Ex CFO on a penny stock pump and dump running kannalife!!! Who in the right mind would hire a guy affiliated with Stratton Oakmont. I smell scam!

Dean Petkanas, who plans to seek a state license, was a chief financial officer at Stratton Oakmont, the penny-stock boiler room operation depicted in “The Wolf of Wall Street”; Mr. Petkanas now runs a “phyto-medical company” called KannaLife Sciences that hopes to get F.D.A. approval of a cannabis-based treatment for two types of brain encephalopathy. At the conference, he wore a pinstripe three-piece suit and spoke in torrents.

“I did a lot of pharmaceutical work on Wall Street when I was in boutique investment banking,” he said, skipping over his time at Stratton Oakmont. “I spent a lot of time in merchant banking. I really dug in hard.” Shares of KannaLife’s parent company, Medical marijuana Inc., have fallen by more than half since earlier this year.
