4 MR. COSTA: Are we ready, Judge?

5 THE COURT: Yes, we're ready.1 0 : 0 6

6 MR. COSTA: Judge, the next witness is an individ ual

7 named Henry Amadio, who was an accountant at Stan ford

8 Financial. He told us just a couple of weeks ago that -- he

9 was initially represented by Jimmy Ardoin. The g overnment

10 contacted Mr. Ardoin in 2010, about a year after the charges1 0 : 0 6

11 were filed, said we would like to talk to Mr. Ama dio.

12 Jimmy said: Well, now, at this point we're in

13 with Laura Holt. We should -- I'm going to tell Henry to find

14 another attorney.

15 He ended up hiring Mike Hinton's firm, and that's1 0 : 0 6

16 who represents him today. Mr. Amadio just told u s within the

17 last couple of weeks that when he was -- when Mr. Ardoin give

18 him recommendations, one of the names he gave him was Mr. Fazel

19 and he did meet Mr. Fazel for --

20 THE COURT: He what?1 0 : 0 6

21 MR. COSTA: This witness, Mr. Amadio, met with

22 Mr. Fazel when he was shopping around for lawyers . And they

23 had a -- I don't know the details of the discussi on; but they

24 met one day, had a discussion. And he obviously decided to

25 hire Mr. Hinton. He was -- never retained Mr. Fa zel but --1 0 : 0 7

1 MR. FAZEL: Judge, I don't even remember the meet ing1 0 : 0 7

2 and nor do we have files or anything in the offic e. And the

3 way I know that is because our server blew up rig ht after we

4 were appointed to represent Mr. Stanford. So, th ere's no

5 documentation to that effect. I don't recall the meeting, and1 0 : 0 7

6 I don't know if Robert even --

7 MR. SCARDINO: I went out there and shook his han d

8 right before we came in. He said: I've met you before.

9 I said: I'm sorry. I don't recall.

10 He said: No, I talked to your partner. 1 0 : 0 7

11 So, I asked Ali. And Ali says: No, I don't

12 remember him but I'll -- there was no engagement letter, no

13 fees --

14 MR. COSTA: The government doesn't think it's a

15 problem. We just think, in an abundance of cauti on, to put it1 0 : 0 7

16 on the record. We do not think he was ever retai ned, that

17 there is any conflict.

18 THE COURT: Does the government or the defense se e any

19 problems?

20 MR. FAZEL: I don't even remember the guy, your H onor.1 0 : 0 7

21 THE COURT: So the answer is?

22 MR. FAZEL: No.

23 THE COURT: Government?

3 THE COURT: All right. Let's call the jury in,

4 please.

5 (Jury present)1 0 : 0 9

6 THE COURT: Before we get underway today, I do wa nt to

7 mention that we're going to get underway tomorrow at 10:15. At

8 9:00 in the morning -- we do this once a year -- almost all the

9 judges in Houston, together with -- I know the ch ief judge from

10 McAllen -- what happens is that we -- our distric t runs from1 0 : 0 9

11 Houston. It takes in -- we have judges in Galves ton, Victoria,

12 Corpus Christi, McAllen, Brownsville, and Laredo. That's the

13 whole district. So, we take about a third of the state in.

14 There's a recognition in Houston of all of the

15 staff people from the clerk's office, from the pr obation1 0 : 1 0

16 department, pretrial services -- what is it? The y get their

17 veteran's awards, shall we say, big plaques. It gets bigger

18 and bigger, the longer you've been here, the plaq ue size.

19 In fact, Ellen is going to be recognized for

20 25 years as employed by the judicial branch, whic h is great,1 0 : 1 0

21 both here and in -- where is it?

22 THE CASE MANAGER: Michigan.

23 THE COURT: Michigan, right, a few years in Michi gan.

24 But anyhow, what I am saying is that begins at

1 you happen to be here that early, you're welcome to come up.1 0 : 1 0

2 It's open to the public. What it is, you can pic ture a bunch

3 of guys in these robes all across the front and, in effect, we

4 have enough participating, a few in the front als o and a few

5 greetings from the chief judge, Judge Hinojosa, v ery1 0 : 1 1

6 accomplished fellow.

7 I think he was Harvard undergraduate, UT Law

8 School; and he holds a number of high positions. In fact, I

9 don't know if you know that or not; Judge Hinojos a was

10 recognized by the highest judicial federal judici al award in1 0 : 1 1

11 the country, given only once -- one per year, cal led the Devitt

12 Award. I think it was last year. And it was pre sented, I

13 believe, at the US Supreme Court.

14 But in any event, if you want to just see what

15 goes on down here, it begins at 9:00 and -- what is it --1 0 : 1 1

16 thereafter we -- the staff gathers somewhere. So we're getting

17 underway at 10:15. You don't have to come in any earlier than

18 10:15. If you happen to be here earlier, it's in

19 Courtroom 11A.

20 It's right next to the one that we selected the1 0 : 1 1

21 jury in. But this is the really ornate courtroom with the

22 ornate rugs and the bench itself is -- extends ov er the whole

23 width of that huge size courtroom, better lightin g, all the

24 judge portraits on the wall.

25 That's the first judge that was appointed to the1 0 : 1 2

1 Southern District of Texas. Of course, the distr ict was in1 0 : 1 2

2 effect, you know, from -- I guess, shortly after, you know,

3 Texas became a state. But then a lot of them lef t during the

4 Civil War, and some of them came back on.

5 But then they split the District of Texas into1 0 : 1 2

6 the Southern, Eastern, Northern, and Western. An d that was the

7 first judge appointed to the Southern District ev en though

8 there was, before that, one judge of the District of Texas.

9 But no known portrait of that man exists. The hi storians have

10 looked for it.1 0 : 1 2

11 Anyhow, if you're here, that's tomorrow morning

12 at 9:00; but we'll be underway at 10:15.

13 Go right ahead, sir.

1 Q. Stop there. Who was the bank's independent acc ountant?1 0 : 2 3

2 A. That was CAS Hewlett.

3 Q. So, this report from Mr. Stanford and Mr. Davis is saying

4 that there's both an internal audit and this outs ide

5 independent accountant who were verifying the boo ks?1 0 : 2 4

6 A. That is correct.

7 Q. Okay. If you can just finish up that paragraph .

8 A. "This examination provides an objective, outsid e review of

9 management's responsibility to report operating r esults and

10 financial condition. Working with the bank's int ernal1 0 : 2 4

11 auditors, they review and make tests, as appropri ate, of the

12 data included in the financial statements."

13 Q. That last sentence is saying that the outside a uditor,

14 Mr. Hewlett, works with the bank's internal audit ors to test

15 the financial statements?1 0 : 2 4

16 A. That is correct.

17 Q. What does that term test -- making tests of the data in the

18 financial statements, what does that mean to you?

19 A. It is to use sampling of the information of the accounting

20 data and test if it's accurate and the integrity of the numbers1 0 : 2 4

21 are correct.

22 Q. And when you are talking about an audit of a ba nk, what

23 type of data would you expect to be tested by the auditors?

24 A. All sorts of different documents, financials, b ut also

25 client deposits and also investments, as well, in vestment1 0 : 2 5

1 portfolio.1 0 : 2 5

2 Q. Let's turn to Page 37 in this annual report.

3 Do you recognize this as the balance sheet the

4 bank was claiming in the 2002 annual report?

5 A. Yes, that's correct.1 0 : 2 5

6 Q. And it lists assets and then liabilities?

7 A. That's correct.

8 Q. Now, let's first talk about liabilities. It sa ys total

9 liabilities of 1.6 billion in 2002, and it breaks it down.

10 What are the vast, vast majority of those liabili ties of the1 0 : 2 6

11 bank?

12 A. That's the customer deposits.

13 Q. The money owed to the CD depositors?

14 A. That's the money owed.

15 Q. And when you were down in Antigua and that inte rnal audit1 0 : 2 6

16 was being conducted, was there backup documentati on that

17 allowed the internal auditors to verify that that was, in fact,

18 the amount owed to the CD depositors?

19 A. That is correct. There was clients' informatio n.

20 Q. So, that part, you did see testing of the liabi lity side of1 0 : 2 6

21 the bank's balance sheet?

22 A. That's correct.

23 Q. Now, let's talk about the assets. And just in basic terms,

24 what are assets?

25 A. The assets are the investments that the bank -- the bank is1 0 : 2 6

Page 20: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2312

1 investing those clients' deposits.1 0 : 2 6

2 Q. And why would someone reading this care what th e bank's

3 assets were?

4 A. Because that way the person who would make the decision to

5 deposit money into the bank will see that the mon ey is being1 0 : 2 6

6 invested correctly and there is no high risk on t heir money.

7 Q. Are there banking requirements about how much t he assets

8 need to be in relation to the liabilities?

9 A. Yes, there is.

10 Q. And just very generally, what does the relation ship have to1 0 : 2 7

11 be between assets and liabilities of a bank?

12 A. Well, the assets have to be higher than the lia bilities to

13 have that cushion to cover any withdrawals of cli ents'

14 deposits.

15 Q. And so, in 2002 the total assets were reported to be1 0 : 2 7

16 1.7 billion. And what's the vast majority -- the y break it

17 down. Part of it is -- a little bit, just 5 mill ion, is fixed

18 assets. And you talked about that before. What were the fixed

19 assets of the bank, what would those be?

20 A. That would be the building, furniture and fixtu res,1 0 : 2 7

21 machinery, equipment.

22 Q. That's just $5 million reported in 2002?

23 A. That is correct.

24 Q. So, what was the vast majority of the total ass ets

25 reported?1 0 : 2 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 21: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2313

1 A. The vast majority was the investment portfolio.1 0 : 2 8

2 Q. Over 1.57 billion reported?

3 A. That's correct.

4 Q. And when you were down for 10 days in Antigua d uring the

5 internal audit in early 2003, did you see any bac kup1 0 : 2 8

6 documentation being provided by the bank to suppo rt the

7 investment portfolio?

8 A. No, I didn't.

9 Q. What type of backup documentation -- we talked about that

10 testing, an auditor should test the numbers. Wha t type of1 0 : 2 8

11 backup documentation would enable someone to test the

12 investment portfolio being reported?

13 A. That would be broker/dealer statements, bank st atements

14 showing the different investments, and the return of those

15 investments as well.1 0 : 2 8

16 Q. And you didn't see those the 10 days you were d own at the

17 bank in 2003?

18 A. No, I didn't.

19 MR. COSTA: If we can go in the same document to

20 Page 50, and if we can get the part above the gra phs.1 0 : 2 9

21 BY MR. COSTA:

22 Q. And is that a breakdown of supposedly where the investments

23 are?

24 A. That is correct, yes.

25 Q. And so, it's those equities and treasury bonds, notes,1 0 : 2 9

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 22: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2314

1 corporate bonds. It says they're generally liste d on major1 0 : 2 9

2 exchanges. It's statements showing those investm ents that you

3 would expect to see and be tested during an audit ?

4 A. That is correct, yes.

5 Q. Did you ever go down to Antigua for another int ernal audit?1 0 : 2 9

6 A. No, I didn't.

7 Q. But you stayed working at Stanford Financial th rough 2009?

8 A. Yes, I did.

9 Q. Did you learn whether the internal auditors wer e ever given

10 access to those brokerage statements that would a llow for1 0 : 3 0

11 proper testing of the investment numbers?

12 MR. SCARDINO: Object to the form of the question .

13 THE COURT: Why?

14 MR. SCARDINO: He's stating whether for the "prop er

15 testing," which is testifying, in effect, whether it was proper1 0 : 3 0

16 or not.

17 THE COURT: All right. Rephrase it.

18 MR. COSTA: I'll rephrase it.

19 BY MR. COSTA:

20 Q. Did you learn whether the backup documentation, those1 0 : 3 0

21 broker statements for the investment portfolio, w ere ever given

22 to the internal auditors?

23 A. No. They were never given to the internal audi tors.

24 Q. What about -- you said you worked in the accoun ting

25 department for Stanford Financial Group, which pr ovided1 0 : 3 0

1 accounting services to the bank, among other comp anies. Did1 0 : 3 0

2 the accounting department ever receive the broker age statements

3 showing or verifying those numbers reported to be in the

4 investment portfolio?

5 A. No, they never received it.1 0 : 3 0

6 Q. Did you think it was unusual that the internal auditors

7 never had access to those brokerage statements?

8 A. Yes, it was unusual.

9 Q. Why?

10 A. Because for an internal auditor to be able to g ive an1 0 : 3 1

11 objective, independent review and evaluation of t he financials,

12 he needs to have that information.

13 Q. Were you ever told why the brokerage statements weren't

14 given to the accounting department or weren't dis closed to the

15 internal auditors or others within the company?1 0 : 3 1

16 A. The information that was given -- or the explan ation why

17 that information was not disclosed is because of the unique

18 investment model that the company had and it was very secretive

19 and so unique that it was not to be revealed, it was very

20 confidential.1 0 : 3 2

21 Q. These investments in stocks and treasury notes was -- you

22 were told was very confidential?

23 A. Yes.

24 Q. You worked -- you said before, you worked at Ae romexico

Page 24: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2316

1 A. That is correct.1 0 : 3 2

2 Q. And since, you've worked at another company. I s that

3 correct? As an accountant?

4 A. Yes.

5 Q. Is there something -- I take it most companies don't want1 0 : 3 2

6 their business information disclosed outside of t he company.

7 Is that your experience?

8 A. Yes, that's correct.

9 Q. Is there something businesses can do, a legal a greement, to

10 prevent that disclosure outside the company?1 0 : 3 2

11 A. Yes. There's -- employees sign confidentiality agreements.

12 Q. But at Stanford it wasn't enough to have a conf identiality

13 agreement with those auditors or others?

14 A. That was not enough.

15 Q. Was this secrecy surrounding the investment por tfolio1 0 : 3 3

16 consistent with what you saw generally working fo r Stanford

17 Financial?

18 A. In general, yes.

19 Q. Was there a phrase for -- that described access to

20 information at Stanford Financial?1 0 : 3 3

21 A. Everything was to be a need-to-know basis.

22 Q. Was there an experience you had early on in you r time at

23 Stanford Financial that highlighted the secrecy t hat you saw at

24 the company?

25 A. Yes. In one occasion we left printed financial s of one of1 0 : 3 3

Page 25: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2317

1 the entities on the printer, and it was informed -- or called1 0 : 3 3

2 to my attention that that should not ever be left -- that

3 information should never be left in the printer o r outside of

4 the accounting department.

5 Q. Who told you that?1 0 : 3 4

6 A. That was -- Mark Kuhrt mentioned that to me.

7 Q. You said after 2003 you never went down to the bank during

8 an internal audit. But did you continue to work on the annual

9 report?

10 A. Yes. Yes, I did.1 0 : 3 4

11 Q. Each year you had some involvement in the annua l report?

12 A. Each year, yes.

13 Q. What was your level of involvement in the annua l report?

14 A. It was a level of reviewing the different draft s of the

15 annual report as they were drafted. After they h ad come1 0 : 3 4

16 from -- the information came from Antigua and the y had reviewed

17 the information, then the accounting department i n Houston

18 would review the multiple draft that will come fr om the

19 marketing, advertising company that will be draft ing the annual

20 report and make sure that information from the pr ior year was1 0 : 3 5

21 flowing into the new year annual report, making s ure that

22 numbers added up, spelling, things like that was done.

23 Q. I want to go to Exhibit 120, which is the 2007 annual

24 report. Is this the last annual report that was ever

25 distributed?1 0 : 3 5

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 26: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2318

1 A. Published? Yes.1 0 : 3 5

2 Q. What happened to the 2008 annual report?

3 A. It was not yet finalized when the receivership took over

4 the company in February.

5 MR. COSTA: If we can go to Page 6, highlight the1 0 : 3 5

6 second paragraph. The one below.

7 MR. SCARDINO: I'm sorry, Mr. Costa. What is it?

8 MR. COSTA: 120, 2007 report.

9 MR. SCARDINO: What page?

10 MR. COSTA: Page 6.1 0 : 3 6

11 BY MR. COSTA:

12 Q. Could you read that second paragraph, Mr. Amadi o?

13 A. "We believe value for clients means value for c apital.

14 Theirs and ours. That's why we zealously manage for a strong

15 balance sheet, a strong cash flow, and a strong r eturn on1 0 : 3 6

16 equity. Further, our sole shareholder reinvests every dollar

17 earned back into retained earnings; an act of for esight that

18 has continuously strengthened our capital base fo r future

19 growth. And that's why we are able to pay consis tent returns

20 to our clients, year after year, through market u ps and market1 0 : 3 6

21 downs."

22 Q. I want to focus on the middle sentence, "Furthe r, our sole

23 shareholder." Who was the sole shareholder of St anford

24 International?

25 A. Mr. Stanford.1 0 : 3 7

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 27: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2319

1 Q. It says he reinvests every dollar earned back i nto retained1 0 : 3 7

2 earnings. What does that mean, "retained earning s"?

3 A. Retained earnings is the accumulations of all t he profits

4 and earnings that the company makes.

5 Q. So, according to this annual report given to th e clients,1 0 : 3 7

6 was Mr. Stanford taking out his profits for his o wn use or was

7 he putting them back into the bank?

8 A. He was putting it back into the bank. There wa s no

9 distribution to the shareholder.

10 Q. And it says that's the "act that has continuous ly1 0 : 3 7

11 strengthened our capital base for future growth?"

12 A. That's correct.

13 Q. By the time this was being published, did you h ave

14 information that showed that was not true?

15 A. Yes. Yes, I did.1 0 : 3 7

16 Q. What information did you have showing that Mr. Stanford was

17 not putting all the money back into the bank?

18 A. The fact that we had a shareholder funding repo rt that was

19 reflecting all of the funding that was sent to al l of the

20 Stanford affiliated companies and that's -- those were funds1 0 : 3 8

21 that later on I learned that were coming from the bank and they

22 were part of the clients' deposits and were being distributed

23 as -- on behalf of the shareholder, fundings to a ll of the

24 needs of the -- the cash needs of all the affilia ted companies.

25 Q. And we're going to look at some of those accoun ting records1 0 : 3 8

Page 28: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

1 in a few minutes. But just generally speaking, w hat type of1 0 : 3 8

2 money are we talking about when this 2007 annual report was

3 published?

4 A. $1.6 billion.

5 Q. And so, this is saying Mr. Stanford is not even taking1 0 : 3 9

6 profits out of the bank. And you said you knew t hat wasn't

7 true. From what you knew, was he taking even mor e than profits

8 out of the bank?

9 A. Yes.

10 Q. And what do you mean by that?1 0 : 3 9

11 A. What I mean by that is that, first of all, ther e was not

12 enough profits in the bank to make up the $1.6 bi llion that was

13 already accumulated all the way through 2007 as s hareholder

14 funding or money that was coming on behalf of the shareholder

15 to the different affiliated companies. So, what I mean by that1 0 : 3 9

16 is that the only other conclusion was that money was coming

17 from the clients' deposits to cover that amount.

18 Q. That one point -- did you say 1.6?

19 A. 1.6 billion.

20 Q. At that time the 1.6 billion that had gone to1 0 : 3 9

21 Mr. Stanford's other companies?

22 A. That is correct.

23 MR. COSTA: Let's go to Page 17. If we can highl ight

24 Section 2.9.

25 BY MR. COSTA: 1 0 : 4 0

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 29: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2321

1 Q. Are you familiar with this as part of the 2007 annual1 0 : 4 0

2 report, Mr. Amadio?

3 A. Yes. Yes, I am.

4 Q. If you can read that section entitled "Loans an d advances

5 to clients"?1 0 : 4 0

6 A. "Stanford International Bank does not expose it s clients to

7 the risks associated with commercial loans. The bank's only

8 form of lending is done on a cash-secured basis s olely to

9 existing clients. Loans and advances to clients are permitted

10 up to 80 percent of deposits maintained by the cl ient at the1 0 : 4 0

11 bank. The deposits serve as guarantee to the loa n and,

12 therefore, no additional provision is needed to s upport a

13 potential loan loss."

14 Q. So, it says the bank does not expose its client s to risks

15 associated with commercial loans. Did you see an y loans at the1 0 : 4 0

16 bank that did involve risk?

17 A. Yes, I did.

18 Q. Did you believe this was a true statement in th e annual

19 report?

20 A. No, it wasn't.1 0 : 4 1

21 Q. What -- explain why you thought it was not a tr ue

22 statement.

23 A. Because -- because of the shareholder funding r eport and

24 knowing how the different affiliated companies we re cash

25 funded, there was an existing loan and that exist ing loan was1 0 : 4 1

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 30: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2322

1 what was referred to as the shareholder receivabl es or note1 0 : 4 1

2 receivable in the bank.

3 Q. So, who was the bank loaning money to?

4 A. To Robert Allen Stanford.

5 Q. And this note in the annual report talks about risks1 0 : 4 1

6 associated with commercial loans. What's the bas ic risk with

7 loaning out money?

8 A. That it will not get repaid.

9 Q. Did you think this loan at this time -- I think you said

10 for about 1.6 billion to Mr. Stanford -- was ther e a risk it1 0 : 4 2

11 wouldn't get repaid?

