If TECO is under this kind of scrutiny the most recent series of unfortunate events should make management/principals very wary.
People who have experienced dealing with the SEC know that the SEC doesn't swoop in and arrest anybody without having established a rock solid case and that can take time.
There is a lot for them to oversee and the more complaints they get the more resources they can allocate to the discovery of potential violators.
Sometimes it can take over a year if not more. Its usually just a matter of time.
TECO is good at hyping misinformation to shareholders, but its a double edged sword.
