This guy should have received 25 years in jail, minimum!

Look at the huge disparity here between a fine from the SEC for these guys and 15 years in Jail for the National Storm pump.

Did John Briner make a deal for ratting out Jean-Francios Amyot and other crooks running the Vancouver/Montreal crime spree that dumped billions of counterfeit shares from over 50 illegally hijacked public companies? What about the dented head mongoloid freak?

WOW, less charges for others which received far more harsh penalties, who is on his side?

The five-year ban applies to both penny stock offerings and to roles as an officer or director of a public company. .
So what? $92500 fine. how many times has this fellows name appeared on the SEC list. Isn't there supposed to be some kind of penalty. So he is still a practising lawyer and life goes on. Good for him!!!!!

Why did Canada extradite the king of pot to face criminal charges and jail in the US?
The US had no jurisdiction over the man but Canada's authorities rolled over and delivered.
Afghanistan's drug trade is the CIA's main source of funding. Canadian soldiers are dying there to protect the drug trading interests of the CIA.
So sad.

Why did Phillip Offill get 8 years in jail and John Briner only a slap on the wrist? John Briner is one of the worst securities violator to ever work out of Vancouver!

Briner sold $52,488 worth of shares at $3.70 a shares which works to about 14,000 shares. This represents a very small fraction of the 35 million shares issued and outstanding.
I imagine the SEC is going after the the person(s) who actually sold millions of shares? Jay Budd must be feeling pretty nervous...