12 A. Yes, that was a concern.

13 Q. And we're going to talk more about this later, but for the

14 number of years you were familiar with this -- al l this money

15 being loaned to Mr. Stanford, were there signific ant repayments1 0 : 4 2

16 being made on a regular basis?

17 A. No, there wasn't. There wasn't.

18 Q. Were the loans growing over time?

19 A. Yes, they were.

20 Q. At what type of rate?1 0 : 4 2

21 A. At least three to four hundred million dollars every year.

22 Q. And it does talk here -- it says there's one fo rm of loan.

23 Is that describing the loans Mr. Stanford was tak ing out?

24 A. No, it's not.

25 Q. What's the one -- the only form of lending it t alks about?1 0 : 4 2

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 31: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2323

1 Just explain what those loans were that were disc losed.1 0 : 4 2

2 A. That's the type of loans that only clients that have cash

3 deposits into the bank can withdraw to 80 percent of their

4 deposits. But it's what is cash -- it's cash gua ranteed. In

5 other words, it's guaranteed. If there is no rep ayment of that1 0 : 4 3

6 loan, the bank can use the deposits to cover for that -- that

7 loan.

8 Q. So, was there a risk associated with those loan s to the

9 clients who had CD money in the bank?

10 A. No risk.1 0 : 4 3

11 Q. Because it was cash secured?

12 A. That is correct.

13 Q. What is it -- it says "commercial loan." What does

14 "commercial loan" mean?

15 A. Commercial loans are, you know, mortgages, car loans.1 0 : 4 3

16 Q. Would that include a loan just for someone to s tart a

17 business or invest in a business?

18 A. That's correct, yes.

19 Q. And what was Mr. Stanford using all this -- the 1.6 billion

20 for?1 0 : 4 3

21 A. The $1.6 billion was used to start businesses.

22 MR. SCARDINO: I'm sorry. I didn't hear what he said.

23 MR. COSTA: He said to start businesses.

24 MR. SCARDINO: Used to start businesses?

25 MR. COSTA: Uh-huh.1 0 : 4 4

1 MR. SCARDINO: Okay.1 0 : 4 4

2 BY MR. COSTA:

3 Q. When did you first learn that Mr. Stanford was taking all

4 this money from the CD depositors?

5 A. Approximately in 2005, in preparation of -- in preparing1 0 : 4 4

6 this shareholder funding report, I was aware that there was a

7 notes receivable in the bank or -- called an inve stment

8 account.

9 Q. What is a notes receivable, in just general non -accounting

10 terms?1 0 : 4 4

11 A. It's a debt. It's a debt owed to the bank.

12 Q. And so, the bank had this entry for a note rece ivable. And

13 who owed it to the bank?

14 A. Mr. Stanford.

15 Q. And you mentioned this report. Were you tasked with1 0 : 4 4

16 compiling this report?

17 A. That's correct, because of the multiple differe nt

18 affiliated companies and -- and because of this f unding wasn't

19 on a regular basis of. You know, sometimes on a monthly basis,

20 sometimes twice a month. There was a way -- acco unting wise,1 0 : 4 5

21 we needed to keep track of the capitalization. B ecause since

22 these funds were coming on behalf of the sharehol der to the

23 different affiliated companies, it was the only w ay to keep

24 track that all of the different accountants of al l the other

25 entities, affiliated entities, that were recordin g correctly1 0 : 4 5

1 these funds that were coming in into their entiti es as1 0 : 4 5

2 shareholder funding or capital funding. [sic]

3 Q. Okay. You said a lot there. I'm going to brea k up -- and

4 did you actually do a flow chart that will help s how this more

5 clearly --1 0 : 4 5

6 A. Yes, sir.

7 Q. -- how this worked?

8 But first, before we get to that, who directed

9 you to start compiling this report that would tra ck the amount

10 of money going from the bank to Mr. Stanford and then to his1 0 : 4 6

11 other companies?

12 A. This was Gil Lopez and Mark Kuhrt.

13 Q. Were they your supervisors in the accounting de partment?

14 A. Supervisors. And direction also by Mr. Davis.

15 Q. And did Mr. Davis say what he was going to do w ith this1 0 : 4 6

16 report?

17 A. Yes. He would share this information with the shareholder.

18 Q. And the shareholder was?

19 A. Robert Allen Stanford.

20 Q. And you keep calling him "the shareholder." Wa s that1 0 : 4 6

21 generally what he was referred to as in the accou nting

22 department?

23 A. Yes, sir.

2 MR. COSTA: Can we go to 320, Page 2?

4 all being offered not for the truth of the matter ?

3 A. They did.

4 Q. So, let's talk about Caribbean Sun. Why would

6 shareholder?

7 A. The company was not making money, not making an y profit;

8 and they were losing a lot of money every month. And so, to be

9 able to pay for the operating expenses, payroll, rent, fuel,

10 they needed cash injection to be able to survive.1 0 : 5 0

11 Q. So, someone at Caribbean Sun would notify treas ury that

12 they needed money?

13 A. That is correct.

14 Q. Okay. And they were asking for money from the shareholder?

15 A. That is correct.1 0 : 5 0

16 Q. Mr. Stanford?

17 A. Yes, sir.

18 Q. And so, when that request went to treasury -- t he next box

19 says, "From company down south," which the judge asked about.

20 That's Stanford International Bank?1 0 : 5 0

21 A. Yes.

22 Q. And you said Mr. Davis wanted it to be called " company down

16 middle role?

18 Q. Other than the change in those company names, d id the

19 process basically work the same?

20 A. Basically the same, yes.1 0 : 5 1

21 Q. So, the money would go from the bank to Stanfor d Financial

22 Group and later SFG GM. Where would that middle company then

23 send the money?

25 the cash need of each affiliated company as they requested,1 0 : 5 2

1 they will be funding those affiliated companies.1 0 : 5 2

2 Q. Which was Caribbean Sun, for example?

3 A. Caribbean Sun will be one of the examples.

4 Q. So, where would Caribbean Sun fit on your flow chart?

5 A. It would be on the bottom portion, where it say s Stanford1 0 : 5 2

6 Group of companies affiliated with cash needs, do wn on the

7 bottom.

8 Q. So, the transfer that Caribbean Sun or Star was receiving

9 would be coming directly from Stanford Financial Group, or the

10 middle company, correct?1 0 : 5 2

11 A. That is correct.

12 Q. It wouldn't even get transferred directly from the bank?

13 A. It would not get transferred directly from the bank.

14 THE COURT: Why not?

15 THE WITNESS: Because since there were multiple - -1 0 : 5 3

16 there were multiple requests for funding, there w as -- the

17 Stanford Financial Group Global Management Compan y was a

18 company that was in charge to keep track of all o f the funding

5 about the financial statements the bank produced, that it had1 0 : 5 3

6 this money.

7 THE COURT: So, what's your theory on the alleged

8 scheme of this? What is it called?

9 MR. COSTA: Well, Mr. Stanford was taking this mo ney

10 improperly, stealing it from the depositors for i mproper1 0 : 5 3

11 purposes and undisclosed purposes.

20 money to repay the investors and was relying on p ast1 0 : 5 4

13 that was actually owed back to depositors?

14 A. That is correct.

8 A. No.

9 Q. What's it showing?

Page 62: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2354

2 how did you initially -- how did the accounting d epartment

3 initially treat that money on Stanford Financial Group's books?

4 A. Every company of Stanford Financial Group would record that

19 would you change the accounting treatment of that money that

22 whatever was in -- as a notes payable, a debt to the

24 capitalized to that company.

2 A. That's correct.

3 Q. That describes the bottom portion of this relat ionship, how

4 it was treated, correct?

5 A. Yes.1 1 : 2 2

6 Q. What about how it was treated on the top half? When the

7 money went from the bank to Mr. Stanford, how was that treated,

8 from an accounting perspective?

9 A. It was a passthrough. It was still put into no tes payable

10 where -- the entity that was in charge of distrib uting the1 1 : 2 2

11 funds to all the affiliated companies would leave it

12 temporarily into a notes payable. And then, as i t was funded

13 to the other entity, it was taken out of that not es payable and

14 then put into notes payable into the different en tity that now

15 owed to the shareholder.1 1 : 2 3

16 Q. But in terms of when this would happen, who's s till -- was

17 the bank depositors, were they still owed money b y Mr. Stanford

18 for this transaction?

19 A. Say that again.

20 Q. Was the money -- who ultimately was the money o wed back to?1 1 : 2 3

3 case?

4 A. That's correct.

5 Q. -- that it would no longer owe a debt to Mr. St anford, it1 1 : 2 5

6 would just be viewed as Mr. Stanford's --

Page 89: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2381

1 A. Yes.1 2 : 1 7

2 Q. So, according to this, did Mr. Stanford pay any of that

3 back that he had promised to repay within a year?

4 A. No, he didn't.

5 Q. It was just rolled into that next year's note t hat then1 2 : 1 7

6 became 330 million?

7 A. That's correct.

8 Q. And then does it list money going to other comp anies that

9 shows why it went up from the previous year's not e to now

10 330 million?1 2 : 1 7

11 A. Yeah, that's correct.

12 Q. Now, as you started tracking the amount of mone y going from

13 the bank and the CD depositors to Mr. Stanford's other

14 companies, were these notes -- did you see these notes for

15 2006, 2007?1 2 : 1 7

16 A. No. There was no -- no notes for those years.

17 Q. Did that change the fact that Mr. Stanford owed that money

18 back to the bank?

19 A. No, it didn't change the fact. No, it didn't.

20 MR. COSTA: We can go back to 1603.1 2 : 1 8

21 BY MR. COSTA:

22 Q. You said you were concerned about how large thi s number had

23 gotten. Were you also concerned about whether th is was

24 disclosed?

25 A. Yes.1 2 : 1 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 90: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2382

1 Q. Was it disclosed, from what you saw?1 2 : 1 8

2 A. No, it wasn't.

3 Q. Why did that concern you, that it wasn't disclo sed?

4 A. Because it was misleading information on the an nual report.

5 Q. And who was getting those annual reports?1 2 : 1 8

6 A. The clients.

7 Q. And in addition to the fact that these loans -- the

8 $2 billion wasn't mentioned, was the annual repor t saying

9 things, which we looked at earlier, about what Mr . Stanford was

10 doing with the bank's money?1 2 : 1 9

11 A. Yeah, that's correct.

12 Q. What did it say he was doing with the profits t he bank

13 supposedly had?

14 A. Reinvesting it, keeping it in a bank.

15 Q. What did it say about whether the bank had any risk of1 2 : 1 9

16 commercial loans?

17 A. That there was no commercial loans.

18 Q. Did your knowledge about these billions of doll ars being

19 taken out of the bank, did that also cause you to doubt the

20 financial numbers, the assets that the bank was r eporting?1 2 : 1 9

21 A. Yes, it did.

22 MR. COSTA: We can go to Government 119.

23 It's already been referenced, your Honor.

3 Q. Do you recognize this annual report?

4 A. Yes, I do.

6 can blow that up, will it show us the year?

7 BY MR. COSTA:

8 Q. 2006?

9 A. Yes.

10 MR. COSTA: We can go to Page 38, please. If we can1 2 : 2 0

11 go to the second box "Financial assets at fair va lue" and blow

12 that up.

13 BY MR. COSTA:

14 Q. In year end 2006, what was the total financial assets the

15 bank claimed?1 2 : 2 0

16 A. Four billion nine hundred and thirty-five six f ifty-one.

17 Q. So, basically about $5 billion?

21 Q. Year end 2006, how much did you know had come o ut of the

22 bank to Mr. Stanford's other companies?

23 A. 1.3 billion.

24 Q. What percentage is that of 5 billion, just roug hly?

25 A. It's about 25, 26 percent.1 2 : 2 1

Page 92: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2384

1 Q. So, why did your knowledge in 2006 about 1.3 bi llion cause1 2 : 2 1

2 you to doubt those numbers in Government 119 sayi ng the bank

3 had $5 billion in financial assets?

4 A. Because that money was not invested. That mone y has -- was

5 funded -- was used to fund the affiliated compani es; and so, it1 2 : 2 1

6 was not part of the portfolio anymore.

7 Q. And that portfolio would be those broker statem ents you

8 were talking about before?

9 A. That is correct.

10 Q. That the accounting department was never shown?1 2 : 2 1

11 A. That's correct.

12 Q. And that the internal auditors were never shown ?

13 A. That's right.

14 Q. And so, you said this -- the 1.6 billion was no t -- I'm

15 sorry -- 1.3 billion at the time was not being in vested. What1 2 : 2 2

16 was that money going for at the airlines, at the cricket

17 company, at Stanford Development Company?

18 A. That money was to fund the operating expenses o f the

19 day-to-day operations, for the most part.

20 Q. Did you ever see any document saying the bank w as getting1 2 : 2 2

21 an ownership interest in those companies?

22 A. No, I didn't.

23 MR. COSTA: We can go to Page 31 of the same annu al

24 report. If we can go one page prior, first.

25 MR. SCARDINO: I'm sorry, Mr. Costa. Which exhib it1 2 : 2 2

2 MR. COSTA: Government 119, the '06 report.

3 MR. SCARDINO: Thank you.

4 MR. COSTA: If you can just highlight the last -- the

5 header there.1 2 : 2 3

6 BY MR. COSTA:

7 Q. Do you recall this discussion in the annual rep ort about

8 liquidity risk?

9 A. I have read it before.

10 MR. COSTA: And, then, if we go to the next page. 1 2 : 2 3

11 It's a little faint, but let's see if blowing it

12 up helps.

13 BY MR. COSTA:

14 Q. Does this then chart, break down the investment portfolio

15 the bank supposedly had into when that money coul d be1 2 : 2 3

16 liquidated?

17 A. That is correct.

18 Q. And so, financial assets at fair value, it says $4 billion?

19 A. Yes.

20 Q. The -- well, let's back -- look at the total. On the1 2 : 2 3

21 right-hand side, the total is the five -- almost $5 billion we

22 just saw?

23 A. Yes.

24 Q. And then it breaks that 5 billion down --

1 BY MR. COSTA: 1 2 : 2 4

2 Q. Does it break it down into how liquid that $5 b illion is?

3 A. Yes, it does.

4 Q. And how much of that is the annual report sayin g can be

5 liquidated in just a month?1 2 : 2 4

6 A. $4 billion.

7 Q. 80 percent?

8 A. About 80 percent, yes.

9 Q. Would it make any sense that the money that had gone to

10 Mr. Stanford's companies was included in that fig ure?1 2 : 2 4

11 A. No, it doesn't make any sense.

12 Q. Is that money liquid, that had gone to pay for salaries and

13 fuel for planes and food for the Sticky Wicket; w as that

14 liquid?

15 A. That was not liquid.1 2 : 2 4

16 Q. Was the money even still there?

17 A. The money was not there anymore.

18 Q. It had been spent --

19 A. Yes.

20 Q. -- by those companies?1 2 : 2 4

21 A. Yes.

22 MR. COSTA: Let's go to Page 34 of this same

23 Government 119. If we can blow up the chart at t he top.

24 BY MR. COSTA:

25 Q. What is this showing in the annual report?1 2 : 2 5

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 95: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2387

1 A. The net investment income.1 2 : 2 5

2 Q. How much the investments made during that year of 2006?

3 A. That is correct.

4 Q. And it says it made a total of 480 million?

5 A. Yes.1 2 : 2 5

6 Q. Did what you know about the billions going from the bank to

7 Mr. Stanford's company cause you to doubt the acc uracy of that

8 investment income number?

9 A. Yes.

10 THE COURT: Where did those numbers come from? A ny1 2 : 2 5

11 idea?

12 THE WITNESS: These numbers came from the calcula tion

13 of the financials of the revenue calculation from the financial

14 statement.

15 BY MR. COSTA: 1 2 : 2 5

16 Q. Did you ever see the broker statements to back that up?

17 A. No, I didn't.

18 Q. Do you know of anyone in the accounting departm ent in

19 Houston who saw those broker statements to back t hat up?

20 A. No.1 2 : 2 6

21 THE COURT: Was it part of your job -- did you ge t to

22 that figure or somebody else did?

23 THE WITNESS: Somebody else did.

24 BY MR. COSTA:

25 Q. But the bank is reporting 479 million in invest ment income?1 2 : 2 6

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 96: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2388

1 A. Yes, it is.1 2 : 2 6

2 Q. Why did what you know about the billions coming out of the

3 bank to fund Mr. Stanford's companies on a weekly basis, why

4 did that cause you to doubt that number?

5 A. Because if the annual report was taking in cons ideration1 2 : 2 6

6 the full entire portfolio of 4 billion and all of that money

7 was not invested because it's already been used t o fund

8 affiliated companies, then there is a miscalculat ion on the

9 revenue and it's a misstatement of the calculatio n of the

10 income.1 2 : 2 7

11 THE COURT: If that were accurate, what would it show

12 a rate of return for that year, if it were correc t?

13 THE WITNESS: I would not have that number. It w ould

14 be less -- it would be less than that amount.

15 BY MR. COSTA: 1 2 : 2 7

16 Q. What was the bank typically claiming, ballpark, as its rate

17 of return each year on its investments?

18 A. I know it was always over 10, 11 percent.

19 Q. So, about 12 typically?

20 A. Twelve typically, yeah.1 2 : 2 7

21 Q. And that 12 percent it was claiming would be ba sed on all

22 the assets it claimed it had?

23 A. That's correct.

24 Q. But you were saying all those assets you knew w eren't

25 invested with brokers and money managers, right?1 2 : 2 7

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 97: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2389

1 A. That's right.1 2 : 2 7

2 THE COURT: Your position was the money wasn't th ere,

3 correct?

4 THE WITNESS: That's right.

5 BY MR. COSTA: 1 2 : 2 7

6 Q. The money had been spent on payroll for restaur ants and

7 cricket and jets, right?

8 A. That's correct.

9 Q. So, explain to the jury why that 12 percent ret urn didn't

10 make sense if you knew a lot of this money had be en spent?1 2 : 2 8

11 A. If all of the portfolio was not there to invest and to

12 produce that rate of return of 12 percent that wi ll generate

13 the $480 million, then you have a much smaller po rtion of the

14 pie to invest. And to be able to generate the $4 80 million

15 will have to be a much higher rate of return, muc h higher than1 2 : 2 8

16 12 percent.

17 Q. Did you need some fancy calculators and all you r accounting

18 background to figure out these numbers didn't mak e sense, based

19 on what you knew about the money going from the b ank to these

20 other companies?1 2 : 2 8

21 A. No.

22 Q. How did you figure out that the numbers didn't make sense?

23 A. It's just a quick calculation of knowing that i f not all of

24 it is invested, then you don't have all the money to -- to be

25 able to create that income.1 2 : 2 9

1 Q. Did the bank -- or the accounting department al so generate1 2 : 2 9

2 monthly returns on investment numbers for the ban k?

3 A. Yes.

4 Q. Through 2007, were those positive every single month?

5 A. Yes, they were.1 2 : 2 9

6 Q. Did that cause you concern?

7 A. Yes, it did.

8 Q. Why?

9 A. Because of the economic times that we were faci ng, the bank

10 was always returning a profitable return despite the fact that1 2 : 2 9

11 we were living in very difficult economic times.

12 THE COURT: Well, the economic times, are you tal king

13 about the economic times in the United States, wo rldwide, or

14 what?

15 THE WITNESS: Worldwide.1 2 : 2 9

16 THE COURT: All right.

17 BY MR. COSTA:

18 Q. Were there particular months when you knew the markets were

19 doing poorly and yet the bank was still showing a positive

20 return on its investment?1 2 : 2 9

21 A. Yes. During 2008, yes.

22 Q. At some point later in 2008, did the bank final ly report a

23 loss for a particular month?

24 A. Yes, that was towards the end of the year.

25 Q. But even through the first parts of the year, p ositive1 2 : 3 0

2391

1 returns were shown on a monthly basis?1 2 : 3 0

2 A. That is correct.

3 Q. Did you ever mention all these concerns you had about the

4 numbers and why you doubted them based on what yo u knew? Did

5 you ever mention it to anyone else in the account ing1 2 : 3 0

6 department?

7 A. Yes, I mentioned it to my immediate supervisor.

8 Q. Who was that?

9 A. Mark Kuhrt.

10 Q. What did you say?1 2 : 3 0

11 A. I mentioned to him about the concern of the gro wth and the

12 shareholder funding report and as well as talking about the

13 returns on the investment, that we really hope th at the company

14 is really making the return on the investment tha t they're

15 saying that they're making.1 2 : 3 0

16 Q. And what did Mr. Kuhrt say in response?

17 A. He said he hoped so, too, he said.

18 Q. What was his demeanor or his -- or what tone of voice was

19 he using when he said, "I hope so, too"?

20 A. He sounded concerned, too.1 2 : 3 1

21 MR. SCARDINO: Objection, calls for speculation.

22 THE COURT: Overruled.

23 MR. COSTA: What was the tone --

24 THE COURT: Hold it. Based upon your observation of

25 knowing the person.1 2 : 3 1

2 Q. What was the tone in his voice when Mr. Kuhrt s aid, "I hope

3 so, too"?

