that 
tour of our commissioners and 
some staffers show up. 
After all, one of the seminars is 
on "honest services and public in-
tegrity" Not having Palm Beach 
County public officials at that 
discussion would be like holding 
a steroids chat without the team-
mates of Manny Ramirez, Alex 
Rodriguez and Barry Bonds. 
So I applaud them. It took 
a great deal of courage for our 
county commissioners to go to 
this conference, knowing full 
well that they'd be criticized by 
commission hopefuls such as 
Karl Dickey, who has suggested 
checking them for tan lines when 
they return. 
I mean, c'mon, Karl. Some of 
that tanning will certainly be 
warranted. A golf outing is actual-
ly part of the schedule, and there 
may be some accidental tanning 
during the early moments of the 
sunset dinner cruise. 
Fertile ground for Ideas 
I think you just need to trust 
that our commissioners are 
working hard, instead of imagin-
ing the worst, which would be 
that Commissioners Jeff Koons, 
Karen Marcus, Steve Abrams and 
Shelley Vana are there to take 
advantage of the resort's "fertile 
turtle package" — a pituitary 
gland-stimulating couples mas-
sage combined with fertility-
promoting aromatherapy and a 
"special offer for couples who 
actually conceive during their 
visit." 
Ugh. Now look what you made 
me do: Ruin everybody's break-
fast. 
Are you happy? All this dis-
trust of your public officials has 
led to a visual that will take hours 
to erase. 
So just take a few deep breaths. 
Calm down. It's no big deal. Our 
commissioners are just learn-
ing how to get by in these tough 
times by spending a few days at 
a beachfront resort in Southwest 
Florida. 
It's not as if they've disap-
peared to Argentina.

Lake Worth High in trouble

Lake Worth High School was named

Riviera budget proposals 
may result in 40 job cuts 
By WILLIE HOWARD 
Palm Beach Past Staff Writer 
RIVIERA BEACH — As 
many as 40 police officers, 
firefighters and general 
employees could lose their 
jobs under budget-cutting 
scenarios presented to the 
city council Thursday. 
Because the taxable 
value of city property is 
expected to drop 16 per-
cent during the budget 
year that begins Oct. 1, 
the city is expected to 
bring in $2.5 million less 
in property tax revenue 
at the current tax rate of 
$8.43 per $1,000 taxable 
value. 
Revenues from permit 
fees and other sources 
also are down. 
Under 
the 
tightest 
budget scenario, with no 
tax increase, 60 full-time 
positions would be cut 
— 14 police officers, 21 
firefighters, four commu-
nications officers and 21 
general employees. 
Councilman 
Shelby 
Lowe noted that 22 posi-
tions are vacant, meaning 
about 40 employees would 
be laid off under that sce-
nario. 
Under a second pro-
posal that calls for in-
creasing the tax rate by 
50 cents per S1,000 tax-
able value, to $8.93. the 
city would keep all police 
and firefighters but would 
cut 30 full-time positions 
— about 10 percent of the 
general employee work-
force — and seven part-
BONAIR 
time positions. 
A third scenario that in-
creases the tax rate by $1 
per $1,000 taxable value, to 
.43, also calls for elimi-
nating 30 full-time and 
seven part-time positions 
but takes less money from 
reserves — about $500,000 
versus $2 million under 
the first two scenarios. 
All three scenarios pre-
sented Thursday call for 
all employees to take one 
unpaid day off a month for 
a savings of $1 million. All 
department heads have 
been told to cut their bud-
gets by 10 percent. 
City 
Manager 
Ruth 
Jones plans to present a 
tentative budget to the 
council by July 30.

