I was wondering why this wasn't included in Turino's decision....

U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
Litigation Release No. 20830 / December 15, 2008
SEC v. Pinnacle Business Management, Inc. et al., Civ. No. 8:02-CV-822-T-EAJ (M.D. Fla.)
SEC Seeks Contempt Against Jeffrey G. Turino for Violating Penny Stock Bar and Obtains Ex Parte Asset Freeze and Extension of Penny Stock Bar

The Commission announced today that, following an ex parte hearing held on December 4, 2008, Judge Elizabeth A. Kovachevich of the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida issued an order directing Jeffrey G. Turino to show cause why the Court should not hold him in contempt for violating a five-year penny stock bar entered against him on December 5, 2003, as part of a settlement of an earlier Commission enforcement action. The penny stock bar prohibited Turino from participating in any penny stock offering. In the December 4th order, the Court finds that the Commission had made a sufficient and proper showing that Turino had violated this bar by participating in penny stock offerings of Biotech Medics, Inc., Equitable Mining Corp., Global Diamond Exchange, Inc., Grand Entertainment and Music, Inc. and OMDA Oil and Gas, Inc. The Commission had previously issued orders temporarily suspending the trading in the securities of two of these companies, Equitable Mining Corp. and Global Diamond Exchange.

The order directs Turino to show cause why the Court should not hold him in contempt, should not require him to disgorge the unlawful proceeds from selling shares obtained in penny stock offerings, and should not make him subject to a permanent penny stock bar. Further, the order freezes certain bank and brokerage accounts held or controlled by, or in the name of Melissa Spooner, Robert Leslie, Mountain Passages, Inc., Austin Funding, LLC and CRL Holdings, Inc. Finally, the order extends the penny stock bar against Turino pending a final hearing on the show cause order.