4 A. He said it in a very low tone and concerned ton e.

5 Q. Now, all these numbers that you were -- came to doubt based1 2 : 3 1

6 on what you knew about the billions going from th e bank to

7 Mr. Stanford's companies, who was -- remind us wh o was the

8 outside auditor who was supposedly testing and ve rifying these

9 numbers each year.

10 A. It was CAS Hewlett.1 2 : 3 1

11 Q. And if we go in the same 2006 annual report to Page 46, do

12 you recognize Mr. Hewlett's signature right there ?

13 A. Yes, I do.

14 Q. And he signed off every year in these annual re ports with

15 this letter saying the numbers were good?1 2 : 3 2

16 A. Yes, he did.

17 Q. Were you involved in -- and I take it Mr. Hewle tt -- anyone

18 doing that type of service gets paid, correct?

19 A. That is correct.

20 Q. Were you involved, as a part of your accounting duties, in1 2 : 3 2

2 A. Of Mr. Stanford's.

3 Q. And so, did you have to allocate how much of hi s fee was

4 going to the different companies?

5 A. Yes.1 2 : 3 2

6 Q. And do you remember, most of your time with Sta nford, how

7 much did you know the bank was paying him each mo nth?

8 A. The bank was paying a portion of -- I think it was, like,

9 3,000 something dollars --

10 Q. I'm sorry. Let me withdraw that question. I a sked a poor1 2 : 3 3

3 THE COURT: What is the exchange rate? Was it ba ck

4 then -- what is it right now? Anybody have an id ea, all the

5 world travelers there?1 2 : 5 5

6 MR. COSTA: I think about a buck 50 as told by my

7 colleagues.

8 THE COURT: I think it -- you always say about on e and

9 a half as an -- during these times. So, one and a half a good

10 estimate? Anybody want to disagree? Just for ba llpark?1 2 : 5 5

11 MR. COSTA: Someone in the audience, I think, has an

12 idea.

13 Your Honor, we will have a witness later on who

14 has done the exchange rates and will tell us abou t that.

15 THE COURT: We're looking at about one and a half1 2 : 5 5

16 times. So, if you look at something as 20,000, w hat would it

17 be generally in US dollars?

18 BY MR. COSTA:

19 Q. Would it be 30?

20 A. About 30,000, yes.1 2 : 5 5

2 Q. Do you remember what your reaction was?

4 MR. SCARDINO: Object to his reaction.

5 THE COURT: Sustained.1 2 : 5 8

6 BY MR. COSTA:

7 Q. Do you know of any legitimate business reason t hat you are

8 aware of why Mr. Hewlett would be paid millions o ut of a Swiss

9 bank account that the accounting department wasn' t made aware

10 of?1 2 : 5 8

11 THE COURT: Hold it a second.

12 Yes, sir?

13 MR. SCARDINO: Not been established that that's w ithin

14 the realm of his knowledge.

15 THE COURT: Say again.1 2 : 5 8

16 MR. SCARDINO: It's not been established that the

17 answer to that question would be within his realm of knowledge

18 or expertise of where -- why -- what the money co uld be used

19 for --

20 THE COURT: Well, there was a first phrase in it, if I1 2 : 5 8

6 question?

7 A. Yes.

8 Q. Okay.

9 A. No, I don't know any legitimate reason why this -- these

10 additional payments were made.1 2 : 5 9

11 THE COURT: Okay.

12 BY MR. COSTA:

13 Q. And weren't tracked on any of the accounting re cords?

14 A. They were not tracked.

15 Q. Does that possibly explain why Mr. Hewlett was signing off1 2 : 5 9

16 on those numbers that, from what you knew, could not be

17 accurate financial reports?

18 MR. SCARDINO: Object to the speculation.

19 THE COURT: Sustained.

20 MR. COSTA: I think we're at a good breaking poin t for1 2 : 5 9

2 (Jury present)

3 THE COURT: Thank you. Be seated.

4 We have a call in to a technician to work on that

5 screen. In the meantime, we appreciate your inpu t. It may not0 2 : 2 1

6 be optimal, but we'll leave that screen on as bes t we can. It

7 may help a little bit until we get the big one lo oked at; but

9 The government screen has the same as everybody

10 else, right? 0 2 : 2 1

11 Well, we'll soon find out.

12 Okay. Go right ahead.

13 MR. COSTA: Thank you, your Honor.

14 BY MR. COSTA:

15 Q. Mr. Amadio, I just want to come back to this ch art from0 2 : 2 1

16 earlier, this morning. And it basically shows th e money starts

17 at the bank and then goes to this middle entity, which was

18 typically Stanford Financial Group?

19 A. That's correct.

20 Q. And then, from there, the money goes to all the se other0 2 : 2 1

21 Stanford companies?

22 A. That is right.

23 Q. Now, just looking at the bottom half of this ch art, from

24 here on down, is there any problem with Mr. Stanf ord, the

25 shareholder, as a general matter, giving money to all these0 2 : 2 2

Page 124: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2416

1 companies he owned?0 2 : 2 2

2 If you just look from here on down.

3 A. No. That would be considered as shareholder co ntributions

4 to each entity, as capital --

5 Q. So, what about this entire picture gave you all those0 2 : 2 2

6 concerns?

7 A. The fact that those fundings were truly not com ing from the

8 shareholder, but they were coming directly from t he bank, the

9 depositors' money.

10 Q. So, it's this top half is the reason you were c oncerned?0 2 : 2 2

11 A. That's correct.

12 Q. And your funding report you were asked to creat e that

13 showed the total amount coming from the bank ulti mately to all

14 these other companies, that was the document that only a few

15 select people were allowed to see, according to t he0 2 : 2 2

16 instructions you were given?

17 A. Yes, that's correct.

18 Q. And it's based on your report that you compiled that you

19 concluded there were these inaccuracies in the an nual reports?

20 A. That is correct.0 2 : 2 3

21 Q. Did anyone ever tell you that because the bank was selling

22 CDs it was okay to lie in the annual report?

23 A. No.

24 Q. Do you agree with that, that since the bank is selling CDs

25 it's okay to lie in the annual report or other pr omotional0 2 : 2 3

Page 125: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2417

1 materials?0 2 : 2 3

2 A. I don't agree with that.

3 Q. Why not?

4 A. Because the investors, the depositors, the clie nts are

5 looking for accurate information disclosed on tho se annual0 2 : 2 3

6 reports, to make decisions to invest that money i n the bank.

7 Q. I want to go on to another topic. Did the acco unting

8 department keep track of Mr. Stanford's personal expenses?

9 A. Yes.

10 Q. Now, I take it, when you or any other employee went on a0 2 : 2 4

11 business trip, you submitted an expense report fo r that?

12 A. That is correct.

13 Q. And did Mr. Stanford -- was he able to do the s ame if he

14 went to a business meeting or had a business lunc h?

15 A. That's correct.0 2 : 2 4

16 Q. But in addition to those expense reports that M r. Stanford

17 and all the other employees could submit, what wa s tracked for

18 Mr. Stanford in addition to those expense reports ?

19 A. Any payments made related to personal -- person al nature

20 was kept in an accounts receivable account catego ry in the0 2 : 2 4

21 books.

22 Q. So, the business was paying for personal expens es of

23 Mr. Stanford?

2 Financial Group Company, Limited.

3 Q. You said it was treated -- these personal expen ses of

4 Mr. Stanford were treated as an account receivabl e?

5 A. Yes.0 2 : 2 5

6 Q. Just in plain terms, what's an "account receiva ble"?

7 A. It's money that is owed to the company.

8 Q. So, the idea was Mr. Stanford would owe this mo ney back to

9 the company that was paying his personal expenses ?

10 A. That's correct.0 2 : 2 5

11 MR. COSTA: Can we go to the Elmo, your Honor?

9 A. There was -- one of them is line item for the A merican

10 Express, which we didn't have line of sight of th e specifics of0 2 : 2 6

11 those expenses; but they were his corporate card.

12 Q. If we look, this is the 2008 portion of the spr eadsheet.

13 The type is somewhat small, but what does that sh ow for

14 February 2008 as an expense?

1 A. 118,453.0 2 : 2 7

2 Q. Mechanically, how was Mr. Stanford's American E xpress bill

3 paid?

4 A. In the past, mechanically, it was -- a check re quest was

5 required or requested by his personal CPA. 0 2 : 2 8

6 Q. Who was that? Remind us. You mentioned him th is morning.

7 A. Yeah, that was Harry Failing. And he would go ahead and

8 pay for -- we will pay the AmEx statement; and th en, in the

9 past, he will bring us a personal check written b y Mr. Stanford

10 to pay some of those amounts down.0 2 : 2 8

11 Q. And on this spreadsheet that lists the expenses for a

12 number of years, the personal expenses, are there a number of

13 credits shown that show Mr. Stanford paying off t hese personal

14 expenses that the company had paid for?

15 A. That went for -- for a little bit, and then it didn't -- it0 2 : 2 8

16 stopped. It was not paid back.

17 Q. When it was showing repayments for these person al expenses,

18 what was being used to offset the personal expens es the company

19 was paying for, for Mr. Stanford?

20 A. On occasions when the balance really continued to grow, it0 2 : 2 9

21 was paid by reducing the notes payable that the c ompany owed to

22 the shareholder, it was netted out against the ac counts

23 receivable what he owed to the company.

24 Q. And let's break that down because there's a lot of

25 accounting in there. The way this setup worked, the flow of0 2 : 2 9

2 treated as money it owed Mr. Stanford, the shareh older?

3 A. That is correct.

4 Q. And -- but in truth, it came from the bank, ult imately?

5 A. Ultimately, yes.0 2 : 3 0

6 Q. So, there were these amounts the companies owed

7 Mr. Stanford on paper?

8 A. That's correct.

9 Q. And it's those amounts that were owed back to M r. Stanford

10 that were reduced to cover these personal expense s of0 2 : 3 0

4 A. Yes.

5 Q. Did those transactions involve real estate?0 2 : 5 1

6 A. No.

7 Q. What did they involve?

8 A. They involved private equity.

9 Q. What is private equity?

1 A. 2004 and 2007.0 2 : 5 2

2 Q. Were you involved in the 2007 transaction?

3 A. Yes, I was.

4 Q. And generally explain how that transaction work ed.

5 A. Stanford Venture Capital had a list of private equity that0 2 : 5 2

6 they owned. And so, from that list several of th ose companies

7 were picked to transfer that investment into Ster ling Bank.

8 But the way it would flow, it would go first -- i t would

9 transfer at cost to Mr. Stanford, since he was th e sole

10 shareholder of Stanford Venture Capital. And fro m0 2 : 5 3

11 Mr. Stanford, Mr. Stanford then will transfer tha t -- those

12 private equities at market value to the bank.

13 Q. The flow of that transaction, is that similar t o what you

14 saw in that attachment to the real estate deal?

15 A. Similar, yes.0 2 : 5 3

16 MR. COSTA: If we can go to Government 415.

25 private equity be given to the bank?0 2 : 5 4

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 147: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2439

1 A. I believe at that time the bank was needing, al so, again,0 2 : 5 4

2 to be capitalized, increase the capital.

3 Q. What is the capital? What does "capital" mean?

4 A. That's the shareholder's equity infusion of cas h into

5 his -- into the bank.0 2 : 5 4

6 Q. Why did the bank need more capital in 2007?

7 A. I believe at that time there's -- according to regulations,

8 the bank had a certain ratio between liabilities and the assets

9 and that is that cushion that needs to be kept in the capital

10 portion to be able to -- in case of withdrawals o f deposits to0 2 : 5 5

11 have enough to cover for those withdrawals.

12 Q. That's the cushion where the regulations want t he bank's

13 assets to be more than what it owes the depositor s?

14 A. That is correct.

15 Q. There has to be a certain amount -- a cushion t here of a0 2 : 5 5

16 certain level?

17 A. Yes.

18 Q. And in 2007 that cushion wasn't enough, so ther e needed to

19 be capital put into the bank?

20 A. That's correct.0 2 : 5 5

21 Q. Did Mr. Stanford just write a check to deal wit h that?

22 A. He could.

23 Q. Did he?

24 A. No.

25 Q. How do you know he could have? How do you know he had the0 2 : 5 5

1 money to do that?0 2 : 5 5

2 A. Well, I didn't know if he had the money. But I 'm saying

3 that that --

4 Q. Theoretically he could have, you're saying?

5 A. In theory, that would have been a proper proced ure.0 2 : 5 5

6 Q. But did he do that?

7 A. No.

8 Q. Instead of writing a check to increase that cus hion that

9 the bank needed, he transferred this private equi ty to the

10 bank?0 2 : 5 6

11 A. That is correct.

12 MR. COSTA: We can go to Page 3.

13 BY MR. COSTA:

14 Q. Does this show the movement of that private equ ity that was

2 into -- in the financials of Stanford Venture Cap ital.

5 Q. And then when it went to Mr. Stanford, what was going to0 2 : 5 7

8 to Stanford International Bank, Limited.

15 A. Well, market value could be higher or could be lower.0 2 : 5 7

16 It --

17 THE COURT: Well, some of those figures we saw in one

18 other one had higher amounts. But was that just an estimate?

19 Like purchasing all those -- the islands and so f orth, a lot of

20 it said the purchase price and actual market valu e; but it goes0 2 : 5 8

2 A. Correct, this is not land.

3 Q. This is private equity?

4 A. That is correct.

5 Q. But is it your understanding it's the same type of flow0 2 : 5 8

6 that was being planned for that real estate?

7 A. Yes. Similar, yes.

8 Q. But with the private equity, when Mr. Stanford then would

9 send it to the bank, that was going to be at mark et value?

10 A. That is correct, yes.0 2 : 5 8

11 Q. Which should be what? The current prevailing m arket price,

12 what someone would be willing to pay for that tod ay?

1 A. It's risky. It's a risk business.0 2 : 5 9

2 Q. What about the liquidity of private equity inve stments?

3 A. Well, since they're not -- they're not public, you can't --

4 you can't sell those stocks in the market and fin d -- easily to

5 find buyers like you would have owning Exxon or S hell.0 2 : 5 9

6 Q. If I wanted to find the market value today of E xxon stock,

7 what would I have to do?

8 A. I mean, you will just go to a broker/dealer, bu y the

9 stocks.

10 Q. To find what the value is, can I just go on the Internet?0 3 : 0 0

11 A. Oh, that's right, you can go to the Internet.

12 Q. Or open up the business section of the newspape r?

13 A. That's correct, yes.

14 Q. How do you find market value for these private equity

15 investments that aren't traded on a public exchan ge?0 3 : 0 0

16 A. It is more complex. You -- there's got to be a n

17 independent valuation done to get a number to see what will be

18 the market value of those -- of those investments .

19 Q. What do you mean by an "independent valuation"?

20 A. There's studies that they need to do on the fin ancials of0 3 : 0 0

21 those private companies to see if they're worth w hat they're

22 being valued at.

23 Q. And what do you mean by "independent"?

24 A. Well, there is companies that can provide that type of

25 independent valuation. Now, you cannot come up w ith a market0 3 : 0 1

1 value on your own.0 3 : 0 1

2 Q. Why not?

3 A. Because it would not be independent and objecti ve. I mean,

4 you can have an idea how much they're worth, but it's always

5 better to have an independent, objective valuatio n.0 3 : 0 1

6 Q. Are you familiar with the term "arm's length tr ansactions"?

7 A. Yes.

8 Q. What's that mean, an arm's length transaction?

9 A. It means that what would -- a third party would pay for

10 that.0 3 : 0 1

11 Q. Would these -- a transfer from Stanford Venture Capital

12 Holdings, which is owned by whom?

13 A. Mr. Stanford.

14 Q. -- to Mr. Stanford personally and then to a ban k that

15 Mr. Stanford owns, would those be considered arm' s length0 3 : 0 1

16 transactions?

17 A. Those are --

18 MR. SCARDINO: Objection, unless he's established he's

19 qualified to answer that question.

20 THE COURT: Okay.0 3 : 0 1

21 BY MR. COSTA:

22 Q. In your view, based on your accounting experien ce, would

23 those be arm's length transactions?

24 A. Those would be arm's length transactions.

25 Q. Would they be -- well, what happened when -- wh o was asked0 3 : 0 2

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 153: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2445

1 to value the transfers?0 3 : 0 2

2 A. Let me -- let me say that again. The related p arty

3 transactions, the term "arm's length transaction, " if it is --

4 if that transfer happened in the way that a third party would

5 go ahead and pay and value that investment, that' s an arm's0 3 : 0 2

6 length transaction.

7 Q. Explain that again. Was a third party involved in these

8 transactions, other than Mr. Stanford?

9 A. No, there wasn't.

10 Q. So, where did the market value come from that w as used when0 3 : 0 2

11 these transactions were done? Did -- was that in dependent

12 valuation obtained?

13 A. No, there was no independent valuation.

14 Q. Who came up with the numbers to use for that ma rket

15 valuation?0 3 : 0 3

16 A. Initially there was the capital markets team un der Stanford

17 Venture Capital provided some pro forma of the fi nancials of

18 these private equity companies and they gave thei r opinion of

19 what the value were.

20 Q. Did they make a recommendation, though, as to w hat should0 3 : 0 3

21 be done before the transactions actually took pla ce?

22 A. Yeah, they had a disclaimer on their valuation, which was

23 that it is recommended to seek independent valuat ion on those

24 private equities.

25 Q. And were you in discussions with Mr. Davis abou t this0 3 : 0 3

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

1 transaction?0 3 : 0 4

2 A. Yes, we were.

3 Q. Was this a transaction that had to wait for app roval from

4 Mr. Stanford?

5 A. He mentioned that he was going to show this to0 3 : 0 4

6 Mr. Stanford.

7 Q. Was that independent outside valuation obtained to

8 determine what the market value was of these inve stments that

9 weren't traded on a public exchange?

10 A. There was no independent valuation.0 3 : 0 4

11 Q. Was a reason given why no outside valuation was performed

12 even though the Stanford Venture Capital folks ha d recommended

13 that be done?

14 A. There was a rush to get this done in a timely m anner, very

15 quickly because of the need of capital.0 3 : 0 4

16 Q. At the bank?

17 A. At the bank.

18 Q. And was there a transaction similar to this bac k in 2004?

19 A. Yes, there was.

20 Q. And do you recall roughly in the 2004 transacti on the0 3 : 0 4

21 markup between what was the book value and the ma rket value?

22 Do you recall how much that was?

23 A. It was about -- if I recall correctly, I think it was

24 $310 million that was finally valued on those inv estments.

25 Q. And what was done with that 310 in marked-up va lue? How0 3 : 0 5

Page 155: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2447

1 was that treated?0 3 : 0 5

2 A. That was treated to reduce the balance in the s hareholder

3 funding.

4 Q. These billions that had gone from the CD deposi tors to

5 Mr. Stanford's other companies?0 3 : 0 5

6 A. That is correct, yes.

7 MR. COSTA: If we can go back to the Elmo, your H onor.

8 THE COURT: Let me ask you this. Is that resolut ion

9 better?

10 THE JURORS: (In unison) Yes.0 3 : 0 6

11 THE COURT: I think we figured it out. I think w e

12 figured it out. We'll attend to it during the ne xt break.

13 Go on.

14 MR. COSTA: Thank you, your Honor.

15 BY MR. COSTA: 0 3 : 0 6

16 Q. Is this the end of 2007 report we saw of shareh older

17 funding?

18 MR. SCARDINO: Mr. Costa, what exhibit is this?

19 A JUROR: No, no.

20 MR. COSTA: Well, that's my fault. That's a focu s0 3 : 0 6

21 issue.

22 THE COURT: Please, focus it in, please.

23 MR. COSTA: It's 331.

24 THE COURT: You need a little more focus on it no w

25 also. I'm looking. Go look at the numbers from here. No,0 3 : 0 6

1 focus, is there a focus on there instead of a zoo m?0 3 : 0 6

2 MR. COSTA: It's usually an auto focus. It usual ly

3 does it itself, adjusts but --

4 THE COURT: All right. Just keep going. Okay.

5 BY MR. COSTA: 0 3 : 0 6

6 Q. Is this the 2007 year end shareholder funding r eport?

7 A. Yes, it is.

8 Q. And we saw earlier that the total amount that h ad gone from

9 the depositors to Mr. Stanford's other companies at the end of

10 '07 was 1.6 billion and change?0 3 : 0 7

11 A. That's right.

12 Q. And then is there an entry on here to show that amount

13 reduced based on that private equity flip we just saw?

14 A. Yes, there is.

15 Q. And that was the one from 2004?0 3 : 0 7

16 A. Yes, sir.

17 Q. And it's crediting $310 million as repayment of what

18 Mr. Stanford owes the CD depositors?

19 A. That is correct.

20 Q. Now, was that actually cash?0 3 : 0 7

21 A. No, that was not cash.

22 Q. Was it a -- there wasn't a check Mr. Stanford w rote to pay

23 back the loans?

24 A. No, it wasn't.

25 Q. It's just based on this valuation that Mr. Stan ford's own0 3 : 0 7

1 employees had given the private equity?0 3 : 0 7

2 A. That is correct.

3 Q. And so, then it shows a total remaining balance of

4 1.3 billion at year end '07?

5 A. That is correct, yes.0 3 : 0 8

6 Q. For most of the day you've been discussing a nu mber of

21 to Mr. Garcia about your concerns?

