Stanford Financial Group’s Chief Investment Officer Laura Pendergest-Holt formally denied she defrauded investors in what regulators claim was an $8 billion Ponzi scheme run by billionaire R. Allen Stanford.
In court papers filed late yesterday, Pendergest-Holt, 35, denied every allegation in the civil fraud suit filed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission against her, Stanford and Chief Financial Officer James M.
