re:Richard Molinsky->SEC BARS SIX FORMER D.H. BLAIR BROKERS FROM THE SECURITIES INDUSTRY On May 5, the Commission issued an order barring six former stockbrokers at now-defunct broker-dealer D.H. Blair & Co., from associating with any broker or dealer. The six individuals - Robin Breitner, John DiBella, Raymond Hernandez, Richard Molinsky, Richard Smith and Richard Gaydos - consented to the issuance of the order, which was based on criminal convictions obtained by the Manhattan District Attorney's Office after an investigation by that office and the Commission staff. Each of the six brokers pleaded guilty to and was convicted of at least one count of violating the Martin Act - the New York state general business law - for market manipulation and fraudulent sales practices. People of New York v. D.H. Blair, et al., Ind. No. 3282/00.
In connection with their pleas, the six brokers were sentenced to probation and five of them paid a total of $1,987,500 in restitution to defrauded investors. Specifically, Breitner paid $175,000, DiBella paid $40,000, Gaydos paid $97,500, Molinsky paid $1,500,000, and Smith paid $175,000. In addition, each of the six brokers was required to perform between 1,200 and 1,500 hours of community service.
Last December, in separate administrative proceedings, the Commission revoked D.H. Blair & Co.'s broker-dealer registration and barred four former D.H. Blair officers -Kenton Wood, Alan Stahler, Kalman Renov and Vito Capotorto - from associating with any broker or dealer. See Rels. 34-47070, 34-47071, 34-47072, 34-47074, and 34-47073.