22 A. I felt that I could trust him and since he was the internal

23 auditor director of internal audit, I just wanted to tell him

24 what was my concern.

25 Q. What did you tell Mr. Garcia?0 3 : 0 9

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 158: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2450

1 A. I told him that the funding -- all the funding that is0 3 : 0 9

2 going to all of the entities, it was my belief th at all that

3 money was coming from the clients' deposits from the bank and I

4 told him also that the revenue entries were done based on

5 estimations. He expressed --0 3 : 0 9

6 Q. Well, let's stop there. Let's break that down. The first

7 thing you said was you told him there was all thi s funding that

8 you thought -- you figured had to be coming from the CD

9 depositors because Mr. Stanford didn't have enoug h profit in

10 the bank?0 3 : 1 0

11 A. That is correct, yes.

12 Q. And then the second point you told him was abou t the --

13 relating to the financial statements?

14 A. Yes, that's correct.

15 Q. Was Mr. Garcia surprised when you told him that all these0 3 : 1 0

16 companies' funding was coming from CD depositors?

18 Q. As the internal auditor, was he able to give yo u comfort

19 that you had no reason to worry and that the numb ers were good

20 and accurate?0 3 : 1 0

21 A. No, no comfort. He agreed that even though the internal

22 audit had requested to see the portfolio, it was not given to

23 them. And he acknowledged that that information was never

24 given to them.

25 Q. About when was this discussion with Mr. Garcia down in the0 3 : 1 1

12 Q. And by that time in mid to late 2008, were you looking to

13 leave your job at Stanford Financial?

14 A. Yes.

15 Q. What were you being paid at the end of your tim e then?0 3 : 1 1

16 A. 95,000.

17 Q. What did you do to try to find another job in 2 008?

18 A. I started posting my résumé, Monster.com, Caree rBuilders.

21 interviews. And I declined that --

22 Q. Why didn't you want to go work at Wal-Mart?

23 A. It was -- I had to relocate to Arkansas and -- but I

2452

1 At that time the economy was getting a little bit tougher and0 3 : 1 2

2 tougher to find jobs.

12 Q. And did your wife want to relocate all the kids who were in

13 school to Arkansas?

14 A. No, sir.

15 Q. Why were you looking to leave Stanford in 2008?0 3 : 1 3

16 A. At that time I was very uncomfortable and conce rned about

17 the size of how the funding report had grown and seeing that it

18 was never going to be repaid.

1 BY MR. COSTA: 0 3 : 1 4

2 Q. What was your concern about -- why were you con cerned about

3 how much this report you produced, about how much it had grown?

4 A. Because of the amount of money and how much tha t $2 billion

5 had grown to be and how much that was related to the size of0 3 : 1 4

6 the portfolio of the bank, that was a big concern . There was a

7 lot of misleading information provided to the cli ents.

6 housekeeping matters.

7 (Sotto voce discussion at bench with court staff)

8 THE COURT: Okay. Sorry.

9 MR. COSTA: I was asking him what the receiver's

11 nothing -- it's not a true or false statement, ju st what the

12 instructions were.

13 THE COURT: Okay. Your objections?

19 THE COURT: They call that -- is that the footbal l?

20 BY MR. COSTA: 0 3 : 1 7

21 Q. (Indicating)?

22 A. That was the external drive that was called the football.

1 name "football"?0 3 : 1 8

2 THE WITNESS: That name was given by another

3 accountant, a coworker that he will refer to as t he football.

4 THE COURT: Any reason -- does he know -- do you know

5 why he referred to it --0 3 : 1 8

6 BY MR. COSTA:

7 Q. Can you show the jury how would you carry this around the

8 office that led to it being called the football b y Mr. Roca?

9 You can stand up if you would like.

10 THE COURT: Okay. Sure, if you want to. Wait. Hold0 3 : 1 8

11 it. Hold it. This is diversion, just my diversi on. Hang on a

12 second. I'll explain it. What the heck.

13 I'll explain it to the jury, that my theory

14 was -- I understand that that's an in-house decis ion that was

15 something had to carry and pass it from side to s ide. But0 3 : 1 8

16 the -- you know, the president of the United Stat es has a

17 military attache who walks with him all the time with a

18 briefcase, an important briefcase and they -- wit h the atomic

19 codes and everything else and that's called the f ootball. So,

20 I was just assuming -- I couldn't get that respon se out and0 3 : 1 9

21 that's why I said let's pass it up. But I see no harm in doing

22 it because it's taken on a secondary meaning amon g people in

23 the security area because that may have been how someone

24 decided to call it a football.

25 But if you notice the president, whenever he0 3 : 1 9

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 165: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2457

1 travels, there's always a uniform military person of some --0 3 : 1 9

2 they shift off the job, Navy, Air Force, Marine C orps, Coast

3 Guard and -- what did I leave out -- Army, always with him with

4 a briefcase and that's the -- the atomic codes ar e in that and

5 it's known in that genre as the football. So muc h for all0 3 : 1 9

6 that.

7 Did you take all that -- I guess she took it all

8 down. So, in effect, if the Appeals Court doesn' t know what it

9 is, in my humble opinion -- you're to disregard a nything the

10 judge says. You'll find me saying that from time to time. It0 3 : 1 9

11 has no relevance whatsoever to this case. But ma ybe we could

12 have had a -- we needed a little break and now we 'll move on.

13 The attorneys know what I'm talking about, right?

14 MR. COSTA: Absolutely.

15 THE COURT: All right. Is that correct, Mr. Scar dino?0 3 : 2 0

16 MR. SCARDINO: Whatever it is, Judge, it's correc t.

17 THE COURT: No, no. It's the matter we discussed

1 Q. If you want to stand up, Mr. Amadio, and show h ow you0 3 : 2 0

2 would -- when you had to walk around with that, h ow you would

3 walk around that led to it being called the footb all.

4 A. Normally when I would walk around, it would be connected to

5 the laptop and I would carry this together with t he laptop from0 3 : 2 0

6 my office to -- to a conference room, let's say. And that's

7 when Rolando Roca saw me like that. And I would put it in top

8 of the conference room table and work off and upd ate

9 information of that shareholder funding report, s ave it, and

10 then carry it back to my office.0 3 : 2 0

11 Q. So, it would be in your hand like that?

12 A. Yeah, it would be in my hand like this.

13 Q. Thank you. You can sit back down.

14 So, you said the day the receiver came in, that

15 was in your laptop bag?0 3 : 2 1

16 A. Yes, it was.

17 Q. And you took it home?

18 A. And I took it home, yes.

19 Q. Why did you take that -- the football home?

20 A. That external drive was -- I took it home becau se I had --0 3 : 2 1

21 since they were going to take the laptop and I th ought they

22 were not going to return it, I had pictures and p ersonal files

23 on the laptop that I had already saved in the ext ernal drive.

24 It was a stupid and -- stupid decision on my part of doing

25 that. But the rationale behind that was I had a memory0 3 : 2 1

2 A. Not only because I probably didn't have money t o do that,

23 A. You said the financials. The financials do not show that.

24 Let me just clarify that with you.

25 Q. Bear with me. I'm a lawyer and not a CPA or an accountant0 3 : 4 1

1 and the worst businessman you ever met. So, if I don't use a0 3 : 4 1

2 word of art that accurately describes what we're talking about,

3 feel free to bring me into the loop with the corr ect

4 terminology because I may get it wrong. Can we h ave that

5 understanding? If I ask you a question you don't understand,0 3 : 4 1

6 let me know. I'll try to get it straight.

7 A. Sure.

8 Q. Okay. Let's back up a little bit, though, to w hen you

9 first met with the FBI. There was something abou t that that

10 made you very nervous, wasn't there?0 3 : 4 1

11 A. Well, it would make everybody nervous if --

12 Q. Okay. Well, let's not talk about everybody.

13 THE COURT: The answer -- again, it will go a lot

14 quicker, yes or no. And if you can't answer a qu estion yes or

15 not, let me know, let the attorney know. Unless he asks for a0 3 : 4 1

16 narrative, and then you can explain yourself.

17 THE WITNESS: Yes, your Honor.

18 THE COURT: All right. Go on.

19 BY MR. SCARDINO:

20 Q. Mr. Amadio, I'll give it to you that dealing wi th the FBI0 3 : 4 1

21 in a circumstance where they want to ask you ques tions about

22 something that they consider criminal might make you

23 apprehensive, right?

24 A. That's correct.

25 Q. Right. You were more than apprehensive in that meeting,0 3 : 4 2

1 though, weren't you?0 3 : 4 2

2 A. I was.

3 Q. You fainted, didn't you?

4 A. Uh-huh, yes, I did.

5 Q. Did they bring a medical personnel in to help y ou?0 3 : 4 2

6 A. No.

7 Q. Okay. How long were you out?

8 A. Probably few minutes maybe.

9 Q. When did you faint? Did you faint when they go t there,

10 while they were there, after they left?0 3 : 4 2

11 A. Probably after they left, yes.

12 Q. So, you didn't faint while they were there?

13 A. No.

14 Q. Okay. So, it was something that you were very concerned

15 about?0 3 : 4 2

16 A. Yes.

17 Q. Did you tell them that you were concerned?

18 A. Not at the moment that we talked.

19 Q. How long did you work for this company?

20 A. Six years.0 3 : 4 2

21 Q. Six years?

2478

1 Q. And you told the jury you think you performed t hat service,0 3 : 4 3

2 right?

3 A. I performed the service that I was hired for.

4 Q. And during the six years, are you telling this jury that

5 you think that you helped people commit crimes wh ile you were0 3 : 4 3

6 there?

7 A. Never intended to commit crimes.

8 Q. Never intended to commit crimes. Okay. Did an ybody tell

9 you that works for the government that they thoug ht that maybe

10 you did commit crimes?0 3 : 4 3

11 A. I don't know how to answer that question. My i ntention was

12 never to commit any crimes.

13 Q. Yes, sir. But my point is is in your interview s with the

14 FBI or members of the prosecution team or any age nts for the

15 Internal Revenue Service, was it ever suggested t o you in those0 3 : 4 3

16 six years when you helped prepare all this inform ation that you

17 shared with the jury that that effort might be in terpreted that

18 you helped commit a crime?

19 A. Looking back and knowing the information that I do know now

20 and not knowing and having all of the information in front of0 3 : 4 4

21 me and learning time after time, I can look back and say, you

22 know, that I did not have all the information.

23 Q. Yes, sir. That's not my question, Mr. Amadio. My question

24 is: Were you informed during this entire process of dealing

25 with the government at every level, with prosecut ors,0 3 : 4 4

1 investigators, criminal investigators for the Int ernal Revenue0 3 : 4 4

2 Service that interviewed you back in May for two days, on May

3 the 5th and 6th of 2010, during any of those inte rviews and

4 conversations did any government agent say to you , "Pal, you

5 might be in trouble"?0 3 : 4 5

6 A. If I recall correctly, yes, I believe --

7 Q. Yes, right. You were threatened, weren't you?

8 A. I don't think --

9 THE COURT: Threatened or he felt threatened? Yo u say

10 threatened.0 3 : 4 5

11 MR. SCARDINO: I said threatened.

12 BY MR. SCARDINO:

13 Q. I mean, you felt threatened, right?

14 A. I don't think I felt threatened.

15 Q. Well, they sent -- was it an FBI agent or was t he criminal0 3 : 4 5

16 intelligence investigator with the Internal Reven ue Service?

17 A. I was pretty intimidated, yes, to be in a room like that.

18 Q. Yes. Kalford Young, special agent, pretty badg e, Internal

19 Revenue Service, criminal intelligence, suggestin g you may have

20 committed a crime, right? Scares you?0 3 : 4 5

21 A. I was nervous, yes, very.

22 Q. Yeah. Did you faint again?

23 A. I'm sorry?

24 Q. Did you faint again?

25 A. No, I didn't.0 3 : 4 5

Page 188: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2480

1 Q. Okay. But you did hire a criminal lawyer, didn 't you?0 3 : 4 5

2 A. Yes, I did.

3 Q. Okay. And was that Stacey Bond?

4 A. At that time, yes.

5 Q. And then after that, she left the firm you had hired and0 3 : 4 6

6 another lawyer came in, right?

7 A. That's correct.

8 Q. And then because of the threat you perceived or that was

9 made that maybe you had committed a crime, you an d this lawyer

10 made a deal with the government to sit down and t alk to them0 3 : 4 6

11 and tell them what you know, right?

12 A. We agreed to talk.

13 Q. You agreed to do that and you had a lawyer that gave you

14 advice about how you should do that, right?

15 A. That's correct, yes.0 3 : 4 6

16 Q. And because you were scared that, oh, my goodne ss, the six

17 years I worked at Stanford, I never thought I com mitted a

18 crime, right? You didn't think you had?

19 A. That's right.

20 Q. But you were terrified that somebody from the g overnment0 3 : 4 6

21 might say, Oh, my God, I'm going to throw you in the same pot

22 as Allen Stanford?

23 A. Yeah, I was concerned.

24 Q. Anybody tell you how much time you might get in prison if

25 you were convicted of what they thought you may h ave done?0 3 : 4 6

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 189: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2481

1 A. No.0 3 : 4 6

2 Q. No. But the thought of going to prison with yo ur family

3 that you already testified to was overwhelming, w asn't it?

4 A. Yes, it was.

5 Q. So, that process developed to where you and you r lawyer met0 3 : 4 7

6 with the prosecutors and you put together somethi ng called a

7 proffer agreement, didn't you?

8 A. That is correct.

9 Q. That is correct. And the proffer agreement is something

10 where you sit down and talk to the government abo ut what you0 3 : 4 7

11 know and they tell you that if you lie to them, i n their

12 opinion, if you lie to them, then they're going t o prosecute

13 you. But if you tell them the truth, in their op inion, they'll

14 make some kind of an agreement with you, whether it's not to

15 prosecute you or to prosecute you at a certain le vel, things0 3 : 4 7

16 like that, right? That's a proffer agreement. W as that your

17 understanding of the agreement you had with the g overnment?

18 A. For the most part, yes.

19 Q. All right. And did they give you a copy of tha t agreement?

20 A. Yes.0 3 : 4 7

21 Q. Do you have it with you?

22 A. Not in front of me, no.

23 Q. Do you have it somewhere nearby where we can ta ke a peek at

24 it?

25 A. I don't have it with me.0 3 : 4 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 190: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2482

1 Q. Okay. So, there's no way we can look to see wh at you told0 3 : 4 8

2 the government that day and compare it to what yo u have

3 testified to here today?

4 MR. COSTA: I would object, your Honor. It was g iven

5 to prior counsel.0 3 : 4 8

6 THE COURT: Say again.

7 MR. COSTA: It was given as part of discovery,

8 produced, the indication that the defense doesn't have access

9 to it.

10 MR. SCARDINO: Well, if we've had access to it -- we0 3 : 4 8

11 have thousands of documents and I owe an apology to the

12 government if we have it and just -- I don't have it in my

13 hands.

14 BY MR. SCARDINO:

15 Q. But you do have a copy and you have it somewher e?0 3 : 4 8

16 A. Yes.

17 Q. Okay. So, Mr. Amadio, with all of that backgro und, with

18 your interview with the FBI and the special agent with the IRS

19 and your proffer agreement with prosecutors who c an decide

20 whether they're going to charge you with a crime or not, you0 3 : 4 8

21 come in here and you tell this jury your story, r ight?

22 A. I told them what I knew.

23 Q. Yes, sir. And if you don't tell the jury what is

24 consistent with the prosecutor's theory of the ca se, what

25 happens?0 3 : 4 9

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 191: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2483

1 A. I told them what I knew and what I did.0 3 : 4 9

2 Q. Yes, sir.

3 A. Not what the prosecution theory is.

4 Q. Let's jump to the end of the chase. Is it your

5 understanding that if these prosecutors think you tell this0 3 : 4 9

6 jury something that they disagree with, you could be in a lot

7 of trouble, couldn't you?

8 A. I'm here to tell the truth.

9 Q. Yes, sir. I didn't ask you that. Is it your u nderstanding

10 that if you testify to something that's different than what0 3 : 4 9

11 these prosecutors think is the truth or what thei r theory of

12 the case is, you're in trouble, aren't you?

13 MR. COSTA: I object to argumentative and asked a nd

14 answered.

15 THE COURT: Sustained as to argumentative. You m ay0 3 : 4 9

16 continue on this line if you desire.

17 MR. SCARDINO: Yes, your Honor.

18 BY MR. SCARDINO:

19 Q. There's no promise -- Mr. Costa asked you, you' ve got no

20 promise you're not going to be prosecuted. Last thing he asked0 3 : 5 0

21 you, right?

22 A. That's what he said, yes.

23 Q. Right. So, you could still be prosecuted?

24 A. Yes, you're right.

25 Q. Right. So, again, if you say something that's inconsistent0 3 : 5 0

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 192: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2484

1 with what they think, Mr. Costa told you, you can still be0 3 : 5 0

2 prosecuted?

3 A. May I say something?

4 Q. No. You have to answer the questions only.

5 A. Okay.0 3 : 5 0

6 THE COURT: You asking me or are you asking him? No,

7 are you asking me?

8 THE WITNESS: Yeah. Can I say something?

9 THE COURT: No. Just answer his questions.

10 THE WITNESS: I can't ask you anything.0 3 : 5 0

11 MR. SCARDINO: That was funny.

12 THE COURT: Well, you know --

13 MR. SCARDINO: That was funny.

14 THE COURT: You know, I couldn't resist. It's

15 always -- for instance, you see sometimes a lawye r tell the0 3 : 5 0

16 court reporter to read it back. If you're dealin g with

17 straight etiquette, you're supposed to ask the ju dge and he or

18 she will ask either the witness or the court repo rter to read

19 something back.

20 You've been there before, right, counsel?0 3 : 5 1

21 MR. SCARDINO: Yes, your Honor, couple of times.

22 THE COURT: You ready to take a break or you want to

23 keep --

24 MR. SCARDINO: I would. I would love to take a b reak.

25 THE COURT: All right. I'll grant that objection or0 3 : 5 1

2485

1 whatever you want to call it.0 3 : 5 1

2 Ladies and gentlemen, it's now about 10 minutes

3 to 4:00. We'll take 20 minutes at this point. W e'll be back

4 at 10 after 4:00. See you at that time.

5 (Recess was taken)0 3 : 5 1

6 THE COURT: Let's call the jury in, please.

7 (Jury present)

8 THE COURT: Thank you. Be seated. Just as a

9 reminder, tomorrow we'll be underway, as you reme mber, at

10 10:15.0 4 : 1 5

11 MR. SCARDINO: Proceed, your Honor?

12 THE COURT: Yes.

13 BY MR. SCARDINO:

14 Q. Mr. Amadio, I believe we left discussing the ag reement that

15 you have with the government prosecutors?0 4 : 1 5

16 A. Yes.

17 Q. And you entered into an agreement with them to tell the

18 truth, right?

19 A. (Indicating).

20 Q. And your understanding is that you don't have a free pass,0 4 : 1 5

21 that you can still be prosecuted if you say somet hing that is

22 characterized as untruthful?

23 A. Right. That's not true, correct.

24 Q. Now, tell the jury who gets to make the decisio n about

25 whether what you say is truthful or untruthful.0 4 : 1 5

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 194: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2486

1 A. (No response).0 4 : 1 5

2 Q. In the context of whether you're prosecuted for a crime in

3 the future?

4 A. As far as I know, that decision of what's truth ful is what

5 I know it's true.0 4 : 1 5

6 Q. No, I didn't -- it was an inartfully worded que stion.

7 Your understanding of your agreement with the

8 prosecutors --

9 A. Yes.

10 Q. -- is that you must tell the truth. Mr. Costa told you0 4 : 1 6

11 that you have no guarantee that you won't be pros ecuted for a

12 crime involving your relationship with the Stanfo rd business

13 that you worked for, right? You can still be pro secuted for

14 preparing these reports, for moving that football around, for

15 whatever they think helps you promote some crimin al enterprise0 4 : 1 6

16 and join a conspiracy and promote the ends of tha t conspiracy.

17 They could still do that, wouldn't they?

18 A. What I understand about that --

19 Q. Yes, sir.

20 A. -- is anything that I had talked to to the gove rnment, that0 4 : 1 6

21 if I change my story --

22 Q. Yes, sir.

23 A. -- and I say something that is not according to what I

24 already had spoken with them --

25 Q. Yes, sir.0 4 : 1 6

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 195: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2487

1 A. -- then in that case, yes.0 4 : 1 7

2 Q. And so, you talked today about things that were n't all in

3 the proffer agreement, was there? Did you cover everything, or

4 did you talk about more things today than you dis cussed with

5 the government in your proffer agreement?0 4 : 1 7

6 A. Pretty much we talked about --

7 Q. Everything?

8 A. -- most of it, yes.

9 Q. Okay. So, who makes the decision about whether you're

10 consistent with what you told them before and you 're consistent0 4 : 1 7

11 with their theory of the case and you're telling the truth as

12 they know it? Who makes that decision?