Man, 42, faked sleepover 
to assault girl, 8, cops say 
By ELIOT KLEINBERG 
Palm Bead Post Staff Writer 
The 8-year-old 
said 
"John" had invited her to a 
sleepover birthday party 
for his daughter. 
But there was no party 
or even a daughter. In-
stead. the girl told author-
ities, John Henry Peek 
spent the night sexually 
assaulting her. 
A 
judge 
Thursday 
ordered Peek, 42, of sub-
urban West Palm Beach, 
held without bail. He is 
charged with sexual bat-
tery on a child under 12, 
technically a felony pun-
ishable by death. 
According to a Palm 
Beach County Sheriff's 
Office report, the victim's 
mother said a man she 
knew only as John invited 
the girl to a sleepover 
birthday party for his 
daughter. 
The mother said that 
when she dropped the 
girl off on June 16, she 
saw 
children 
playing 
outside and saw pizza 
and children's videos in-
side. The next morning:. 
the woman said, "John" 
dropped off her daughter 
at 6 a.m., saying his girl-
friend and daughter had 
been in an accident. 
The woman said the 
girl told her she wasn't 
feeling well. 
The mother said she 
saw physical signs of the 
assault and asked the girl 
about them. She said the 
girl told her "John" had 
given her beer, had kissed 
her and had fondled her. 
On Monday, the girl 
spoke with investigators 
from the Child Protection 
.Team. She told them the 
man "did nasty stuff to 
me." the report said. She 
repeated to them what 
she had told her mother 
and added that Peek had 
exposed himself to her. 
On Wednesday, the re-
port said, Peek came into 
the sheriff's office and 
admitted to investigators 
that he'd molested the 
girl. but only at her re-
quest. Peek said she had 
seduced him.

Deal reached on school cops' pay 
By MARC FREEMAN 
StasSntharl 
Negotiators Wednesday reached a 
tentative agreement on a new three-
year contract for Palm Beach County 
school police officers. 
It includes a salary freeze for all of 
this year. and the option to reopen nego-
tiations for pay issues for 2010 and 2011. 
The deal, subject to ratification by 
the officer members of the county 
Police Benevolent Association, came 
together alter seven months of sporadic 
talks between the union and the school 
district. School bus drivers, secretar-
ies and other employees had already 
agreed to contracts that did not include 
raises. 
District administrators said bud-
get reductions and the state's weak 
economy prevented them from offering 
salary increases. 
The police contract includes some 
new non-salary benefits for the 144 of-
ficers on the force. including perfect 
attendance awards.

SWINE FLU 
Camp counselor, 
at least one child 
get illness on trip 
The Jewish Community Center sports camp cut 
short their Atlanta visit after symptoms showed. 
By MICHAEL LaFORGIA 
and LONA O'CONNOR 
Palm Beath Post Staff Write., 
A camp counselor and 
at least one child from a 
suburban Boynton Beach 
Jewish Community Cen-
ter sports camp came 
down with swine flu dur-
ing a sports trip to Atlanta 
earlier this week, officials 
said. 
"Several children sub-
sequently began exhibit-
ing flu-like 
symptoms, 
so we cut short the trip," 
JCC spokesman Scott Be-
narde said in a statement 
Thursday. "The group re-
turned to Boynton Beach 
on Wednesday" 
County health officials 
now are watching what 
they are describing as a 
mild outbreak at Hochman 
JCC, at 8500 Jog Road west 
of Boynton Beach. 
"Starting this week, we 
experienced an increase 
in children and counselors 
with flu-like symptoms 
at our camp in Boynton 
Beach." 
Benarde 
said. 
"They were sent home 
and must be symptom free 
for at least 24 hours and 
have a doctor's note before 
returning to camp." 
Health department of-
ficials learned Wednesday 
of several cases among 
summer 
campers 
and 
counselors, said spokes-
man Tim O'Connor 
"One of the counselors 
tested positive and there 
are two other kids we as-
sume are positive," said 
O'Connor, 
adding 
that 
public-health nurses have 
been 
calling 
families 
whose chiklren became 
sick. 
"We're not finding any 
severities," he said. 
O'Connor advised the 
standard response to flu: 
consult a physician and 
stay home if you have 
symptoms. 
JCC camp officials sent 
e-mails to parents this 
week advising families 
to keep sick children at 
home. The Hochman JCC 
has 275 children aged 5 to 
J4 and 35 staffers. 
Benarde said there have 
been no reports of illness 
at the JCC's other camp 
near West Palm Beach.

The new football sta-
dium will be ready for 
the start of the season in 
August. 
Alfred Jones, the school 
district's senior projects 
administrator, said every-
where he goes in Paho-
kee, residents want to talk 
about the projects. 
"I'm stopped on the 
street and people are ask-
ing me questions." Jones 
said. "They're telling me 
how beautiful the stadium 
is and they can't wait for 
the new middle school." 
The school also will 
serve as the city's first 
hurricane shelter. 
Now residents have to 
drive about 10 miles to 
Belle Glade. And while 
that may not seem far. 
Whitaker 
said 
some 
residents brave storms in 
their homes. With a shel-
ter close to home, more 
residents will be safe, he 
said. 
Once middle school 
students move out of the 
high school, some span 
space will be turned into 
a clinic, Jones said. 
Another plus is sepa-
rating the middle and 
high school students. 
"You don't want that 
(seventh) grade girl inter-
mingling with 17-, 18-year-
old boys," Whitaker said.

