This particular investigation(s), charges, and convictions for these connected people have been going on for some time. There actually was a forth penny stock that was originally involved and one could presume still in the investigations books. IPWG (International Power Group), the company so touted as the poster boy to go after the DTCC. To this date it doesn't seem that the NO BID, no trading stock has chosen to reveal more of their books to do any fighting in the courts towards the DTCC, volunteer any further actions with the SEC, or further expose anymore connections than they already have. Definitely are not coming out of any NO BID or no trading situation for the left over bag holders of the stock.
"Two companies based in Tulsa at the time of the scheme were among those whose stock was manipulated: Deep Rock Oil & Gas Inc., and Global Beverage Solutions Inc., formerly known as Pacific Peak Investments. The third company, National Storm Management Group Inc., is based in Glen Ellyn, Ill.......... ......Gordon was also convicted today of one count of wire fraud and one count of obstruction of justice in connection with a fourth penny stock, that of International Power Group Ltd., based in New Jersey. The government is also seeking criminal forfeiture of $2.74 million from Gordon in connection with the wire fraud involving the fourth penny stock." http://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/2010/May/10-crm-515.html
Some investigations spread as far as to a TA (National Stock Transfer) in which NSMG (National Storm Management Group) was a part of and essentially shutting down dozens of pinkies that were coded as non-transferable by the DTCC. http://www.dtcc.com/downloads/legal/imp_notices/2011/dtc/ope/1270-11.pdf
I definitely don't believe this latest fraud case appearance will be the last one we see. The amount of files that the SEC and other Federal authorities must have with this group must be enormous and it doesn't appear that this now around eight years of investigations and evidence and multitude of charges and indictments are at all closed or ended.