13 MR. COSTA: I would object that the proffer lette r

14 says anything about being consistent with our the ory of the

15 case. It's a mischaracterization.0 4 : 1 7

16 THE COURT: All right. To that extent, sustained .

17 You can rephrase it, counsel.

18 BY MR. SCARDINO:

19 Q. Well, if you say something that they don't thin k is

20 truthful, what happens?0 4 : 1 7

21 A. Based on what I had said before.

22 Q. Yes, sir. You're prosecuted?

23 A. If I had lied, yes.

24 Q. If you lie here today?

25 A. Yes.0 4 : 1 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 196: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2488

1 Q. If they think you lie here today, you get prose cuted,0 4 : 1 8

2 right?

3 A. If I lie --

4 Q. Right.

5 A. -- and I change what I have said before --0 4 : 1 8

6 Q. Yes, sir.

7 A. -- yes. Yes, sir.

8 Q. So, it has to be consistent?

9 A. Has to be consistent, yes.

10 Q. I mean, doesn't make any difference what the de fense0 4 : 1 8

11 thinks, right, in that regard about whether you'r e prosecuted

12 or not? We don't have that choice to make, do we ?

13 A. No.

14 Q. Judge Hittner sure doesn't have that choice to make, does

15 he, whether you're prosecuted or not, right?0 4 : 1 8

16 A. That's correct, yes.

17 Q. Jury doesn't have anything to say about that, r ight?

18 A. That's right.

19 Q. It's all in the hands of the prosecutors?

20 A. Right, based on what I had said before.0 4 : 1 8

21 Q. Now, based on that, you've been testifying here in front of

22 this jury for a number of hours about things that you

23 remembered, things that you did, people that you had

24 conversations with; and you shared that with the jury, right?

25 A. That's correct.0 4 : 1 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 197: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2489

1 Q. Okay. You didn't think you had done anything w rong the0 4 : 1 8

2 whole six years you were there, did you?

3 A. No.

4 Q. If you had seen somebody that was --

5 THE COURT: Hold it. The answer, is that correct , you0 4 : 1 9

6 said no. Sometimes we get into that. What he sa id, is that

7 correct --

8 MR. SCARDINO: I'll rephrase it.

9 THE COURT: You're safer saying "correct" if you agree

10 with him rather than yes or no because sometimes people say0 4 : 1 9

11 "no" and they really mean "yes." So, I just want to be clear.

12 MR. SCARDINO: Can I start over?

13 THE COURT: If you want. We can read that last

14 question back because I think we got a no and you , you know,

15 meant to get a yes. I was talking from the defen se point of0 4 : 1 9

16 view. You want it read back, counsel?

17 MR. SCARDINO: No, sir. If I could just rephrase it,

18 your Honor.

19 THE COURT: Yes, sir.

20 BY MR. SCARDINO: 0 4 : 1 9

21 Q. You didn't think you had done anything wrong?

22 A. That's correct.

23 Q. Okay. You didn't think you had committed any c rimes?

24 A. That's correct.

25 Q. Okay. And you worked there for six years?0 4 : 1 9

1 A. (Indicating).0 4 : 2 3

2 Q. I just bought a computer a few years ago, so yo u can tell

3 me a lot about this. I mean, how much informatio n can be

4 stored on this?

5 A. A lot of information related to files.0 4 : 2 4

6 Q. Okay. So, information relating to files is wha t was kept

7 on this device?

8 A. Correct, yes.

9 Q. And Jim Davis is the one that said: I want the information

10 downloaded on to something that can be carried ar ound as0 4 : 2 4

11 opposed to keeping it in some computer somewhere, right?

12 A. It was to be downloaded and then it was going t o be -- that

13 information was going to be sent to Antigua for t hem to

14 complete or do all those reports that were in tha t -- in that

15 hard drive.0 4 : 2 4

16 Q. Okay. And Mr. Davis was the one that said do i t this way?

17 A. He wanted it off the network, yes.

18 Q. Who took it off the network?

19 A. I did, I took it off the network.

20 Q. Okay. So, the order came down from Davis. Did it come0 4 : 2 5

21 directly from Davis to you, or did it go down thr ough Kuhrt and

22 Lopez to you?

23 A. Through Lopez, Kuhrt, and me.

24 Q. Okay. So, Lopez is the one that told you: Put that

25 information on this device?0 4 : 2 5

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 203: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2495

1 A. He informed Mark Kuhrt and then Mark told me.0 4 : 2 5

2 Q. Mr. Amadio, was it accessible in any other way other than

3 on this device?

4 A. The information that was pulled out of the netw ork was not

5 accessible, only accessible through that device.0 4 : 2 5

6 Q. And who would take the information off the comp uter and

7 transfer it here? Anybody other than you?

8 A. That was only me.

9 Q. Only you?

10 A. Uh-huh.0 4 : 2 5

11 Q. Kuhrt, Lopez, Davis, none of them did it, right ?

12 A. That's correct.

13 Q. Stanford sure didn't do it, right? I mean, do you know if

14 Stanford even could do it?

15 A. No, he didn't do it.0 4 : 2 5

16 Q. Do you know anything about Stanford's skill wit h computers

17 and hard drives and stuff like that?

18 A. No, I don't.

19 Q. You'd have no idea?

20 A. No idea.0 4 : 2 6

21 Q. Okay. So, was there anything inherently wrong with storing

22 the information on a device like this?

23 A. Initially it was -- there was nothing wrong if it was going

24 to be transferred to where originally they said t he parties

25 that were going to be doing the reporting.0 4 : 2 6

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 204: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2496

1 Q. Okay.0 4 : 2 6

2 A. But as some of this information stayed there an d it was not

3 going anywhere and nobody else was going to conti nue doing that

4 information, I felt -- I felt awkward.

5 Q. Well, you felt awkward; but you didn't think yo u were0 4 : 2 6

6 committing a crime?

7 A. At the moment, no, but I was feeling uneasy, ye s.

8 Q. But you didn't feel like you were committing a crime?

9 A. Not at the moment, no.

10 Q. And you said you had a thumb drive?0 4 : 2 6

11 A. That's right.

12 Q. What's that?

13 A. It's a smaller memory stick, smaller than that.

14 Q. Same thing but smaller?

15 A. Sure.0 4 : 2 6

16 Q. Okay. And was there information on the thumb d rive?

17 A. Yes.

18 Q. And when you would -- would you regularly take information

19 off of the computer and put it on to this device?

20 A. When I was still using that external drive, I w ould work0 4 : 2 7

21 off the -- directly from the computer to that dev ice.

22 Q. And would you get direction on what information to put from

23 the computer to that device, or did you have auth ority to

24 transfer what you thought should be transferred o r not?

25 A. No, I didn't have authority.0 4 : 2 7

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 205: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2497

1 Q. So, you were told specifically what information to put onto0 4 : 2 7

2 that device?

3 A. That's correct.

4 Q. By whom?

5 A. Through Mark and Gil.0 4 : 2 7

6 Q. Okay. And do you know if anybody gave them ins tructions on

7 what they told you to transfer to this device?

8 A. I believe through Mr. Davis.

9 Q. So, would you say Davis, then, was the guy in c ontrol of

10 not only saying: I want information off of the c omputer and0 4 : 2 7

11 inaccessible, but I want specific information rem oved from the

12 computer and put on this device?

13 A. What he communicated was to -- yes, to remove s pecific

14 information related to the bank off the network a nd put it into

15 that external drive.0 4 : 2 8

16 Q. And it wasn't Allen Stanford that did that?

17 A. That's correct.

18 Q. Okay. And so, again, what was on it? You said people that

19 had -- were top producers, people that sold a lot of product?

20 A. Then the question came: Okay, what reports? 0 4 : 2 8

21 And so, there was a folder in the network drive

22 and there was a lot of information related to the bank.

23 Q. Right.

24 A. Presentations done during the top producer meet ings.

25 Q. Right.0 4 : 2 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 206: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2498

1 A. And so, I asked if that was the information to be0 4 : 2 8

2 downloaded. And it was, yes, that information, a s well as

3 revenue entry, a spreadsheet as well as -- and th en I asked

4 about the shareholder funding report that also wa s going to be

5 considered to be as part of bank information that was supposed0 4 : 2 8

6 to be saved into the external drive. And it was decided by Gil

7 and Mark that, yes, that also as well was to be r emoved. And

8 eventually that information was going to be then shared and

9 given then to the accountants in Antigua to conti nue producing

10 those reports such as the top producer reports an d0 4 : 2 9

11 presentations.

12 Q. Okay. So, you didn't think it was necessarily a secret

13 other than that people outside the company wouldn 't have access

14 to the information?

15 A. Most of the information that was in the externa l drive was0 4 : 2 9

16 not a secret because that information was present ed to top

17 producers and other employees. The only report t hat I am aware

18 that was secretive and not to be shared with anyb ody else

19 besides Stanford, Mr. Davis, Gil and Mark and mys elf, that I

20 was preparing it, was the shareholder funding rep ort that was0 4 : 2 9

21 presented today.

22 Q. And the shareholder funding report was also on the device,

23 right?

24 A. That is correct.

25 Q. Okay. And you felt like that was not supposed to be0 4 : 3 0

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 207: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2499

1 disseminated to anybody, right?0 4 : 3 0

2 A. That's what I was told.

3 Q. Give me just a minute, Mr. Amadio. There's a l ot of data

4 here I need to work through.

5 Have you had an opportunity to look at the report0 4 : 3 0

6 that was generated by the IRS agent that intervie wed you for

7 two days back in May of 2010?

8 A. IRS agent?

9 Q. Yes, sir.

10 A. No.0 4 : 3 0

11 Q. Haven't looked at it, nobody gave you a copy of it?

12 A. I don't recall.

13 Q. Nobody later came back and said: These are the notes I

14 took of the interview. I want to make sure that I got it

15 right?0 4 : 3 1

16 A. I don't remember.

17 Q. Don't remember?

18 A. (Nodding head).

19 Q. Did anybody give you a copy of a report to revi ew to make

20 corrections that if something was communicated th at was0 4 : 3 1

21 incorrect, you could straighten it out?

22 A. I don't remember of any report provided to me t o make

23 corrections. Give me a little bit of a time fram e.

24 Q. Well, I will. But when you talked to the gover nment

25 prosecutors about this proffer you discussed, the y didn't say:0 4 : 3 1

Page 208: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2500

1 Listen, when you made the interview with this IRS criminal0 4 : 3 1

2 investigator, you told them this or that, we want to make sure

3 that's correct?

4 A. Sorry, I don't remember.

5 Q. Do you remember telling that criminal investiga tor that you0 4 : 3 1

6 tracked the shareholder note?

7 A. (No response).

8 Q. Do you remember telling the investigator that?

9 A. What was the name of the investigator?

10 Q. I'd have to look at it. It was Kalford Young.0 4 : 3 2

11 A. Mr. Scardino, was this in the May 5th and 6th m eeting? Is

12 that what you are referring to?

13 Q. That's correct.

14 A. There was a lot of people in that meeting, and I was

15 answering questions from multiple different peopl e during that0 4 : 3 2

16 time.

17 Q. There were a lot of people at that meeting?

18 A. A lot of individuals, yes.

19 Q. Okay. Were they all out -- looking out after y our best

20 interests?0 4 : 3 2

21 A. I don't know how to answer that question.

22 Q. Were they all working for the government?

23 A. It was the government, yes.

24 Q. Okay. Did you have a lawyer there?

25 A. Yes, I did.0 4 : 3 2

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 209: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2501

1 Q. Did you take notes of the meeting?0 4 : 3 2

2 A. I didn't take notes of the meeting.

3 Q. Okay. So, going back to Agent Young's intervie w with you

4 back in May of 2010, do you recall telling that c riminal

5 investigator for the Internal Revenue Service tha t you kept0 4 : 3 3

6 track of the shareholder notes?

7 A. Kept track of the shareholder notes payable, ye s.

8 Q. Shareholder notes payable?

9 A. Uh-huh.

10 Q. And was that part of a dialogue that you had wi th that0 4 : 3 3

11 person about what you did when you were working f or the

12 Stanford companies?

13 A. That was part of the responsibility to be able to account

14 properly the financials of every single instituti on, to keep

15 track of the shareholder funding.0 4 : 3 3

16 Q. Okay. And did you -- were you trying to explai n the whole

17 process of the shareholder borrowing money from t he bank and

18 that was loaned to shareholder and that whole pro cess that

19 we've talked about here for hours?

20 A. I believe so. I believe at that time we were t alking about0 4 : 3 3

21 that.

22 Q. The government was trying to figure out what wa s going on

23 with that, right?

24 A. They want to know -- they wanted to know more i nformation.

25 Q. Right. So, they were asking you to help them u nderstand0 4 : 3 4

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 210: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2502

1 the process wherein Mr. Stanford was borrowing mo ney from the0 4 : 3 4

2 bank?

3 A. They asked me questions about the process of th e

4 shareholder funding. They showed me the sharehol der funding

5 report and they asked me to explain about that an d I explained0 4 : 3 4

6 it.

7 Q. Okay. And they would ask -- you would explain it; they

8 would ask you more questions, right?

9 A. There would be questions, yes, and showing me m ore reports.

10 Q. When you were explaining that, that you kept tr ack of the0 4 : 3 4

11 shareholder notes, the loans that he made or the money that he

12 borrowed from the bank, did you tell them that th at was to be

13 kept secret?

14 A. Yes, I did.

15 Q. Well, do you remember also telling them that th e concept of0 4 : 3 4

16 the note payable in shareholder funding was known by the

17 accountants and all affiliated companies that rec eived

18 shareholder funding?

19 A. Yes.

20 Q. You told them that?0 4 : 3 5

21 A. That's correct.

22 Q. So, it was known by all the accountants of all of the

23 affiliated companies?

24 A. What was known from all the affiliated companie s, that the

25 shareholder was funding the cash needs of each an d one of these0 4 : 3 5

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 211: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2503

1 affiliated companies.0 4 : 3 5

2 Q. Yes, sir.

3 A. And so, that money was --

4 Q. Let me stop you. You're getting ahead of me.

5 A. Sure.0 4 : 3 5

6 Q. We'll get there in a minute. But what I want t o get to

7 here is that the concept of it was supposed to be a secret,

8 therefore, something untoward was going on and th ey're trying

9 to hide it. When you told the jury when -- when Mr. Costa was

10 questioning you that it was a secret and it was n ot to be0 4 : 3 5

11 disseminated, in fact, the information was put on a little

12 device that you carried around or put in your poc ket. So,

13 you're leaving the jury with the impression that this was

14 supposed to be a secret; but you're telling the a gent back in

15 May of 2010 that it was known by all the accounta nts of all of0 4 : 3 5

16 the affiliated companies that got money, right?

17 A. Can I answer?

18 Q. Well, you told him that, right?

19 A. Not correctly.

20 Q. Okay. Well, maybe it will refresh your memory. I can show0 4 : 3 6

21 you that part of the report. You can read it and see if it

22 helps you refresh your memory. I've drawn an arr ow there,

23 might help you -- read this paragraph right here.

24 A. (Complies).

25 Do you want me to read it out loud?0 4 : 3 6

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 212: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2504

1 Q. It's, in effect, a police report. It's hearsay . So, it0 4 : 3 6

2 can't come out; but you can read it to refresh yo ur memory.

3 A. (Complies).

4 Q. Okay?

5 A. Yeah.0 4 : 3 6

6 Q. Yeah.

7 A. In context of what it says there, that is corre ct.

8 Q. Yeah.

9 A. Every single accountant knew that there was mon ey coming in

10 on behalf of the shareholder.0 4 : 3 6

11 Q. So, when you tell the jury that only a few peop le were

12 aware of this within a little inner circle like K uhrt, Lopez,

13 Amadio and Davis and, therefore, Stanford, that a lot of

14 people -- it was 102 companies, wasn't it? I mea n --

15 A. Yeah, there was a lot of a companies.0 4 : 3 7

16 Q. Mr. Amadio, there's an exhibit here that Mr. Co sta showed

17 you --

18 MR. SCARDINO: Can I have the Elmo, your Honor?

19 THE COURT: Yes, sir.

20 MR. SCARDINO: Well, let's see if I can't figure this0 4 : 3 7

21 puppy out. Zoom. There we go.

22 BY MR. SCARDINO:

23 Q. Okay. Now, I digress here just a little bit, M r. Amadio.

24 But that's a list of the companies that are refer red to in this

25 conversation with Agent Young, isn't it?0 4 : 3 7

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 213: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2505

1 A. That's correct.0 4 : 3 7

2 Q. Okay. And so, all of the accountants of all of these

3 affiliated companies of which these are listed wo uld all have

4 knowledge of the loans to shareholder, right?

5 A. They will have knowledge to the loans to shareh older, but0 4 : 3 7

6 they will not know where this money was coming fr om.

7 Q. Okay. But -- well, I want to talk about that i n a minute.

8 But it really wasn't any of their business, was i t, where the

9 money was coming from?

10 A. Well, the accountants, what they will be concer ned, it0 4 : 3 8

11 would be to book their shareholder funding report -- I mean,

12 information properly.

13 Q. Well, they knew the money was coming from Allen Stanford,

14 right? He owned all the companies, right?

15 A. (No response).0 4 : 3 8

16 Q. Isn't that right?

17 A. He owned all the companies.

18 Q. So, they knew where the money was coming from. So, that

19 listing it, the source of the funds --

20 A. But knowing where the money was coming from the bank and0 4 : 3 8

21 knowing that that money was from the clients' dep osits, I think

22 that would have changed a lot of people's opinion s.

23 Q. And that's what we're here talking about and yo u're saying

24 that because you know if you don't take that posi tion, it's not

25 in agreement with the prosecutor?0 4 : 3 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 214: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2506

1 A. No, it's not that. It's the truth.0 4 : 3 8

2 Q. It's the truth as the prosecutor sees it?

3 A. No, it's the truth according to what I knew.

4 Q. Okay. That's why you have a lawyer in the cour troom?

5 A. I have a lawyer in the courtroom, yes.0 4 : 3 8

6 Q. Let's talk about this a little more. All right ? You told

7 the agent that they -- talking about the affiliat ed

8 companies -- knew that RAS -- that's Mr. Stanford -- was

9 providing funding to their respective companies?

10 A. That's correct.0 4 : 3 9

11 Q. Okay. Let's talk about that for a minute. Wha t was

12 happening -- tell me if I'm wrong. What was happ ening was that

13 Mr. Stanford was taking money from the bank, borr owing money

14 from the bank, right?

15 A. That's correct.0 4 : 3 9

16 Q. And your job was to keep track of that?

17 A. My job was to keep track of the shareholder fun ding to his

18 entities.

19 Q. Shareholder funding was part of that, that he b orrowed

20 money from the bank and then he funded these comp anies when0 4 : 3 9

21 they needed capital and as they needed capital, r ight?

22 A. That is correct.

23 Q. And so, that wasn't a secret, was it, that proc ess of

24 taking money from Company A and loaning it to the shareholder,

25 Allen Stanford, who owned the company, right, own ed a hundred0 4 : 4 0

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 215: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2507

1 percent of it? There was nothing wrong with that concept, was0 4 : 4 0

2 there?

3 A. There was wrong, yes. There was wrong.

4 Q. They were loans?

5 A. That part -- that part was wrong.0 4 : 4 0

6 Q. Okay. The company loaning Mr. Stanford money w as wrong?

7 A. Nowhere is disclosed that the bank was to discl ose money to

8 the shareholder. Sir, I disagree with you on tha t.

9 Q. You'll have plenty of time to straighten that o ut when

10 Mr. Costa gets you on redirect.0 4 : 4 0

11 Bear with me, Mr. Amadio.

12 So, your position is something wrong with the

13 bank loaning Mr. Stanford money; or do you think there was

14 something wrong with the way it was characterized to the people

15 that purchased the certificates of deposits? So that we're on0 4 : 4 1

16 the same page with this, don't you think that's w hat was wrong,

17 the way it was revealed to the persons that purch ased

18 Certificates of Deposit?

19 A. What was wrong is what was disclosed in the ann ual report

20 that there was no loans to -- for the bank to giv e out.0 4 : 4 1

21 Q. Well, the annual report specifically makes refe rence to

22 notes, does it not? Haven't we talked about that ? Didn't

23 Mr. Costa talk to you about that?

24 A. Notes but they're marketable notes; they're not private

25 equity notes.0 4 : 4 1

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 216: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2508

1 Q. It doesn't say that; it just says notes, doesn' t it?0 4 : 4 1

2 A. It says notes, but then there's a line that say s about

3 marketable.

4 Q. Okay.

5 A. So, if you are talking about lending money to a private0 4 : 4 2

6 individual, that's not marketable.

7 Q. The private individual was the person that owne d the

8 company, though, wasn't he?

9 A. But he doesn't own the deposits.

10 Q. Mr. Amadio, how knowledgeable are you regarding taxable0 4 : 4 2

11 events and non-taxable events and transferring mo ney from one

12 company to another? Is that something within you r realm of

13 expertise?

14 A. Somehow I'm knowledgeable. I'm not an expert.

15 Q. Yeah, you probably know more about it than I do . But is it0 4 : 4 2

16 not perfectly okay for a company to loan the owne r of the

17 company money for whatever purpose they want? Is that not

18 okay?

19 MR. COSTA: Your Honor, I'd just like a clarifica tion.

20 Mr. Scardino objected a number of times this morn ing saying0 4 : 4 2

21 this witness is not an expert. Does he now want him to be an

22 expert?

