You can’t tell me you didn’t at least suspect it a little bit. Can you? I mean look at that picture. Those are not the looks of a group unable to find good stimulants.
The SEC’s fraud charges may be the least of accused financial scammer R. Allen Stanford’s worries. Federal authorities tell ABC News that the FBI and others have been investigating whether Stanford was involved in laundering drug money for Mexico’s notorious Gulf Cartel.

connections to the cartel, antigua, venezuela… we wont be hearing from him anytime soon
“kinda grabs ya by the boo boo don’t it?”
no, we won’t be hearing from him anytime soon, especially if he happened ti LOSE a lot of the cartel’s money
Trying to avoid getting killed is the new killing it.
Those mexicans don’t mess around. Anyone seen mexican news recently?
” Say hello to my little friend “
Sir Sticky Wickets will be fine, he was an Agency asset the whole time. He’s getting plastic surgery right now, unless Richard Gere stops him before he kills again
Gulf Cartel? Daaaamn.
Bad dudes. Don’t rip off drug gangs that routinely shoot it out with the army.
@6
I thought that was John Travolta in face-off?
That’s Emma Prior, wife of Englands wicketkeeper – and Alistair Cook’s girlfriend. Stimulants? They’re married to CRICKETERS…
Ha, ha. Am forwarding this to the Sun newspaper. These are the wives of England cricketers. You will have a lawsuit on your hands before you can tell us what is happening on CNBC.

Wouldn’t you?
he just went from house arrest to a bone me in the A** prison
10-lighten up francis
@8
that works too. i was thinking the Jackal
the world is filled with a$$clowns…speaking of which, chaz was pumping no less than 3 restaurants this morning. why does ge keep him on the payroll if he’s going to give away ad time for free?
Its been rumored that he does poppers with Gaspacino in the Equinox steam room too.
@6– i think a mickey rourke face would be easier to replicate.
Weed – the Mexican t-bill.
they won’t hit him. In fact, if anything, they’ll help to hide him.
The concept of too big too fail applies to criminal organizations as well.
If he fears death, he’ll talk. If he talks, then the feds have a case.
@10 good thing the pic came from that paper then, right? idiot.
The Mexican Soup Maker will be paying him a visit shortly.
@10
A shitty paper tabloid suing an online tabloid?
I’d buy tickets to that!
I was always suspect of this guy. A Texan with no class all of a sudden into cricket and leading the way Twenty/Twenty matches. He never fit the bill and just looked wrong in these circles.
guy looks like he just did a fatty rail to the face off one of them ho’s hoohasssss
There must be a way to keep douche bags like 10 on yahoo. Really starting to piss me off.
10, go back to Thomas Cooley. Or perhaps undergrad B-law.
Si yo me encuentro este hijo de p*ta, puedes estar seguro que me lo ch*ngo yo mismo. El me va decir donde escondio la plata o lo llenaré de plomo, ese bruto, estúpido, pendejo, baboso hijo de su pinche madre. No vale ni medio peso de mierda, ni vivo, ni muerto si no nos muestra el dinero.
¿Antigua? mis huevos que.
Sincerely,
The Juarez Cartel
“A video posted on the firm’s web-site shows Stanford…being hugged by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and praised by former President Bill Clinton for helping to finance a convention-related forum and party put on by the National Democratic Institute. ”
“Stanford Financial was listed as the “lead benefactor” for the gathering, and Stanford was permitted to address the audience of several hundred. ”
“Stanford contributed $150,000 to underwrite the event, said NDI president Kenneth Wollack. More recently, Stanford gave $5,000 to help pay for a luncheon hosted by the group.”
Hope and Change indeed…
@19 – They will hide him six feet under.
He will live as long as he has their money and can get it back. If he lost it, or can’t get it, they have no more use for him. He can’t launder any more money, and he may still be caught or talk to cut a deal.
He becomes a liability, and it is just safer to turn him into soup.
@ Portable
Shhhh, how dare you expose the obvious hypocrisy in Washington?!?!
Now I bet you’re gonna tell us that 1/2 of Congress and 65% of D.C. pols were invested with Stanford.
Sir Stanfy is now hiding in Tijuana and playing catch with a donkey.
@ portable
come on, don’t cherrypick. 2 sides to a coin:
“Stanford and his companies gave $128,500 to the Republican National Committee, plus $2,000 to Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.), $4,000 to Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), $4,000 to Rep. Charles Gonzalez (D-Texas), $4,000 to Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) and $4,800 to the committees of Rep. Charles B. Rangel (D-N.Y.), among other contributions.”
“Cornyn also reported that Stanford Financial Group paid $7,441.00 in travel, lodging and meal expenses to fly him and his wife to Antigua in November, 2004.”
@trojan
“A total of $1.56 million was given to Democrats, according to OpenSecrets.org. Republicans received $840,000.”
TGFD suspects that Stanford, his wife and any kids will all be turned into soup. The family members will all go first so Stanford can watch.
Can’t say that I give a shit about any of them, though.
The Guy from Delaware
20,
Did the story in that paper say that these women socialized with Stanford in order to get coke? Are you at all familiar with UK libel law?
@36
You’re an idiot. I suggest you re-read the story posted. Do you see anywhere where these bimbos are said to have taken coke?
Next.
Once the cartel finishes off Stanford will they please go over to 64th and Lex. A certain someone who Made Off with their money is still around and seems to be unconcerned about his fate
Good god, 36, please have an accident soon, you are such an ASS!!!
“they won’t hit him. In fact, if anything, they’ll help to hide him.
The concept of too big too fail applies to criminal organizations as well.

you dumb shit the best way to hide him is to bury his ass under 500 ft of ocean. you really think that if he was laundering money knowingly, and wind broke of this matter, that they wouldn’t have someone within a few hours of him that could stop by and trail him at all times, as well as monitoring his communications? it’s not like it’s fucking complicated.
heh heh. He said “broke wind.”
36 – Thanks for playing.