Kickball fest to aid fallen officers' families 
By JASON SCHULTZ 
Palm Brach Post Ste IVrilir 
ROYAL PALM BEACH — It is an 
American pastime that most people 
haven't played since they were 
pint-sized children on the hallowed 
fiekls and frozen tundras of their 
elementary schools. 
On Sunday, however, dozens of 
full-grown men and women from 
the Palm Beach Sheriff's Office, 
Palm Beach County Fire-Rescue 
and several restaurants will take 
to a Royal Palm Beach field to com-
pete and reclaim their former ath-
letic glory at the game of kickball. 
Scott Cotton, a bartender at Max 
& Erma's in Royal Palm Beach. 
organized the tournament to raise 
money for the families of police offi-
cers and firefighters who lost their 
lives in the line of duty. 
Cotton, the former owner of a 
restaurant in Tampa, said he almost 
became a police officer and likes to 
organize events to help police and 
fire agencies. 
Kickball Fest 
Where: 151 Lamstein Lane, Royal 
Palm Beach 
When: Sunday, 1.7 p.m. 
Cost: $5 
Questions: Email Scott Cotton at 
robkickbaltlestityahoo.com 
"It started as a thing between us 
and Duffy's," but then blossomed 
into a full-blown tournament. Cotton 
said, adding that he chose kickball 
because it required less equipment 
than softball or baseball. 
Deputy Roy DeMarco said 
he will be playing on one of two 
sheriff's office teams — one team 
will be deputies who patrol the Wel-
lington area and the other will be 
those who cover Royal Palm Beach. 
A team from the fire department 
also will play, along with teams 
from Max & Erma, Duffy's, Hoot-
ers and Outback restaurants in the 
Wellington and Royal Palm Beach 
areas, DeMarco said. 
Cotton said the village of Royal 
Palm Beach donated the use of the 
field, and friends and co-workers 
will help organize face paintings 
and raffles to raise money. 
One thing the teams may be 
short on is experience. When asked 
how long it had been since he had 
played kickball, the 43-year-old Cot-
ton simply laughed. 
"Ifs probably been at least 20 
years." he said. 
DeMarco said he hadn't played 
since he was a child. But he said his 
team of Wellington-area deputies 
planned to practice their kickball 
skills this week. 
Cotton said he plans to make 
the tournament ah annual event in 
Royal Palm Beach. 
"If 1 get 50 people I'll be happy," 
he said. "If I get 250 people Ill be 
ecstatic."

Lake Worth must make 
decision on water plant 
77w city has to act soon on a proposed facility to get a $25 million grant. 
By WILLIE HOWARD 
Palm Heath Post Staff ;Enter 
LAKE WORTH — City 
commissioners 
must 
make key decisions soon 
on the proposed reverse-
osmosis water treatment 
plant if they want $2.5 
million in federal stimu-
lus money for plant con-
struction. 
Utility Director Re-
becca Mattey told com-
missioners Tuesday that 
they must decide at the 
July 7 commission meet-
ing whether to build a 
deep injection well and 
must authorize engineer-
ing work to update 2-year-
old plans for the water 
plant if they want to meet 
deadlines for the stimulus 
money. 
The 
4,000-foot-deep 
injection well is needed 
to dispose of the briny 
byproduct of the reverse-
osmosis water treatment 
process, which presses 
salty water from the deep 
aquifer through a mem-
brane to make drinking 
water. 
The city's plans for 
the reverse-osmosis plant 
were tabled two years ago 
after the state denied per-
mits for an ocean outfall 
to dispose of the brine 
water. 
The city already has 
three wells to serve the 
reverse-osmosis 
treat-
ment plant, which it plans 
to build near the existing 
water plant near Lake 
Worth High School. 
If 
the 
commission 
agrees to solicit propos-
als to build the deep 
injection well and autho-
rizes engineering work 
for the reverse-osmosis 
plant design on July 7. bid 
packages for plant con-
struction would be dis-
tributed in early August. 
Bids would be opened 
in early September, and 
commissioners 
would 
award a contract later that 
month. 
To receive the $2.5 
million grant, the water 
plant construction con-
tract must be awarded by 
Oct. 1. 
Commissioners could 
decide whether to pursue 
a plant that will produce 
4.5 million gallons a day 
or scale back to one that 
produces 3 million gallons 
a day. 
Water from the re-
verse-osmosis plant would 
supplement water treated 
at the existing city water 
plant, which draws water 
from shallow wells, Per-
mits call for withdrawals 
from the surface wells to 
gradually decline in the 
years ahead. 
The cost of a 3 million-
gallon plant and a deep 
injection well is estimated 
at $25 million. 
If 
the 
commission 
follows 
the 
schedule 
outlined by Matte% the 
reverse-osmosis 
plant 
should be completed in 
2012. 
Still unknown is how 
much, if any, water the 
city will purchase from 
Palm Beach County un-
der a 2008 agreement. 
The commission voted in 
May not to pay the county 
$6 million due under the 
county water agreement 
and instead attempt to 
rework terms of the con-
tract.