23 MR. SCARDINO: Well, I'm asking him in the same l ine

24 of questions just factually based, just like you did,

25 Mr. Costa.0 4 : 4 2

3 MR. COSTA: Yes.

4 THE COURT: Thank you.

5 MR. SCARDINO: Appreciate that.0 4 : 4 3

6 BY MR. SCARDINO:

7 Q. So, did you not understand, Mr. Amadio, that it was not

8 just Mr. Stanford's idea but, in fact, it was -- and you told

9 the government's investigator this in your report -- that it

10 was Jim Davis' idea and Gil Lopez' idea and Mark Kuhrt's idea0 4 : 4 3

11 to change the way the money was transferred from a letter of

12 credit to a loan? Do you remember talking about that with the

13 IRS agents, that it was Davis, Kuhrt, and Lopez' idea, not

14 Stanford's and the way money was transferred, ins tead of a

15 letter of credit, it was done through loans to sh areholder? Do0 4 : 4 3

16 you remember that?

17 A. I don't quite remember but --

18 Q. Well, I'll find it and show it to you.

19 A. Sure.

20 Q. Here we go. Thank you. On Page 8 of that repo rt, if0 4 : 4 3

1 A. It refreshed my memory, yes.0 4 : 4 4

2 Q. Okay. So, whose idea was it -- well, first of all, does it

3 indicate that there were transfers of money from the bank to

4 Mr. Stanford, the history of that?

5 A. There was transfers, yes.0 4 : 4 4

6 Q. The history of that?

7 A. Yes.

8 Q. And does it indicate that you knew about it and what you

9 told the Internal Revenue Service criminal invest igator?

10 A. There was intercompany transactions between the companies0 4 : 4 4

11 and I knew that there was transfers, yes.

12 Q. You knew about that, right?

13 A. That's correct.

14 Q. You didn't call the cops and say, whoops, they' re breaking

15 the law here with this, did you?0 4 : 4 5

16 A. No, I didn't.

17 Q. No. Because there's absolutely nothing wrong w ith that in

18 a business transaction, is there? Is there?

19 A. There's nothing wrong with a business transacti on --

20 Q. That's my question. Mr. Costa can straighten i t out later0 4 : 4 5

21 if he chooses to.

22 In fact, you know, because you told the

23 government this, that in 2003 and '4, there were lots of

24 intercompany transactions, right?

25 A. That's correct.0 4 : 4 5

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 219: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2511

1 Q. Now, what do you mean by that, "lots of interco mpany0 4 : 4 5

2 transactions"?

3 A. A lot of companies were owing money to each oth er.

4 Q. Owing money to each other or owing money to Mr. Stanford?

5 A. Owing money to each other and to Mr. Stanford.0 4 : 4 5

6 Q. Okay. You're telling this jury that the compan ies were

7 loaning money among themselves?

8 A. Yes, they were.

9 Q. Okay. And you're familiar with that?

10 A. And there was assumption of debt where Mr. Stan ford assumed0 4 : 4 5

11 all that debt from his companies and now those co mpanies, they

12 owe it --

13 Q. I didn't know that. I appreciate you telling m e that. So,

14 the companies were loaning money to each other, r ight?

15 A. Uh-huh.0 4 : 4 6

16 Q. And Stanford was loaning money to the companies ?

17 A. That's right.

18 Q. And Stanford was borrowing money from the bank?

19 A. That is correct.

20 Q. Okay. And these are the "lots of intercompany0 4 : 4 6

21 transactions" that you are talking about here, tr ying to

22 explain it to the government, right?

23 A. That's correct.

24 Q. And you tell the government that in 2004, the m ethod of

25 treating these intercompany transactions --0 4 : 4 6

2512

1 MR. COSTA: I object, that's not in evidence.0 4 : 4 6

2 BY MR. SCARDINO:

3 Q. -- was changed?

4 THE COURT: Was it? Is that in evidence?

5 MR. COSTA: No. It's the -- 0 4 : 4 6

6 THE COURT: Amplify --

7 MR. COSTA: -- investigative report. I'll be hap py to

8 put the whole thing in evidence.

9 THE COURT: What are you talking about?

10 MR. COSTA: The investigative report.0 4 : 4 6

11 THE COURT: What?

12 MR. SCARDINO: He wants me to get the --

13 MR. COSTA: The investigative report.

14 THE COURT: 302?

15 MR. COSTA: Yeah, it's an IRS form but essentiall y0 4 : 4 6

16 like FBI 302.

17 THE COURT: All right. Overrule the objection. Go

18 on.

19 BY MR. SCARDINO:

20 Q. Then you have -- you tell them you have knowled ge about the0 4 : 4 6

21 way these transactions were characterized. Isn't that correct?

22 A. Yes, I did.

23 Q. And when did you start working for the company?

24 A. In 2002, at the end of 2002.

25 Q. So, right after you came to work there, you lea rned about0 4 : 4 6

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 221: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2513

1 these intercompany transactions because it was pa rt of your job0 4 : 4 7

2 to keep track of that?

3 A. Not right after. This was probably a year and a half to

4 two years after.

5 Q. Well, okay. At my age that's right after. Oka y?0 4 : 4 7

6 So, you learned about that and you even knew who

7 the persons were that changed the way those trans actions were

8 conducted. Isn't that right?

9 A. There was a change in the way the funding -- th e

10 shareholder funding was going to be treated, yes.0 4 : 4 7

11 Q. The shareholder funding was the money -- so we' re on the

12 same page, was the money that Stanford borrowed f rom the bank

13 shareholder funding?

14 A. Yes, that's right.

15 Q. Who decided to change the way those transaction s were0 4 : 4 7

16 carried out? Do you remember?

17 A. Yes.

18 Q. Well, you don't need to refresh your memory?

19 A. No.

20 Q. Okay.0 4 : 4 7

21 A. There was conversation in Gil's office, I belie ve Mark was

22 there, too, and also Harry --

23 Q. Mr. Amadio, you don't need to tell us how you k now, just if

24 you know.

25 A. Yes.0 4 : 4 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 222: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2514

1 Q. You know?0 4 : 4 8

2 A. Yes.

3 Q. Okay. And you know -- do you know who the pers ons were

4 that made the decision to change the way those tr ansactions

5 were conducted?0 4 : 4 8

6 A. Yes.

7 Q. Tell us.

8 A. It was Gil Lopez, I believe Harry Failing was t here, and

9 Mark Kuhrt was there, too.

10 Q. Who else?0 4 : 4 8

11 A. In that conversation, that was it for that.

12 Q. Okay. Well, you told the investigator for the IRS that

13 three people decided to change the way it was don e. Do you

14 want to refresh your memory again?

15 A. Davis, Lopez, and Mark Kuhrt.0 4 : 4 8

16 Q. Davis, Lopez, and Kuhrt. Okay. Now, can you t ell us how

17 the transactions were conducted before they decid ed to change

18 it?

19 A. There was a -- this is prior to my time or time when I just

20 started working in the company. I believe there was a line of0 4 : 4 8

21 credit.

22 Q. Explain what is a line of credit.

23 A. It's a debt that the company has of borrowing m oney, has a

24 certain -- what is called a line of credit where they can

25 borrow money from a bank, for instance.0 4 : 4 9

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 223: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2515

1 Q. Okay. So, explain how they were transferring m oney from0 4 : 4 9

2 the bank to Stanford with a line of credit. How did that work?

3 A. Then there was a promissory note drafted where Mr. Stanford

4 was borrowing that money from the bank through th ose promissory

5 notes.0 4 : 4 9

6 Q. Okay. So, was that when they were doing it wit h a line of

7 credit; or did they change it to a promissory not e?

8 A. That was prior in -- as we saw those promissory notes, some

9 of them go back to 2003 and prior to that.

10 Q. Now you got me confused. Did you not tell that IRS agent0 4 : 4 9

11 that the process by which money was transferred e ven back in

12 2003 from the bank to Stanford was with a line of credit?

13 A. There was a line of credit, yes.

14 Q. Right. So, that's the way they did it before, with a line

15 of credit. Then Kuhrt, Davis, and Lopez decided to change the0 4 : 5 0

16 way it was done, right?

17 A. Right. There was not a line of credit anymore.

18 Q. Kuhrt, Lopez, and Davis decided to change the w ay it was

19 done, right?

20 A. That's correct.0 4 : 5 0

21 Q. Not Stanford?

22 A. Yeah, Stanford's name is not there.

23 Q. Yeah, no. So, those -- those were the guys bec ause those

24 were -- those were the guys that kept track of st uff, that was

25 the chief financial officer, right?0 4 : 5 0

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 224: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2516

1 A. Uh-huh.0 4 : 5 0

2 Q. And he is at the top of the list of guys in cha rge of

3 keeping track of the money and investments and th ings like

4 that. That's what they do, right?

5 A. That's correct.0 4 : 5 0

6 Q. Stanford was kind of the -- more of a big pictu re guy,

7 decided what to invest in and that sort of stuff, right?

8 A. Well --

9 Q. Do you know?

10 A. What I know is that Mr. Davis will always menti on that he0 4 : 5 0

11 would share with the shareholder all these inform ation --

12 Q. You know what, I think he still does. But at a ny rate, in

13 this transaction, the people that you remembered back when you

14 had this interview with this special agent and th ey were asking

15 about these transactions, these three guys decide d to change it0 4 : 5 1

16 from a letter of credit to what? Do you remember ? Refresh

17 your memory with that? Read Line 4.

18 A. (Complies).

19 Yeah, to eliminate the letter of credit with a

20 promissory note from the shareholder.0 4 : 5 1

21 Q. Right. So, they changed the method by which mo ney was

22 transferred from the bank to Stanford, right?

23 A. That's correct.

24 Q. No, big secret there, right?

25 A. (No response).0 4 : 5 1

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 225: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2517

1 Q. Anything about that -- did anybody tell you, Oh , if you0 4 : 5 1

2 find this out, you better not tell anybody about it, keep it a

3 secret?

4 A. Not in that particular -- no.

5 Q. No?0 4 : 5 2

6 A. Uh-uh.

7 Q. Okay. Now, the money that was transferred from the bank to

8 Stanford, whether it be by a letter of credit veh icle or

9 whether it be by a promissory note, part of what you were doing

10 was to keep track of that, right?0 4 : 5 2

11 A. After that.

12 Q. After that. Okay.

13 A. Not the promissory note, because that changed a gain.

14 Q. Changed again?

15 A. There was no more promissory notes. Now the tr ansfers now0 4 : 5 2

16 were directly to the affiliated entity and then d istributed as

17 needed to the rest of the affiliated companies.

18 Q. Okay. So, the money quit flowing from the bank through

19 Stanford; it went directly from the bank to the a ffiliates. Is

20 that what you are saying?0 4 : 5 2

21 A. I don't think it ever flowed directly to Mr. St anford on

22 the promissory note. It was going straight to th e entities.

23 And it was -- he signed that promissory note to f und the

24 different entities.

25 Q. You got me confused again. Stanford borrowed m oney from0 4 : 5 3

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 226: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2518

1 Stanford International Bank, Limited. Isn't that correct?0 4 : 5 3

2 A. That's correct.

3 Q. And the amount of the note was -- when you last looked at

4 it, it was like $330 million, wasn't it?

5 A. That's correct.0 4 : 5 3

6 Q. Now, you're not telling this jury that he kept the

7 $330 million, are you?

8 A. No, he didn't kept it -- he didn't keep the mon ey.

9 Q. He didn't keep the money?

10 A. He didn't keep the money.0 4 : 5 3

11 Q. No. And I'm hoping that's not the impression y ou left when

12 you were being examined by the prosecutor, Mr. Co sta, on direct

13 examination. That $330 million that Mr. Stanford borrowed from

14 the bank and all these promissory notes that we'r e talking

15 about went somewhere else, didn't it?0 4 : 5 3

16 A. To his companies.

17 Q. To these companies, right?

18 A. (No response).

19 Q. To these companies, right?

20 A. All these companies that are a hundred percent owned by0 4 : 5 4

21 him, yes.

22 Q. Right?

23 A. Yes.

24 Q. And so, the money flowed through him to these c ompanies to

25 avoid a taxable event. Isn't that correct?0 4 : 5 4

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 227: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2519

1 A. That is correct.0 4 : 5 4

2 Q. Okay. And these companies were mostly startup companies,

3 weren't they?

4 A. Some of them were.

5 Q. Some of them were. And startup companies, like new0 4 : 5 4

6 companies, sometimes need capital to function, do n't they?

7 A. That is correct.

8 Q. And that was one of the reasons why the money w as being

9 transferred from the entity that had the money in to entities

10 that didn't have the money, right?0 4 : 5 4

11 A. That is correct.

12 Q. And the complaint here is that the people that bought the

13 CDs that funded the bank weren't told where the m oney was going

14 and how it was being invested, according to the t heory of the

15 government, right?0 4 : 5 4

16 A. No, sir.

17 Q. Okay. No?

18 A. No.

19 Q. Okay?

20 A. According to the annual report.0 4 : 5 5

21 Q. Yes, sir. But the fact of the matter is that a ll these

22 loans to shareholder that we've been talking abou t was a

23 conduit to fund these companies that are listed i n Government's

24 Exhibit 331C. Isn't that correct?

25 A. That is correct.0 4 : 5 5

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 228: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2520

1 Q. And didn't you tell the jury that there was suc h an0 4 : 5 5

2 imbalance between the assets and the liabilities of these

3 entities that they would never -- these notes wou ld never be

4 paid, right? Did you not tell the jury that?

5 A. The companies were not making enough money to p ay it back.0 4 : 5 5

6 Q. But they were startup companies, weren't they, and they had

7 the opportunity to make money, didn't they?

8 A. They were not startup companies, most of these.

9 Q. You're not an entrepreneur, you said that, righ t? Never

10 started a company before?0 4 : 5 5

11 A. What does that have to do with --

12 Q. Everything, absolutely everything, Mr. Amadio.

13 THE COURT: Okay. Hold it. Just answer the ques tion.

14 Okay?

15 THE WITNESS: I'm not an entrepreneur.0 4 : 5 5

16 BY MR. SCARDINO:

17 Q. Let me back up.

18 THE COURT: Wait. Are you not familiar with that

19 term?

20 THE WITNESS: I'm familiar with that term.0 4 : 5 6

21 THE COURT: Okay. Are you? Are you an entrepren eur?

22 THE WITNESS: No, I'm not.

23 THE COURT: Okay.

24 BY MR. SCARDINO:

25 Q. You're an accountant, right?0 4 : 5 6

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 229: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2521

1 A. Yes, I am.0 4 : 5 6

2 Q. Add up a column of numbers, they're supposed to add up the

3 same way every time, right?

4 A. You know how to form a company, you know how to manage --

5 MR. SCARDINO: Nonresponsive.0 4 : 5 6

6 THE COURT: Sustained.

7 BY MR. SCARDINO:

8 Q. You add up a column of numbers, they add up the same way

9 every time, right? They don't add up the same wa y every time,

10 there's something wrong?0 4 : 5 6

11 A. You're right, you're just describing an aspect of an

12 accountant.

13 Q. And there's no risk in that, is there, Mr. Amad io? When

14 you're adding up a column of numbers, they got to add up the

15 right way or you re-add them to make sure your ar ithmetic is0 4 : 5 6

16 right, right? Is that correct?

17 A. It's -- that is correct, yes.

18 Q. It's your business, Mr. Amadio, that's the line of work

19 that you are in. That's what you are good at, I suppose. You

20 worked there for six years. Nobody fired you. Y ou didn't quit0 4 : 5 6

21 until after the receiver took everything. And yo u've got

22 something on the Internet that you're bragging ab out all the

23 work you did at Stanford. I'll talk about that i n a minute.

24 But you're not a risk taking kind of guy, are you ?

25 A. No.0 4 : 5 7

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 230: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2522

1 Q. No. So that when a guy like Stanford takes ris ks, that's0 4 : 5 7

2 something that it's foreign and uncomfortable to you, isn't it?

3 A. Can you rephrase the question again?

4 Q. You're not a risk taker?

5 A. No, I'm not.0 4 : 5 7

6 Q. Stanford took risks, didn't he, by the way he s tarted up

7 some of these companies, like the airlines?

8 A. (Nodding head).

9 Q. That was risky, wasn't it?

10 A. That was.0 4 : 5 7

11 Q. Yeah. In fact, do you know that they actually ended up

12 selling their interest in the airlines to another airline

13 that's functioning today down there? Did you kno w that?

14 A. Yes, I knew that.

15 Q. Okay. So, to tell the jury that they just went out of0 4 : 5 7

16 business is not correct, was it?

17 A. They didn't continue with the same name.

18 Q. No, they changed names; but they retained an in terest in

19 the airline that is functioning today. Isn't tha t correct?

20 That's the more complete story about what happene d with the0 4 : 5 8

21 airline investment, isn't it?

22 A. I believe so.

23 Q. Yeah, I believe so. So, these businesses that he started

24 out, some of them were better than others. Some of them made

25 money; some of them didn't, right?0 4 : 5 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 231: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2523

1 A. Most of them didn't make money.0 4 : 5 8

2 THE COURT: Most of them did or did not?

3 THE WITNESS: Did not make money.

4 BY MR. SCARDINO:

5 Q. The way you've characterized this operation, Mr . Amadio, is0 4 : 5 8

6 that the loans would never be paid and you've lis ted the value

7 of these companies as a book value -- be patient with me here

8 because I'm trying to understand this, too -- and you have

9 taken the book value to show the value of these c ompanies and

10 how they're not making money and taking the posit ion that the0 4 : 5 8

11 loans to shareholder could never be paid back bec ause the money

12 that he loaned to these companies with that money , they could

13 never pay him back with it, right? These compani es owed

14 Stanford the money he loaned them, right?

15 A. That is correct.0 4 : 5 9

16 Q. Okay. So, your position is they would never be able to

17 repay that because they were startup companies an d they weren't

18 making any money, right?

19 A. Not all of them were startup companies.

20 Q. Okay. Most of them? Some of them?0 4 : 5 9

21 A. Some of them.

22 Q. Okay. And you've listed the value of these com panies and

23 coming to that conclusion, you've listed their bo ok value by

24 doing that, didn't you?

25 A. What do you mean by "their book value"?0 4 : 5 9

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 232: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2524

1 Q. Well, you tell me. You're the accountant. A b ook value is0 4 : 5 9

2 what you paid for it, right?

3 A. Are you talking about the shareholder funding, the book

4 value?

5 Q. No. I'm talking about the -- these affiliates, these0 4 : 5 9

6 companies that took -- that got the money that fl owed from --

7 to Stanford to the companies.

8 A. Okay. You talking about the funds that flowed --

9 Q. The affiliated companies.

10 A. The affiliated companies?0 4 : 5 9

11 Q. Right. You've listed the book value of these c ompanies in

12 coming to your -- forming your opinion about how you thought

13 this was never going to work?

14 A. I based it on the profit and loss statements.

15 Q. Okay. Profit and loss statements aren't always a0 5 : 0 0

16 reflection of what the company might do or the va lue of the

17 company, is it?

18 A. It is related to it because then there's a goin g concern in

19 the company, meaning that if the company continue s to lose

20 money year after year after year, then there's a going concern0 5 : 0 0

21 in that company to continue in that business. So , you might

22 have a lot of assets or have a lot of capital inj ected into

23 that company; but if the company continues to los e money, then

24 the company is not generating any money to pay ba ck.

25 Q. There's two ways to book the value of a company . But help0 5 : 0 0

1 me with this because this has been explained to m e. See if I'm0 5 : 0 0

2 right.

3 There's the book value, which is what you pay for

4 the company. And there's an accounting method by which you

5 enter that into your books to show this is what w as paid for0 5 : 0 1

6 it. That's the book value.

7 And then there's the market value. Isn't that

8 correct? Two ways to enter it, two ways to chara cterize that

9 in accounting terms?

10 A. That is correct, yes.0 5 : 0 1

11 Q. Okay. So, the market value, I believe Mr. Cost a asked you

12 earlier, there's -- there's two ways to character ize -- one way

13 to characterize market is it can either be the -- the same as

14 you paid for it, less than you paid for it, or mo re than you

15 paid for it, right?0 5 : 0 1

16 A. Correct.

17 Q. So, at times when you buy a company, the market value may

18 be lower than what you paid for it; but that's th e nature of

19 making investments, you hope you made a smart inv estment and

20 that the value of the company goes up?0 5 : 0 1

21 A. That's correct.

22 Q. It doesn't necessarily have to do with revenue, does it,

23 how much it's making? There's other things that will influence

24 the market value of the company other than revenu e?

25 A. One of the methods of valuation is revenue so - -0 5 : 0 2

2526

1 Q. One of them is.0 5 : 0 2

2 A. -- you look at the future returns or revenue th at that

3 company can generate --

4 Q. Yes, sir.

5 A. And you can --0 5 : 0 2

6 Q. I like the example of when Tex Schramm bought t he Dallas

7 Texans. It was a losing proposition, turned out to be the most

8 successful sports franchise in the world, right? So, his book

9 value of the Dallas Texans was $10; but the marke t value today

10 is --0 5 : 0 2

11 A. I'm not aware of that. I'm not familiar with i t.

12 Q. Not a sports guy?

13 A. No.

14 Q. Not like the Houston Astros, buy them at a book value and

15 then later they're worth so much more?0 5 : 0 2

16 A. (Shaking head).

17 Q. Nope?

18 A. Don't know much about it.

19 Q. Don't know much about it?

20 A. No.0 5 : 0 2

21 Q. But there's companies where you can take the ma rket value

22 to make a valuation to determine the value of the asset, right?

