Charges possible in Denver Ponzi case
DENVER, -- Alleged Ponzi scheme operator Sean Mueller in Denver may soon face criminal charges connected to the loss of $122 million, a source told the Denver Post.
Mueller's financial troubles came to light in the spring, when he sent an e-mail message to clients expressing his regrets over the loss of their money and saying his only option was to commit suicide.
State regulators filed suit against Mueller in April and froze his assets, seizing $15 million although Mueller Capital Management financial statements from four months earlier claimed the company held $122 million in assets.
Neither Rick Kornfeld, Mueller's attorney, nor Denver Chief Deputy District Attorney Joe Morales would comment on the possibility of criminal charges being filed, the Post reported.