Man, 3 rescue workers hurt after crash 
By ANDREW MARRA 
and KATHLEEN CHAPMAN 
Palms Beath Ibis Staff {Strain 
WEST 
PALM 
BEACH 
— Police on Thursday 
were 
investigating 
a 
crash that sent three city 
firefighters and a pickup 
driver to the hospital late 
Wednesday. 
The pickup driver is 
in critical condition at 
St. Mary's Medical Cen-
ter after officials say he 
smashed a West Palm 
Beach Fire-Rescue truck 
by mowing through a red 
light at the corner of Palm 
Beach Lakes Boulevard 
and Congress Avenue. 
"Apparently, be was in 
bad shape," city spokes-
man Chase Scott said. 
"We had to extricate him 
from the vehicle." 
He said the three fire-
rescue workers were not 
as seriously injured in the 
crash, which happened 
just after 10 p.m., but were 
treated at a local hospital 
as well. 
The city's fire-rescue 
truck 
had 
significant 
damage to its front-left 
side. The impact shat-
tered all the windows on 
the pickup and deployed 
its air bags.' 
"If it had been a family 
in a regular truck they 
would have been dead," 
Scott said.

Greene hopes announcement 
prods Crist to fill seat soon 
► TAYLOR from 1B 
governor has not filled the seat," Greene 
said. "That's why I'm hoping what she 
(Taylor) is doing today will get back to 
the governor and maybe this will make 
him hasten filling the seat." 
Crist spokesman Sterling Ivey said the 
governor's office is following normal pro-
cedures in filling the vacancy: He said he 
did not know a timeline for announcing 
the appointment. 
Greene. who was the county's only 
black commissioner, announced her 
intent to resign in March and said she 
hoped Crist would name a black appoin-
tee to represent minority-dominated 
District 7. The district runs from Lake 
Park to Defray Beach and is 48.4 percent 
black. 5.5 percent Hispanic and 40.1 per-
cent white. 
In April, 
Crist 
in-
terviewed 
four 
black 
candidates: 
Taylor, 
Riv-
iera 
Beach 
Councilwoman Bobbie Brooks, business-
man Randy Johnson and retired educator 
Vincent Goodman. 
Taylor. 59. owns an insurance agency 
and served on the Port of Palm Beach 
commission from 1998 to 2004, when 
she was elected to the state House. Her 
House seat is likely to attract a slew of 
candidates, including at least two people 
who attended her Thursday conference:

reached for comment. The state 
Department of Education released

John E Kennedy Middle, which 
had been an intervene school last

The state switched to the rating

Epstein scheduled 
for release in July 
No EPSTEIN from 111 
Attorneys for women 
now suing Epstein, as well 
as attorneys for The Palm 
Beach Post, had asked Col-
bath to release the deal, 
arguing the public and 
the victims have a right 
to see it. 
"There is nothing more 
fundamentally important 
than for the public and 
press to observe how the 
government is doing its 
job," Post attorney Deanna 
Shullman said. "There 
is great public interest 
in how everybody in this 
case is doing their job." 
Goldberger argued that 
the confidential agreement 
Epstein struck with federal 
prosecutors shoukl remain 
confidential. Included in it, 
Goldberger said, are ref-
erences to federal grand 
jury proceedings, which 
are secret and protected 
by federal rules. A federal 
judge should decide the 
issue, he said. 
Attorneys 
Spencer 
Kuvin and Brad Edwards, 
who represent some of the 
women now suing Epstein, 
both said they were not 
surprised by Epstein's at-
torney moving to appeal. 
"Any chance to stall 
in any way and keep the 
agreement out of public 
disclosure, they will take 
it," said Edwards outside 
court. 
He will have served 
about 13 months of an 
18-month sentence. . 
Epstein pleaded guilty 
nearly one year ago to 
solicitation of prostitution 
and procuring teenagers 
for prostitution and was 
sentenced to 18 months in 
prison. 
A sheriff's office official 
confirmed Thursday that 
Epstein will be released 
from the Palm Beach 
County Stockade on July 
22 — nearly 13 months 
into his sentence. 
Sheriff's office spokes-
person Eric Davis said 
Epstein has earned gain 
time for good behavior 
and for participating in a 
work-release program. 
The saga began years 
ago after Palm Beach po-
lice began investigating 
reports that young women 
were being brought to his 
manse on El Brillo Way to 
massage him and have sex 
with him in exchange for 
money. 
Displeased with the 
way the state attorney's 
office handled the case, 
Palm Beach police later 
forwarded information to 
the Federal Bureau of In-
vestigation.