23 A. Sure.

24 Q. And you have taken the book value of all of the se companies

25 in coming to that conclusion, didn't you?0 5 : 0 2

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 235: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2527

1 A. Coming to what conclusion?0 5 : 0 3

2 Q. That there was no way these companies would eve r be able to

3 pay Mr. Stanford back the money he loaned.

4 A. I base it on the conclusion or the fact that in the six

5 years that I worked there, I never seen any of th ese companies0 5 : 0 3

6 pay back or pay down what's up on the screen.

7 Q. Yes, sir. These companies -- some of these com panies were

8 acquired before you came there, right?

9 A. Yes, they were.

10 Q. In fact, most of the companies were acquired be fore you0 5 : 0 3

11 came there?

12 A. I will say part of them, yes.

13 Q. Part of them. And some of them were acquired w hile you

14 were there?

15 A. That's correct.0 5 : 0 3

16 Q. And the state of the economy and the world and the United

17 States back in the late Nineties and the early 20 00s, do you

18 remember what it was like?

19 A. Yes. I mean --

20 Q. You remember a booming economy where everybody was making0 5 : 0 3

21 scads of money and real estate values were skyroc keting back

22 then? Do you remember that?

23 A. Yeah, I do remember.

24 Q. Yeah. And what happened in about 2007? Do you remember

25 the state of the economy then?0 5 : 0 4

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 236: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2528

1 A. Yep.0 5 : 0 4

2 Q. Okay. Started heading south, didn't it?

3 A. That's correct.

4 Q. Do you remember what happened at the end of 200 8?

5 A. Uh-huh.0 5 : 0 4

6 Q. Do you want to share that with the jury? What happened?

7 A. The economy crashed basically.

8 Q. Yeah. And you're an accountant. It was the wo rst economy

9 we've had since the Great Depression, wasn't it?

10 A. That's right.0 5 : 0 4

11 Q. So, somebody that's an entrepreneur that invest s in

12 businesses might have had a good idea about somet hing that

13 would be very profitable and make money and would be a heck of

14 a good investment and you should put capital in i t when you buy

15 it in the late Nineties and early 2000s, right?0 5 : 0 4

16 A. (No response).

17 Q. Right?

18 A. Uh-huh.

19 Q. And a lot of clever people didn't see this cras h coming and

20 they lost money in 2007, '8, and '9, didn't they?0 5 : 0 4

21 A. That's correct.

22 Q. Did you take that into consideration in decidin g what was

23 going on with the Stanford empire?

24 A. What I took in consideration of looking at all these

25 entities going back to 2003 all the way through 2 008, what I0 5 : 0 4

Page 237: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2529

1 saw was a lot of companies that were not making a ny profit at0 5 : 0 5

2 all, during good times, just like you said, and, of course,

3 during the bad times, things got worse. But none of these

4 companies were really producing the money to real ly go ahead

5 and pay back what we see here on the screen that was borrowed,0 5 : 0 5

6 even in good times.

7 Q. You kept track of the success of all these affi liated

8 entities? You did that?

9 A. Our Houston office was in charge to consolidate --

10 Q. I didn't ask you that. Did you keep track of t he success0 5 : 0 5

11 or failure of all these affiliated entities?

12 A. To answer your question, sir, we kept all of th e

13 financials --

14 Q. I didn't ask you that. I asked you if you kept track of

15 the success or failure of all of these affiliated entities.0 5 : 0 6

16 Did you, yes or no?

17 A. What do you mean by "success"?

18 Q. Well, you were saying -- you told the jury that none of

19 them were making any money, they were all a failu re, and there

20 was no way it was going to work?0 5 : 0 6

21 A. You have to weigh and measure -- you have to me asure that.

22 Q. Did you keep track of the information of these companies

23 and how they were being run, who their managers w ere, who their

24 employees were, what their sources of supplies we re, what

25 their -- who their customer base was? Did you ke ep track of0 5 : 0 6

Page 238: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2530

1 all of that?0 5 : 0 6

2 A. No, I didn't have --

3 Q. Marketing, did you follow-up market studies to see shifts

4 in markets for these companies to do projections about what

5 their costs might be in the future for the produc t they had to0 5 : 0 6

6 have in order to -- if they were selling a produc t or buying a

7 product? Did you keep track of anything like tha t?

8 A. No, I didn't keep track --

9 Q. Did you keep track of their managers --

10 THE COURT: Hold it. Let him finish. Slow down,0 5 : 0 6

11 please. Go right ahead.

12 THE WITNESS: No, I didn't keep track of markets.

13 BY MR. SCARDINO:

14 Q. The answer is no. Okay. Let's talk about cons olidation.

15 You were there when there was an effort to consol idate the0 5 : 0 7

16 companies, weren't you?

17 A. Yes.

18 Q. You testified on direct examination that you th ought the

19 consolidation effort started towards the end of 2 008.

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 239: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2531

1 got on the exhibit up here, Government's Exhibit 331C?0 5 : 0 8

2 A. That is correct.

3 Q. And would it include other entities other than these

4 affiliated entities?

5 A. I believe that those were all the ones in part of the0 5 : 0 8

6 consolidation.

7 Q. Would that include Stanford Venture Capital Gro up?

8 A. That will include Stanford Venture Capital.

9 Q. Would that include Stanford Broker/Dealer?

10 A. That would include the broker/dealer as well.0 5 : 0 8

11 Q. Would that include just everything that's -- al l the

12 companies that Stanford owned?

13 A. That is correct.

14 Q. Okay. Now, let's talk about what they are. Wh at was the

15 broker/dealer? Do you remember what that was?0 5 : 0 8

16 A. The Stanford Group Company.

17 Q. Yes, sir. And what did they do?

18 A. The broker/dealer will basically have clients a nd offer

19 different investment products.

20 Q. Okay. So, they were -- the broker/dealers were the people0 5 : 0 9

21 that actually would sell a financial product?

22 A. They would sell financial products, that's righ t.

23 Q. Okay. And how about the Stanford Venture Capit al, what was

24 that?

25 A. That was a private equity company.0 5 : 0 9

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 240: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2532

1 Q. Okay. And what did they do?0 5 : 0 9

2 A. The capital markets people -- and that's privat e equity

3 company -- will look for startup companies, compa nies with

4 potential to grow and look for those companies an d either lend

5 money to those companies.0 5 : 0 9

6 Q. I mean, like you would -- you would find money that people

7 would want to use to invest in some venture, so t hey would put

8 up capital, therefore, you get the "Venture Capit al" title,

9 right?

10 A. That's correct, it's a private equity.0 5 : 0 9

11 Q. So, Stanford had a company where he employed pe ople that

12 would use Stanford money or raise outside money t o invest in

13 some enterprise that looked like it might be prof itable, right?

14 A. That's correct.

15 Q. Okay. That was different from these affiliated companies0 5 : 1 0

16 we have listed here in this exhibit, wasn't it?

17 A. It's listed on this exhibit; but, yes, it's dif ferent in --

18 Q. Maybe -- yeah.

19 A. Yes.

20 Q. Some of the investments that the Venture Capita l group0 5 : 1 0

21 would make would not be specifically listed in th ese affiliated

22 companies? Like, for example, if they invested i n a hotel here

23 in Houston?

24 A. Right, that's correct.

25 Q. And you knew they invested in a hotel here in H ouston,0 5 : 1 0

1 right?0 5 : 1 0

2 A. Yes, I do recall.

3 Q. Okay. Were you familiar with that -- the Hotel Sorella

4 investment that they made?

5 A. Don't have a whole lot of details.0 5 : 1 0

6 Q. Well, I mean, you were -- kept track of the -- you said of

7 the investments. Did you realize that they put $ 16 million

8 into a hotel here out in Town & Country called Ho tel Sorella?

9 A. Yes, I recall.

10 Q. You remember that?0 5 : 1 0

11 A. Uh-huh, I think so.

12 Q. Do you remember what happened to that investmen t?

13 A. Don't know. Don't remember.

14 Q. Don't know? Okay. But it was something that t here was

15 some due diligence or research done and money was invested in0 5 : 1 1

16 that and other enterprises and that was what that was all

17 about. Was that successful? Was that a successf ul part of the

18 Stanford companies?

19 A. I would not know that.

20 Q. No idea, got no clue whether that made money or lost money,0 5 : 1 1

21 do you?

22 A. On that particular deal, no, I don't.

23 Q. No. I'm talking about the Stanford Venture Cap ital. And I

24 don't remember the acronym of what they call the company that

25 would raise this money to make the investments bu t --0 5 : 1 1

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 242: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2534

1 A. What do -- what I do know about Stanford Ventur e Capital is0 5 : 1 1

2 that most of the promissory notes that we had wit h convertible

3 stocks, they were not paying back and these compa nies were not

4 able to pay those promissory notes.

5 Q. Okay. Let's talk about that with the consolida tion0 5 : 1 1

6 project. Now, what was the consolidation project ? Was it --

7 what? Say it again.

8 A. It was a way to have a big picture of the finan cial

9 position of all of the Stanford affiliated compan ies combined

10 into a consolidated financial.0 5 : 1 2

11 Q. Why did there need to be a big picture?

12 A. That way you can truly see if as a whole, if af ter you see

13 the companies that are losing money and the compa nies that --

14 some of the companies that were reporting revenue such as the

15 bank, if you combine everything, you can get a bi g picture if0 5 : 1 2

16 all of your entities combined, lost and gains, if you have

17 either a positive loss or if you have a -- or if you have a

18 gain.

19 Q. Okay. So --

20 A. A profit.0 5 : 1 2

21 Q. Was the consolidation something that was design ed to

22 perpetuate some kind of fraud?

23 A. Not -- no, huh-uh.

24 Q. And whose idea was it to consolidate all these companies?

25 A. When this started towards the end of the idea w as -- came0 5 : 1 3

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 243: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2535

1 from Gil Lopez, Mark Kuhrt. We started talking c onsolidating0 5 : 1 3

2 all the companies.

3 Q. Okay. These were some of the guys that were in charge of

4 the accounting aspects of the company that would keep track of

5 where the money was and where the assets were, ri ght?0 5 : 1 3

6 A. That's correct.

7 Q. These were the guys that were right under Jim D avis?

8 A. That's correct.

9 Q. So, the consolidation idea came from them and n ot from

10 Davis?0 5 : 1 3

11 A. I'm sure Davis was also informed on that.

12 Q. Okay. Not from Stanford?

13 A. I don't know. I don't know if that's --

14 Q. So, Kuhrt and Lopez wanted to consolidate all t he companies

15 so that there would be a better picture of what w as going on.0 5 : 1 3

16 Is that right?

17 A. The consolidation started for that --

18 Q. Okay.

19 A. -- for that reason.

20 Q. And what involvement did you have with that?0 5 : 1 4

21 A. The involvement of our accounting team was to t ake all of

22 the financial statement of each and one of these entities and

23 combine them, consolidate them. It's a complex a nd long

24 process.

25 Q. Okay. Was it a good idea?0 5 : 1 4

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 244: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2536

1 A. I think for a common ownership, one sole owners hip in this0 5 : 1 4

2 case for this type of structure, yes, it is -- it is a good way

3 of getting a big picture of -- combine all your c ompanies, see

4 how you're really doing.

5 Q. So, Kuhrt and Lopez were trying to do something that was --0 5 : 1 4

6 made good sense, good business and accounting sen se?

7 A. Yeah, it was -- it was a management tool, manag ement report

8 to better report, in a combined consolidated way, all of the

9 financials.

10 Q. Okay. And you were part of -- you were made pa rt of the0 5 : 1 4

11 consolidation effort, were you not?

12 A. Yes, sir.

13 Q. And then -- and in that process, you learned ab out that

14 Stanford was trying to put capital back into the bank, right?

15 A. That is correct, yes.0 5 : 1 5

16 Q. Okay. In fact, the way he was trying to put ca pital back

17 in the bank -- correct me if I'm wrong -- was by transferring

18 stock that owned property on the island of Antigu a, right?

19 A. No. I mean, I don't know about stocks.

20 Q. All right. What's your understanding of how he tried to0 5 : 1 5

21 recapitalize the bank?

22 A. By transferring assets to the bank.

23 Q. Okay. Assets, what are assets? Does that cons ist of what?

24 Stocks, bonds, is that not --

25 A. Real estate.0 5 : 1 5

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 245: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2537

1 Q. Real estate?0 5 : 1 5

2 A. Yes.

3 Q. Okay. But assets can be stocks, bonds. In thi s case it

4 was real estate?

5 A. Yes, assets can be stocks and bonds.0 5 : 1 5

6 Q. And the real estate was owned by a company that had issues

7 of -- shares of stock; and the stock is what was used to try to

8 capitalize -- or to capitalize the bank, right? That was the

9 idea.

10 A. I did not know that.0 5 : 1 6

11 Q. Okay. You were preparing schedules that reflec ted -- in

12 preparing the consolidation schedule, you were in formed that

13 you had left off a 541 million-dollar capital inf usion. Isn't

14 that correct?

15 A. That is correct, yes.0 5 : 1 6

16 Q. And who told you that?

17 A. It was Mark Kuhrt told me that.

18 Q. And what did you do when he informed you of tha t?

19 A. I had mentioned to him that I didn't know -- I didn't have

20 information of that.0 5 : 1 6

21 Q. Okay. And now you do. Now he told you that th is had been

22 a capital infusion, and he asked you to change th e schedule

23 when you were preparing your consolidation report . Is that

24 right?

25 A. We -- yes. We updated -- that's correct, after that was0 5 : 1 7

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 246: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2538

1 informed, I mentioned to him that the accountant did not know0 5 : 1 7

2 about that and that's why it was left off and the n we corrected

3 the report.

4 Q. So, and did you not learn that what they were t rying to do

5 was take an asset that had a book value of a fixe d amount of0 5 : 1 7

6 money -- Mr. Costa had talked to you about this o n direct

7 examination -- of a piece of property that was pu rchased for

8 60 something million dollars and it ended up bein g valuated at

9 over $3 billion and we talked about a 5,000-dolla r increase in

10 the asset -- 5,000 percent increase in the asset. Do you0 5 : 1 7

11 remember that?

12 A. I do remember that.

13 Q. Okay. And is that what they were doing with th is -- this

14 capital infusion into the bank with the stocks th at owned the

15 real estate?0 5 : 1 8

16 A. Well, now that we know what's related --

17 Q. Yes, sir.

18 A. -- I believe so, yes.

19 Q. That was not a secret, was it? Nobody was tryi ng to keep

20 that secret, were they?0 5 : 1 8

21 A. About that infusion?

22 Q. Yes, sir.

23 A. No, that was not a secret. That was in an e-ma il.

2 Q. Might not have been within the loop of somethin g that you

3 would necessarily need to know. Isn't that corre ct?

5 Q. And this was at a period of time when it was -- people were0 5 : 1 8

11 Q. Okay. And the people were wanting their money out of the

12 bank because the economy was crashing, wasn't it?

13 A. Yeah, economy was real bad.

14 Q. Big banks were failing, weren't they?

17 bailed out, didn't they?

18 A. They did, yes.

20 bail out, did he? He was on the island of Antigu a, right?0 5 : 1 9

6 and invest it somewhere and it makes them profita ble. That's

7 why bankers all live in River Oaks, right?

8 A. (No response).

9 Q. That's the way banks --

10 THE COURT: Some lawyers I know live in River Oak s,0 5 : 2 3

11 too. I don't know of any judges that live in Riv er Oaks.

12 MR. COSTA: Or prosecutors.

13 THE COURT: Well, some do but may not be all thei r

14 funds.

15 MR. SCARDINO: I'll leave that alone.0 5 : 2 3

16 THE COURT: They may have a spouse that assists.

17 Okay?

18 BY MR. SCARDINO:

19 Q. So that the bank takes the money and they hopef ully invest

20 it in something that makes more than they have to pay the0 5 : 2 3

21 person that purchased the CD and that's the sprea d?

22 A. That is correct, yes.

23 Q. Okay. And the person that buys the CD doesn't have a thing

24 to say about where the bank invests the money, do they, as a

25 rule?0 5 : 2 4

2542

1 A. They don't have anything to say, right.0 5 : 2 4

2 Q. Like shareholders got a lot to say about how th e company is

3 run and how the company invests but not a CD hold er?

4 A. Right. That's correct, yes.

5 Q. Okay. So, Stanford sold CDs; and when the econ omy was0 5 : 2 4

6 crashing, the CD holders wanted their money back because they

7 were afraid they would lose it?

8 A. That's correct, yes.

9 Q. Okay. In fact, some of the people that wanted their money

10 back early -- say if you had a six-month CD and o nly three0 5 : 2 4

11 months had gone in, they really didn't have a rig ht to have

12 their CD back, did they, under the terms of the c ontract?

13 A. I would not know the terms of the contract, but normally

14 there's penalties.

15 Q. Let's just say there's -- the terms of the cont ract, say,0 5 : 2 4

16 for a six-month CD, if you -- if it's an early wi thdrawal,

17 there's some penalty, you either don't get your i nterest or you

18 don't get your interest plus some penalty, right?

19 A. That's correct, yes.

20 Q. Not uncommon?0 5 : 2 4

21 A. That is correct, yes.

22 Q. And you're familiar, aren't you, Mr. Amadio, th at during

23 that period of time that a lot of -- most of the people that

24 had Certificates of Deposit with Mr. Stanford's b ank wanted

25 their money back even early, right?0 5 : 2 5

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 251: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2543

1 A. That's what I heard, yes.0 5 : 2 5

2 Q. Yeah. Well, I mean, you worked there and you w ere an

3 accountant there, right?

4 A. I was an accountant but not for the bank.

5 Q. Yeah. Okay. But you knew that he paid all tho se demands0 5 : 2 5

6 for the money, don't you?

7 A. I would not know that.

8 Q. Don't know that?

9 A. No, I don't know that.

10 Q. Okay. You haven't learned that since you've ha d all your0 5 : 2 5

11 interviews with the government and all your proff ers and

12 debriefings, you haven't learned that Stanford pa id all those

13 demands from these people, even early withdrawals ?

14 A. During the time of the 2008 crash?

15 Q. All the way in to the time until -- yes, sir, u ntil January0 5 : 2 5

16 of 2009.

17 A. No, I was not --

18 Q. Not aware?

19 A. -- aware of --

20 Q. Okay. Well, certainly you were aware that beca use he paid0 5 : 2 5

21 all these demands for the money that it was -- it put a crunch

22 on the bank financially. They needed some capita l, didn't

23 they?

24 A. I'm sure they did.

25 Q. Okay. And so, the whole idea behind this infus ion --0 5 : 2 6

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 252: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2544

1 that's what we've been talking about -- was for M r. Stanford to0 5 : 2 6

2 put capital into the bank so they could meet thei r financial

3 requirements. Isn't that right?

4 A. I don't know that information but --

5 Q. Well, did you learn when you were putting all t his0 5 : 2 6

6 information together in this consolidation effort that part of

7 what Mr. Stanford had used to do this was the int erest that he

8 had in the property in Antigua?

9 A. I did not know that.

10 Q. Okay. Well, this is what Mr. Costa was asking you about0 5 : 2 6

11 earlier about the piece of property or an investm ent that you

12 paid some 60 something million dollars for and th at -- he

13 didn't say how long, but a number of years later, 10 years

14 later, 12 years later, the asset is worth over $3 billion,

15 5,000 --0 5 : 2 6

16 MR. COSTA: Object to facts not in evidence about

17 10 years and, in fact, that's contrary to when it was bought.

18 MR. SCARDINO: Over a period of time it is not

19 contrary to when it was bought but --

20 MR. COSTA: All right. The jury will see the evi dence0 5 : 2 7

21 ultimately when that was bought.

22 MR. SCARDINO: The jury will see the evidence --

23 THE COURT: Absolutely. Let's go.

24 BY MR. SCARDINO:

25 Q. Are you familiar with the efforts Mr. Stanford made in0 5 : 2 7

1 dealing with the Island of Antigua to acquire ass ets on that0 5 : 2 7

2 island?

3 A. No, I don't know.

4 Q. And you don't know about the -- the government didn't talk

5 to you about -- in their debriefing and their pro ffer with you0 5 : 2 7

6 about how he had gotten permits and had purchased property and

7 made agreements with the island to acquire all th is property

8 for a particular goal that he had in mind?

9 A. Don't recall ever talking about that with the g overnment.

10 Q. Do you remember telling the investigator when - - back in0 5 : 2 7

11 May of 2010 that you were familiar with Mr. Stanf ord's vision?

12 A. Yes, on that -- in that case, yes -- on that, y es.

13 Q. Okay. Do you remember telling what that vision was?

14 A. Vision was to build resorts, high-end resorts, luxurious

15 resorts.0 5 : 2 8

16 Q. Where?

17 A. In the Caribbean islands.

18 Q. Okay. So, if he was in the effort of -- in the process of

19 doing that, are you familiar with the fact that h e was building

20 an airport and a marina? Do you know that?0 5 : 2 8

21 A. Aware of the airport.

22 Q. On the island of Antigua, a fixed based operati on, FBO, for

23 private use? You understand that FBO, fixed base operations,

24 for private aircraft?

