Dennis Kucinich is trying to determine which federal agency told the SEC to stand down with regard to Allen Stanford in 2006.

Which agency?

Well, last Tuesday (17 February 2009), Allen Stanford was unable to charter a private jet to take him from Houston to Antigua. Then, of all the places he could have gone, where did he turn up two days later?

Virginia. With an unidentified woman. At a private residence. With the FBI waiting for him at that private residence.

Some guesses:

Maybe he had to come in from the cold to get instructions on how this was going to play out. He wants to stay alive. He wants his family to stay alive. Obviously, he’s not going to talk on the phone. So he drives, and drives and winds up in Virginia.

Sure, it could be a Coincidence that Virginia just happens to be the home of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency… But why Virginia, of all places?

To meet the CIA case officer who has been tasking him?

Who was the unidentified woman in the car? Is she his handler? I doubt that his handler would show up for a meeting with the J Edgars, but who knows what arrangements were made?

Where is Allen Stanford right now? “…A day later Stanford was nowhere to be seen in the historic Virginia town.”

Questions, questions.

This has to get rolled up. This has to go away.

UPDATE: The Woman’s Name is Andrea Stoelker, She’s Stanford’s Girlfriend

This is just too much:

Texas billionaire Allen Stanford was nowhere to be seen on Friday in this historic Virginia town, site of a fierce battle in the American Civil War and reputed through local lore to be haunted. … According to a local tour operator, Fredericksburg has a reputation as “one of the most haunted locales in the United States.” “With a long history dating back to preColonial times, and a legacy of slavery and war, it is no wonder that so many unhappy phantoms wander the streets,” the tour operator says in promotional material.

I guess it’s fair to say that Fredericksburg is a pretty spooky place! *wink*

Via: Bloomberg:

Two days after being accused of massive fraud, billionaire R. Allen Stanford surfaced in a Virginia community about 50 miles south of Washington.

Federal Bureau of Investigation agents were waiting yesterday at a residence in the Fredericksburg area when Stanford’s car pulled up, according to a person familiar with what transpired. The FBI then served him court papers. He was described as cooperative and cordial.

Stanford, 58, accused by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission this week of running a “massive, ongoing fraud,” was served with papers related to an SEC civil filing against him and the Stanford Financial Group. Stanford, whose whereabouts were unknown to the SEC earlier in the week, was found with an unidentified woman.