Dog-Gone Tale: Destiny's 
Stand. 
A kids movie about a 
courageous shelter dog 
and her young human 
friends, it's the first 
feature with a student 
crew shot at G-Star or 
anywhere. 
"On the first two mov-
ies, (the production) came 
in with a whole crew set 
and the students were 
interns, but now they're 
doing everything," Haupt-
ner said, as Tony-winning 
actor Barry Bostwick, 
who plays the movie's 
villain, conferred with 
screenwriter/actor Ron 
Palillo, who has grayer 
hair but the same face he 
had 30 years ago when he 
was Welcome Back Kotter's 
Arnold Horshack. 
Palillo and Bostwick 
are being paid for their 
participation per the 
rules of the Screen Actors 
Guild, but are donat-
ing their salaries to the 
school's scholarship foun-
dation. 
"The purpose of this is 
education and an experi-
ence (the kids) can use 
for their whole careers," 
said Bostwick, best 
known as the dim-bulb 
mayor on TV's Spin City 
and his Tony-winning role 
in Broadway's The Robber 
Bridegroom. "It's OK if we 
have to block (a scene) 
three or four times if 
they're learning" 
The student crew of 
about 100 is working in 
every conceivable position 
on the film. Many of them 
skipped going to camp 
and taking paying jobs to 
work long days, tote equip-
ment and sweat during 
many outdoor shots. 
"My mom said it was 
either this or surf camp. 
And I really wanted to go 
to surf camp," said Ashley 
Hudak, 15, a student script 
supervisor and actor from 
West Palm Beach. "But 
I'm glad I did this."

they arc going to replace 
almost 8 percent of the vil-

"That's a big whack," 
Village Manger Jimmy

be difficult to find money 
for new videos." 
Village police arrested 
Edward Walters, 39, and 
Elaine Ruiz 40, both of

Wind Drive on charges 
they stole 42 videos from 
the library on Anchorage

recently vanished. 
Librarians, after an au-
dit, reported to police that 
192 videos from the collec-

between June 1 and June 
11. The stolen videos are 
valued at about $4,800.

Home builders help stocks up 
NEW YORK — Investors rushed back 
into stocks as profits at a handful of 
companies indicated the economy might 
be gaining strength. Gains in home 
builders, retailers and other consumer 
discretionary stocks led the market 
sharply higher Thursday. 
THE MORNING LINE 
New Jobless claims increase 
wkiiiim; ION —The Labor Depart-
ment said Thursday that new jobless 
claims jumped unexpectedly last week. 
And the number of people continuing 
to receive unemployment aid rose more 
than expected. 
The figures indicate that jobs remain 
scarce even as the economy shows 
some signs of recovering from the lon-
gest recession since World War II. 
A revised reading on gross domestic 
product — the broadest measure of the 
nation's output — said the economy 
posted a 5.5 percent annualized decline 
from January through March. That 
was slightly better than the 5.7 percent 
estimate made a month ago. 
Mortgage rates up slightly 
WksilINKITON —11w average rate 
for a 30-year fixed mortgage was 5.42 
percent, up from 5.38 percent a week 
earlier, mortgage company Freddie Mac 
said Thursday. Rates on 30-year mort-
gages fell to a record low of 4.78 percent 
earlier this year. But then they rose as 
high as 5.6 percent earlier this month 
after yields on long-term government 
debt, which are tied to mortgages rate, 
climbed as investors worried that the 
huge surplus of government debt hitting 
the market could trigger inflation. 
AIG to reduce debt by S25 billion 
NEW YORK - American International 
Group Inc. said Thursday it will reduce 
outstanding federal loans by $25 billion 
by giving the government a preferred 
stake in two units that will be spun 
off front the insurance giant. AIG is 
placing two life insurance subsidiaries 
— American International Assurance 
Co. and American Life Insurance Co. 
— into special purpose vehicles ahead 
of planned initial public offerings. As 
part of the plan, the Federal Reserve 
Bank of New York will receive preferred 
interests in the SPVs which will eventu-
ally be independent companies once a 
public offering is compkt.d. 
Oil up on positive economic news 
NEW YORK — Oil prices jumped above 
$70 a barrel Thursday after the govern-
ment said that the economy may be far-
ing better than previously thought. In a 
revised reading on gross domestic prod-
uct in the first quarter, the Commerce 
Department reported a 5.5 percent an-
nualized decline front January to March. 
rather than the 5.7 percent it reported 
a month ago. The slowing economy has 
slashed demand for energy as factories 
shut down and 'fewer people drive to 
work or take leisure trips. 
Lennar's orders up, stock surges 
MIAMI - Stuart Miller, CEO of Len-
nar Corp.. tried to temper enthusiasm 
about a housing market recovery, but 
investors zeroed in on one number a 
63 percent spike in new home orders 
between the builder's first and second 
quarters. While Lennar still posted a 
slightly wider quarterly loss, its stock 
jumped 17 percent (NYSE: $9.19) and 
led the entire sector in a rally Thursday.

