The reason Ike went dark is likely to avoid the Alcoa legal team (dumb), and maybe also try to evade repayment (even more dumb).
You remember I always said Ike was a smart crook, at least smart enough not to get nailed, but this time he overplayed his hand. I read the entire brief, and while Ike might screw the lives of penny stock gamblers in his various scams, he's not going to rip off Alcoa or NYISO, and get away with it.
There's at a minimum breach of contract and fraud on the civil side. Likely much more, and then it'll become a criminal case.
