EXCLUSIVE, August 8 - In
the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York on August 9, a

"deceiving an investor into
investing millions of dollars
in a putative financial
transaction" with his company,
"Trombetta Group" which had a
JPM Chase account.
Elting was
given a public-funded lawyer