On Capitol Hill, he 
denies coercing Bank of 
America to buy Merrill. 
ByJEANNINE AVERSA 
The Associated Piss 
WASHINGEON 
— Facing 
an unusual political trial. 
Federal Reserve Chairman 
Ben Bernanke disputed ac-
cusations Thursday that he 
pressured Bank of America 
to acquire Merrill Lynch in 
a deal that cost taxpayers $20 
billion. 
In a three-hour hearing of 
the House Oversight and Gov-
ernment Reform Committee, 
Bernanke denied threaten-
ing to oust Bank of America

bank's board members if they 
abandoned the takeover after

1 never said that I would 
replace the board and man-
agement" if Lewis decided to 
invoke a clause in the acqui-
sition contract to try to stop 
the deal, Bemanke told the 
committee. 
It was Bernanke's first 
public response since the 
committee launched an in-
vestigation into whether he 
or other government officials 
bullied Bank of America to 
stick with its plan to combine 
the two financial powers.

questions — unusual for a 
Fed chief, who typically com-

Of Bernanke's denial that 
he threatened Lewis' job, Rep. 
Jason Chaffetz R-Utah, said: 
-With all due respect, I'm just 
not buying that."

'We are using T-shirts as a vehicle to help the community.' says Jeff Firestone, who created his Boca 
Raton business ChanTEES when he began to print T-shirts at a discount for local charities. 
ChariTEES helps 
printer, groups thrive 
By TRACEY McMANUS 
Palm Broth Port Sae venter 
BOCA RA1T/N —When his 
tJxtile business slammed 
to a halt in 1998, Jeff Fire-
stone looked around at the 
idle printing machines in 
his Miami warehouse and 
thought he had become a 
feast-to-famine story. 
His financial partner of 
eight years had just backed 
out of their T-shirt produc-
tion business, leaving Fire-
stone needing a plan —and 
a use — for his printing 
equipment. 
He needed a niche mar-
ket. And when he began 
offering to print T-shirts at 
least 25 percent below mar-
ket rates for the events of 
local charities, ChariTEES 
was born. 
Since relocating to Boca 
Raton in 2000, ChariTEES 
has printed T-shirts for 
hundreds of charities na-
tionwide with its low-cost 
pitch, and has donated thou-
sands of dollars in products 
and cash to Palm Beach 
County charities. 
"I believe in taking my 
profits and putting it back 
in the community," Fires-
tone said. "There's a major 
disparity in this county of 
the haves and have-nots, 
and I want to equal that 
disparity."

