Flatiron Systems LLC Owner Pleads Guilty to Mail Fraud
In United States v. Howard, investment company owner David Eugene Howard has pleaded guilty to mail fraud charges. He is accused of engaging in a financial scam that obtained about $1.8 million from investors.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has submitted an enforcement action against Howard.
