It just keeps getting sleazier for the HESG scam ...

HESG's last opinion letter was written by attorney Joseph L. Pittera in 2012. The same Pittera who the SEC recently filed a complaint against, charging Pittera with issuing baseless and incorrect attorney opinion letters in violation of Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act of 1933.

We discover that the SEC hits HESG's opinion letter attorney, Joseph L. Pittera, for registration violations as a TRADER. He traded shares in a penny stock without registering them, based fully on faulty opinion letters that the attorney, Pittera, himself wrote opining they were free trading. In fact these shares required a six month holding period although Pittera sold them immediately.