revenue to local and nation-
al charities, which came 
to $30,000 in donations in 
2008. 
The 57-year-old veteran 
of the printing industry 
chooses the charities that 
receive his donations on a 
need basis. But often when 
charities buy T-shirts from 
ChariTEES, donations fol-
low, he said. 
For instance, he donated 
50 shirts and $400 towards 
a carousel for Child Life 
Institute's pediatric center 
Christmas Party last year. 
And when Elinor Joseph-
son bought nearly 1,000 
shirts for staff and campers 
for the 2009 JCC Ted Weis-
berg camp in Boca Raton. 
she also received a $350 do-
nation to help support the 
camp's lunch program. 
"What he gave us was 
the financial ability to help 
feed those kids," Josephson 
said. 
His low prices have 
given him an edge in the 
2 billion garment print-
ing industry, 
attracting 
business from Chicago's 
DePaul University and The 
National Coalition for the 
Homeless in Washington. 
Firestone does most of 
the networking, but he has 
recently hired sales repre-
sentatives in Chicago. New 
York and Los Angeles on 
the condition they donate 5 
percent of their yearly com-
missions to the charities of 
their choice. 
By the end of this year, 
Firestone also plans to 
launch LiberTEES, a T-
shirt printing company 
that uses all US. made 
materials and will employ 
Iraq war veterans as sales 
representatives. 
"We are using T-shirts as 
a vehicle to help the com-
munity," Firestone said. "It 
started as a business, but 
now it's a labor of love."

Stanford 
pleads 
not guilty 
to fraud 
Prosecutors say he's a 
flight risk and want 
him held without bail.

HOUSTON 
— 
Texas 
billionaire R. Allen Stan-
ford pleaded not guilty 
Thursday to charges he 
swindled investors out of 
$7 billion as part of a mas-
sive investment scam. 
Stanford entered his 
plea during his arraign-
ment in federal court. The 
financier was indicted on 
charges that his interna-
tional banking empire was 
really just a colossal Ponzi 
scheme. 
Laura Pendergest-Holt. 
Gilberto Lopez and Mark 
Kuhrt, three executives 
with the now defunct 
Houston-based 
Stanford 
Financial Group who were 
indicted along with their 
former boss, also entered 
not guilty pleas. 
At 
a 
bond hearing 
shortly after the execu-
tives' arraignment, pros-
ecutors argued Stanford 
should be held without bail 
as he awaits trial on fraud 
charges because he might 
have access to billions of 
dollars in secret funds. 
Prosecutor Paul Pelleti-
er said investigators found 
a secret Swiss account 
Stanford controlled that 
was drained of more than 
$100 million in December 
2008.

Boca supplement firm to refund $10 million 
By SUSAN SALISBURY 
Palm Kraal Post Staff Wnter 
A Boca Raton-based com-
pany that markets non-pre-
scription dietary and health 
supplements, including acai 
berry 
supplements, 
has 
refunded almost $10 million 
to 
customers 
nationwide, 
Florida Attorney General I3ill 
McCollum said Thursday. 
The attorney general's of-
fice said it reached a settle-
ment with Aton Solutions and 
its subsidiaries that resolves 
allegations sin-rounding 15-
day free trials of its products. 
Customers were unable to 
cancel their subscriptions 
before being continuously 
billed a monthly fee of $80 or 
Aton's customers were unable to cancel a free trial. 
more for products that they 
neither ordered nor wanted. 
In March, the Washington-
based Center for Science in 
the Public Interest issued a 
warning to consumers not 
to enroll online in suppos-
edly free trials for acai berry 
products, and said there is no 
evidence to suggest that acai 
pills will help shed pounds, 
flatten tummies or perform 
any of the other commonly 
advertised functions. 
Customers 
who 
filed 
complaints with the attorney 
general's' office claimed they 
were unable to contact the 
company or its subsidiaries 
— (;IC LLC, Sig. Nutrition 
LW, Globalnet Pharmacies 
LW and Glades Distribution 
Services — by telephone, 
e-mail or through the com-
pany's Web sites to cancel 
future orders. 
Under the settlement with 
the attorney general's office, 
Aton and its subsidiaries have 
agreed to openly describe all 
terms and conditions of trial 
offers on the company's Web 
site and will disclose how and 
when th 
returned. The company also 
must maintain enough per-
sonnel to field cancellation 
requests. 
The company has cooper-
ated in the investigation that 
began in December and has 
said it will continue to issue 
refunds to any customers 
who have complaints. 
Earlier this year, The 
Better Business Bureau of 
South Florida gave Aton and 
its related companies an "V'

