Repeat Offender in the Investment Jungle

In the 1990s Charles Howard's stock manipulations helped sink two banks. He served three years in prison and was barred from serving as an investment adviser.

By 2002 he was back in business as…an investment adviser. Now he's been sentenced to seven to twenty years for a second round of fraudulent activities.

After three years, the Monadnock Ledger-Transcript reports, he may be eligible for home confinement. Let's hope his return to wealth management takes a little longer.
