Now, the SEC says the firm's explanation was false, and, for several months
leading up to Sentinel's August 13 letter, the firm suffered losses due to its
"undisclosed use of leverage, commingling and misappropriation of clients'
securities."

16:20 08/20 =WSJ: SEC Files Fraud Charges Against Sentinel Mgmt
Regulators allege the Northbrook, Ill., firm misappropriated investors' funds
by mixing their assets into a house account without alerting them, according to
a complaint filed in federal court in Chicago. Sentinel then hid those losses
from clients by providing them with misleading account statements, the SEC
alleges.