Energy drink wars 
heat up with `shots' 
By JOE GUY COWER 
Palm Beads Past-Car News Smut 
ATLANTA — Carl Sper-
ber, creative director for 
Living Essentials, has at 
least one theory for why 
his company's 5-Hour En-
ergy shots have gained a 
foothold in the competitive 
energy drink segment. 
Its tiny 2-ounce bottles 
are marketed 
with 
a 
straightforward 
pitch 
designed to reach adults, 
Sperber said. The broader 
energy drink market, led 
by the likes of Red Bull, 
Monster, 
Rockstar and 
AMP, takes a different ap-
proach, he said. 
'If you look at the 
canned energy drink ar-
ray out there, if you look 
at the names, if you look at 
the graphics on the cans, 
it's obvious who they have 
in mind for this — teen-
age boys," Sperber said. 
"I have teenage boys at 
home, and they're the last 
people on Earth who need 
more energy." 
Since its launch in 2004, 
5-Hour has carved out a 
niche in the energy drink 
market that's added a new 
twist to the segment and 
attracted plenty of compe-
tition from bigger players. 
These shots, sold in 
2- or 3-Ounce capsules 
depending on the brand, 
pack

punch as larger canned 
energy drinks. 
For 
the 
12 
weeks 
through mid-May, 5-Hour 
Energy accounted for 9 
percent of energy drink 
sales 
at 
convenience 
stores, according to Bev-
erage Digest, a New York-
based trade publication. 
That placed it behind only 
larger canned versions of 
Red Bull and Monster En-
ergy and well ahead of any 
other energy shot. 
Other major players are 
moving in. Red Bull re-
cently launched an energy 
shot. NOS, a Coke brand, 
has a shot and Monster, 
distributed by Coke, has 
a smaller version called 
Hitman. 
Energy shots are the 
second major product for 
Living Essentials, based 
in Farmington Hills, Mich. 
In 2001, Living Essentials 
launched Chaser, a pill the 
company says can help 
prevent hangovers. 
He faces possible life sentence if convicted 
► STANFORD from 6B 
its affiliated bank on the Caribbean 
island of Antigua. testified nearly 
$1.2 billion of the S7 billion Stanford 
and his co-defendants are accused 
of bilking from investors can't be 
accounted for 
in court documents filed Thurs-
day, prosecutors also said Stanford 
faces a potential life sentence, has 
access to a private jet and has an 
international network of wealthy 
acquaintances who would help him, 
including one who recently agreed 
to give him $36,000 to pay his lease 
on a Houston apartment for a year 
Dick DeGuerin, Stanford's at-
torney, objected to Pelletier char-
acterizing the account as secret, 
saying it was known to Stanford's 
employees. 
81.2 billion of alleged scam 
still unaccounted for. 
"It's designed to prejudice poten-
tial jurors who will hear this case," 
DeGuerin said. 
DeGuerin argued in court docu-
ments that Stanford is not a flight 
risk and highlighted his charity 
efforts, including his work with a 
foundation for single mothers in 
Antigua, strong ties to his children 
and amicable relationships with the 
mothers of his children as examples 
of his strong character. 
Stanford has been in federal 
custody since he was arrested in 
Virginia on June 18. 
Stanford denies allegations he 
defrauded investors, but tried to 
surremkt to federal authorities 
in the months before his indict-
ment was handed down last week. 
Authorities couldn't take him into 
custody until charges were filed. 
Stanford was returned to Texas 
on Tuesday. 
Each of the most serious counts 
that Stanford faces carry prison 
terms of up to 20 years. But pros-
ecutors say sentencing guidelines 
could increase his total sentence to 
life in prison. 
The billionaire and the execu-
tives are accused of orchestrating 
a fraud by misusing most of the $7 
billion they advised clients to invest 
in certificates of deposit from the 
Stanford international Bank. based 
on the Caribbean island of Antigua.

to link him to the Obama adminis-

meddling in private industry. 
it's an odd shift, because Ber-
nanke is a Republican appointee, 
and many of his key advocates 
are Democrats. And it comes at a 
pivotal time: Bernanke's term ex-
pires early next year, and President 
Obama will have to decide whether 
to pick his own Fed chief or re-
appoint Bernanke. 
The Fed chairman said it would 
have been a bad idea for Bank of 
America to invoke the deal's escape 
clause, because it would have led to 
costly litigation with Merrill Lynch. 
That would have "gi-eatly reduced 
or destroyed" the value of the in-
vestment bank, he said.

This month, Lewis testified that 
his job had been threatened after he 
expressed second thoughts about 
the deal. Lewis said the Treasury 
secretary at the time, Henry Paul-
son, and federal regulators made 
clear that if Charlotte-N.C.-based 
Bank of America Corp. reneged on 
its promise, he and the bank's board 
members would be fired.

would violate Lewis fiduciary duty