25 A. Uh-huh.0 5 : 2 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 254: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2546

1 Q. You know that?0 5 : 2 8

2 A. Yes.

3 Q. Okay. You know he was -- in fact, had built a hangar. Did

4 you see the hangar that he built?

5 A. In Antigua, no, I didn't --0 5 : 2 8

6 Q. How about the marina, did you see that?

7 A. No, I didn't see the marina.

8 Q. Okay. How about the desalination plant he buil t, did you

9 see that?

10 A. No, I didn't see that either.0 5 : 2 9

11 Q. Okay. How about the property that he acquired, did you see

12 any of that?

13 A. Can I ask you a question?

14 Q. No. How about the -- do you need to take a bre ak?

15 A. No, I don't need a break. Are you talking abou t the0 5 : 2 9

16 desalinization for Maiden Island?

17 Q. Yes.

18 A. I was aware of that, yes.

19 Q. Okay.

20 A. Small little island.0 5 : 2 9

21 Q. And the money that he spent on architecture fee s and

22 information technology that he was putting in pla ce to develop

23 this dream that he was talking to you about?

24 A. I did see some of that money going towards that --

25 Q. Mr. Amadio, then, the -- the money that was spe nt on a0 5 : 2 9

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 255: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2547

1 piece of land was $6 and you spent all this time and money0 5 : 2 9

2 developing the land by putting an infrastructure in, by doing

3 architectural work, by putting in marinas and air ports and

4 desalination plants, wouldn't that increase the v alue of the

5 land?0 5 : 2 9

6 A. I would have no knowledge of how much it will i ncrease --

7 Q. Wouldn't whatever that increased value be then the market

8 price or market value of the land as opposed to t he book value

9 of the land?

10 MR. COSTA: May I ask for a clarification on what land0 5 : 3 0

11 he's talking about?

12 THE COURT: Okay.

13 MR. COSTA: The land that they valued at $2.3 bil lion

14 or all this other land where airports and other t hings were?

15 THE COURT: Okay. If you just clarify, please, s ir.0 5 : 3 0

16 BY MR. SCARDINO:

17 Q. Well, actually, just in general, in a hypotheti cal

18 question, when we're talking about accounting ter ms, the

19 difference between book value and market value. That's the

20 point I'm trying to make. Stanford paid so much money for a0 5 : 3 0

21 piece of land, spent all this time and money impr oving it, so

22 then the market value is -- should be hopefully m uch more?

23 A. That is correct.

24 Q. Okay. So, something as small as an island in t he Caribbean

25 and the West Indies where they have absolutely pe rfect beaches0 5 : 3 0

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 256: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2548

1 and beautiful water and there's very few of them, would it not0 5 : 3 0

2 be reasonable to expect that the market value of that could

3 zoom under the right circumstances, right?

4 A. It could -- yes, the price could increase.

5 Q. Yes. Especially if it's to cater to billionair es and not,0 5 : 3 0

6 you know, people like me that can't afford to pay attention,

7 right? If your market is that high, it's possibl e that the

8 market value could be -- skyrocket above the book value?

9 A. 5,000 percent?

10 Q. Yeah, 5,000 percent.0 5 : 3 1

11 A. It seems excessive.

12 Q. It seems excessive. But you're not a businessm an and not

13 an entrepreneur, are you?

14 A. No, I'm not.

15 Q. All right. But you are here testifying for the government,0 5 : 3 1

16 aren't you?

17 A. I'm testifying, yes.

18 Q. So, this was what Mr. Stanford was using -- his interest in

19 this island property was what he was making an at tempt to use

20 to capitalize his bank, was it not?0 5 : 3 1

21 A. Yes.

22 MR. SCARDINO: Your Honor, I'm getting so much

23 instruction up here, I might ask if I can retire and put on a

24 uniform.

25 I had a point to make here. Let's see. Oh, here0 5 : 3 2

1 we go.0 5 : 3 2

2 BY MR. SCARDINO:

3 Q. Did you not tell the investigator that -- and I 'm sorry, I

4 digress and jump all the way back to talking abou t that little

5 device down there. But when you were talking to that Internal0 5 : 3 2

6 Revenue Service agent about that doohickey down t here --

7 whatever it's called, that little silver thing do wn there, we

8 store information on it --

9 THE COURT: Football.

10 MR. SCARDINO: Well, it's called something else.0 5 : 3 3

11 MR. COSTA: An external hard drive.

12 MR. SCARDINO: Right, external hard drive. Thank you.

13 BY MR. SCARDINO:

14 Q. -- that there wasn't anything secret about it? Do you

15 remember telling him that?0 5 : 3 3

16 A. That there was nothing secret about it?

17 Q. Nothing secret on it.

18 A. I don't recall saying that.

19 Q. Okay. I'll find it.

20 All right. I'll come back to that. Let's talk a0 5 : 3 3

21 minute about Mr. Hewlett. Do you remember talkin g about him on

22 direct examination?

1 bank and other affiliated entities down in Antigu a.0 5 : 3 4

2 Q. Yes, sir. What is an external auditor?

3 A. External auditor, they're not employees of the companies

4 and what they do is provide an independent review and

5 evaluation of the financials and the integrity of the0 5 : 3 4

6 information presented on those financials.

7 Q. Okay. And he was the external auditor for -- f or what?

8 A. For Stanford International Bank as well as othe r Antiguan

11 companies?

12 A. That's correct.

13 Q. Other Antiguan companies that were owned by Mr. Stanford?

14 A. Yes, sir.

15 Q. Okay. Do you know how many companies that he w as the --0 5 : 3 4

16 that he functioned as the external auditor?

17 A. I believe about five or six.

18 Q. You believe?

19 A. That I can remember, yes.

20 Q. Okay. So, could there have been more?0 5 : 3 5

21 A. Not that I was aware.

22 Q. Not that you're aware of; but there could have been more,

23 right?

24 A. There was many other Antiguan companies as well , yes.

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 259: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2551

1 what relationship Allen Stanford or Jim Davis had with0 5 : 3 5

2 Mr. Hewlett and their requests for him to act as an external

3 auditor for various companies, do you?

4 A. No, I don't have that --

5 Q. You have no idea whether Stanford and Davis or anybody else0 5 : 3 5

6 in the Stanford empire had Mr. Hewlett doing othe r services for

7 them or doing external audits for any other compa nies, do you?

8 A. No, I don't have that.

9 Q. No. There were over a hundred companies that M r. Stanford

10 owned, wasn't there?0 5 : 3 5

11 A. In Antigua?

12 Q. No, just in general.

13 A. In general, yes.

14 Q. Okay. And you have no idea whether or not -- w hat services

15 Hewlett was providing for Stanford and/or Davis, do you?0 5 : 3 5

16 A. The only information I know?

17 Q. Yes, sir, that -- you're testifying about only what you

18 know, right?

19 A. What I knew and what was allocated as his fees.

20 Q. When Mr. Costa asked you about money that was p aid to0 5 : 3 6

21 Mr. Hewlett from a Swiss bank account, you have a bsolutely no

22 idea what that money was for, do you?

23 A. No, I don't.

24 Q. The inference is it was a bribe, though, isn't it?

25 A. That's correct, yes.0 5 : 3 6

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 260: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2552

1 Q. Okay. And that Mr. Hewlett was -- wasn't perfo rming his0 5 : 3 6

2 service as an external auditor because he was get ting paid this

3 money, extra money from the Swiss account. In fa ct, you think

4 he was being paid too much money with the money h e was being

5 paid out of the bank, right?0 5 : 3 6

6 A. That's correct, yes.

7 Q. Okay. That's too many questions there at once. But I

8 mean, Mr. Amadio, do you have any idea what a pro per fee would

9 be for the services that Mr. Hewlett performed fo r the bank?

10 Have you ever acted as an external auditor before ?0 5 : 3 6

11 A. No. But I did work with external auditors and I received

12 bills and the fact is that the $25,000 that we sa w on the

13 screen and how that was allocated through those A ntiguan

14 companies -- and there were not a hundred. There were just a

15 handful of companies.0 5 : 3 7

16 Q. Okay.

17 A. Based on that information that I knew is what s eemed to be

18 excessive if you add also, as well, what was not reported in

19 the books. And when I inquired about that bank a ccount, I was

20 told that that was a Mr. Stanford account and to leave it0 5 : 3 7

21 alone.

22 Q. None of your business, right?

23 A. None of my business, yes.

24 Q. I mean, do you know if Mr. Stanford was generou s in the way

25 he paid his people? Was he generous in the way h e paid you?0 5 : 3 7

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 261: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2553

1 A. If he was generous in the way he paid me?0 5 : 3 7

2 Q. Yes, sir.

3 A. I believe he paid me according to market.

4 Q. Okay. Do you know how about -- did he hire the best of the

5 best people as a rule?0 5 : 3 7

6 A. That's what he will say, yes.

7 Q. He hired you, didn't he?

8 A. He hired me, yes.

9 Q. Yeah, you worked for him. So, you've never wor ked as an

10 external auditor, right?0 5 : 3 8

11 A. I work with external auditor but not as an exte rnal

12 auditor.

13 Q. So, have you ever negotiated a fee for an exter nal auditor

14 to do work for a company to act as an external au ditor?

15 A. Yes, I have.0 5 : 3 8

16 Q. Okay. You have negotiated fees for people?

17 A. Yes, I have.

18 Q. Tell us who it was.

19 A. With external auditors performing audits to a c ompany, yes.

20 Q. You've negotiated the external auditor's fee?0 5 : 3 8

21 A. They have a fee and we talked about how many ho urs it was

22 going to take and how much is that going to cost. So, they

23 give you -- prior to performing the audit, they g ive you the

24 fee. Yes, you negotiate that.

25 Q. And so, how much -- do you know the value of th e companies0 5 : 3 8

Page 262: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2554

1 that Mr. Hewlett was performing the service -- wa sn't he0 5 : 3 8

2 dealing with, like, $9 billion?

3 A. If you are considering SIBL with the other enti ties, is

4 that what you're referring to, sir?

5 Q. Yes, sir, I am.0 5 : 3 9

6 A. That will be -- yes, adding those assets, yes.

7 Q. So, he was dealing with a big number with a num ber of

8 companies, wasn't he?

9 A. Yes.

10 Q. Okay. And the money that he was paid was paid in a manner0 5 : 3 9

11 that was easily accessible and traceable, wasn't it?

12 A. Not necessarily.

13 Q. Well, I mean, there were checks written. I mea n, he was

14 being paid $18,000 a month. There was a memo, e- mails going

15 around saying we're going to boost his salary up to $25,000 a0 5 : 3 9

16 month, right?

17 A. That was what was in the books, yes.

18 Q. Yes, sir. And you saw checks that were written for that

19 amount, did you not?

20 A. Wire transfers, that's correct.0 5 : 3 9

21 Q. Okay. And then Mr. Costa showed you that he wa s being paid

22 out of a Swiss account that was Mr. Stanford's ac count. Is

23 that correct?

24 A. Under the name of a company, yes.

25 Q. Yes, sir, under the name of a company. And how was that0 5 : 3 9

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 263: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2555

1 money transferred from the account to Mr. Hewlett ?0 5 : 3 9

2 A. I mean, it was wire transferred from --

3 Q. Wire transfer, that's a traceable event, right?

4 A. Yes, it is traceable.

5 Q. Okay. So, if it was a bribe, do you think that that --0 5 : 4 0

6 would it be indicative of somebody getting a brib e rather than

7 paying it with currency?

8 A. I don't know how to answer that question becaus e I --

9 Q. Fair enough. If you don't know how to answer i t, don't

10 answer it. But you haven't had -- you didn't tal k to0 5 : 4 0

11 Mr. Hewlett about it, did you?

12 A. No.

13 Q. Okay. Do you know Mr. Hewlett is deceased?

14 A. Yes, I know.

15 Q. Okay. Have you discussed this with anybody? H ave you0 5 : 4 0

16 talked to anybody about whether or not this was a bribe, you

17 personally?

18 A. No. Because I didn't know about that.

19 Q. Okay. Let me visit with you just a minute abou t what he

20 said on direct about how the money came in to the affiliated0 5 : 4 0

21 companies, and you said that all the money -- tha t you knew

22 that all the money that was transferred into the affiliated

23 entities or companies came from the bank. Do you remember

24 that?

25 A. Yes, sir.0 5 : 4 1

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 264: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2556

1 Q. Okay. And you -- are you telling this jury tha t you have0 5 : 4 1

2 personal knowledge of that?

3 A. I do have personal knowledge of that.

4 Q. Okay. Mr. Amadio, isn't it a fact that all the monies that

5 were earned from the Stanford entities which -- w hether or not0 5 : 4 1

6 it was from the bank or from any of the other ent ities, all

7 went into the treasury, Stanford treasury?

8 A. (No response).

9 Q. Weren't all monies deposited into the treasury?

10 A. For the Stanford affiliated companies?0 5 : 4 1

11 Q. For all of them. Isn't that the way the busine sses were

12 set up, that they all came -- all the money came to the

13 treasury from all these different sources? Do yo u not know

14 that?

15 A. Yes, I do know that.0 5 : 4 2

16 Q. Okay. So, if the monies came out of the treasu ry and you

17 don't know where -- what money came in, you weren 't tasked with

18 keeping up with that, were you?

19 A. When you say money coming in, from where?

20 Q. From whatever sources that generated income. W asn't it0 5 : 4 2

21 Maldonado the -- wasn't she the treasurer?

22 A. That's correct, yes.

23 Q. Okay. So, what she was charged with was taking the money

24 in -- that's the way all businesses work -- and s he took it in

25 from whatever source there was money generated?0 5 : 4 2

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 265: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2557

1 A. Correct.0 5 : 4 2

2 Q. And then she was told where money needed to go and where to

3 send it after that. Isn't that how that's set up , like all

4 businesses?

5 A. Yes, the money was coming out of the treasury f rom SIBL0 5 : 4 2

6 bank accounts to affiliated companies.

7 Q. Okay. So, the money was coming out of treasury ?

8 A. Was coming out of SIBL.

9 Q. Not -- not Mrs. Maldonado, coming directly out of SIBL?

10 A. Maldonado is a treasury manager, that the only thing they0 5 : 4 3

11 do is just direct where the money -- from a compu ter or

12 requesting that to be funded, but the money that shows up on

13 the treasury reports states clearly that it was S IBL bank

14 account that the money was coming from to the aff iliated

15 companies.0 5 : 4 3

16 Q. Jumping back to the consolidation, I didn't fin ish talking

17 to you about that. Did you not learn, Mr. Amadio , that one of

18 the ways that the loan to shareholder was to be r etired was in

19 two different ways: One was that the money that he had loaned

20 to the affiliates was an amount that was carried on the books0 5 : 4 3

21 and he was owed that money. Isn't that correct?

22 A. He owed -- yes, that's correct.

23 Q. In fact, you made mention to it in your intervi ew with the

24 special agent with the IRS of how that process wo rked, that he

25 owed -- he owed the bank money that he had borrow ed from the0 5 : 4 4

1 bank and the affiliates owed him money that he ha d taken from0 5 : 4 4

2 the bank and loaned to them, right?

3 A. And they -- yes, and then they were dropped dow n to

4 capital, so there's no more debt at that point.

5 Q. Okay. So, there was some offset with that. An d one of the0 5 : 4 4

6 other ways to retire the loan to shareholder was in this

7 consolidation project where if you took on the bo oks -- and

8 this is an accounting principle -- see if you agr ee or disagree

9 with this -- where they would take the asset that was the

10 property in Antigua that was valued at over $3 bi llion and they0 5 : 4 4

11 would use that asset to capitalize the bank, reca pitalize the

12 bank, where there was a run on the bank and would also use that

13 figure to reduce or eliminate the loans to shareh older, the

14 1.8 billion-dollar loan to shareholder. Was that not the plan

15 of how they were going to retire that debt?0 5 : 4 5

16 A. What we saw on the screen on that, that is -- t hat was the

17 plan.

18 Q. That was the plan. And that was a way to do th is. So,

19 when you say there was no way they were ever goin g to be able

20 to retire the debt, you don't know that, do you?0 5 : 4 5

21 A. But this was paper. It was not cash.

22 Q. Yes, sir, it was paper; but that's the way that process

23 works is on paper, isn't it?

24 A. But the bank need -- the bank needed capitaliza tion. It

25 needed cash to pay back to the -- they're not goi ng to be able0 5 : 4 5

1 to sell real estate or give pieces of land to the clients. The0 5 : 4 5

2 clients were looking for their money.

3 Q. You don't know that they can't sell the real es tate, nor do

4 you know whether or not they couldn't go to a ban k and borrow

5 the money. If you have an asset worth $3 billion , you can0 5 : 4 5

6 borrow a billion against it, can't you?

7 A. Well, if you can find a bank that will -- in a down economy

8 where real estate went down the tube, I mean, if you can find a

9 bank to do that risky business, I mean, by all me ans, I mean,

10 that's --0 5 : 4 6

11 Q. So to say that it can't be done or it wasn't re alistic or

12 feasible just isn't correct, is it?

13 A. In the economy that we were living?

14 Q. No, just in general?

15 A. In general?0 5 : 4 6

16 Q. The economy may have affected it; but it was an idea that

17 they had as a method to retire the loan to shareh older, wasn't

18 it?

19 A. It was a method, yes.

20 Q. Right. And it was something that they had disc ussed and it0 5 : 4 6

21 was an effort that they were making, wasn't it?

22 A. That's correct.

23 Q. You wouldn't expect them to be pulling up wheel barrows full

24 of money into the bank, would you?

25 A. But if the clients are claiming that they want their0 5 : 4 6

1 deposit back, how -- by owning real estate that y ou cannot sell0 5 : 4 6

2 in 30 days or quick enough to pay back your clien ts, how do you

3 do that?

4 Q. You don't know that. You don't know whether or not they

5 could turn something that was an asset that had v alue in it0 5 : 4 6

6 into something liquid in whatever period of time?

7 A. Real estate is not liquid, sir.

8 Q. Yes, sir. Real estate can be liquid, can't it, Mr. Amadio?

9 A. It could be --

10 Q. Can be?0 5 : 4 7

11 A. -- but it's not considered -- in financial term s and

12 accounting terms, it is not considered as liquid.

13 Q. I think you'll have people disagree with you on that.

14 A. Okay.

15 Q. Let's talk about something else.0 5 : 4 7

16 You made a reference that -- in a conversation

17 you were having with Mr. Davis and he was talking about Allen

18 Stanford -- and it's in your report somewhere in here -- where

19 you said on a number of occasions -- or several o ccasions:

20 Davis referred to Stanford as an emperor has no c lothes. Do0 5 : 4 7

21 you remember talking that?

22 A. Yes, sir.

23 Q. Okay. Now, it was Davis that said that?

24 A. That's correct.

25 Q. And he was specifically referring to Stanford?0 5 : 4 7

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 269: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2561

1 A. That is correct.0 5 : 4 7

2 Q. You remember that old parable or fairytale?

3 A. About the emperor --

4 Q. Having no clothes?

5 A. Yes. Invisible clothes, yes.0 5 : 4 7

6 Q. Well, no clothes, wasn't it?

7 A. But he thought he -- it was an invisible clothi ng.

8 THE COURT: Wasn't visible and he thought it was great

9 and it looked great.

10 THE WITNESS: Nobody will tell him that he was --0 5 : 4 8

11 THE COURT: He was paying a tailor, that's what i t

12 was, to make wonderful invisible clothes that onl y the

13 righteous could see it or something like that. S o, he --

14 THE WITNESS: Something like that.

15 THE COURT: Something like that.0 5 : 4 8

16 BY MR. SCARDINO:

17 Q. I mean, Stanford didn't walk around without any clothes on,

18 did he?

19 A. It's a metaphor.

20 Q. A metaphor. Okay. And so, Davis was referring to Stanford0 5 : 4 8

21 as somebody that thought one thing but something else was

22 reality. Is that what you are saying?

23 A. What I said --

24 Q. Yeah.

25 A. -- earlier is that what I interpret of what Mr. Davis said0 5 : 4 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 270: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2562

1 about that comment or that metaphor was that eith er0 5 : 4 8

2 Mr. Stanford did not have any money or any more m oney or the

3 companies itself or the bank itself didn't have a ny more money

4 to continue because it was in the context of the funding, the

5 expenses that were growing and growing and growin g and having0 5 : 4 9

6 to be paying large amount of money on the expense s of each one

7 of these companies.

8 Q. So, Davis was the one that had the knowledge an d had the

9 information about the finances of the Stanford co mpanies --

10 actually, it's SIBL because Davis was in charge o f SIBL, right?0 5 : 4 9

11 A. He had the knowledge of the financials of all o f the

12 entities.

13 Q. Okay. He was the CFO of what?

14 A. The CFO of Stanford Financial Group Company but across the

15 board for -- also for the bank.0 5 : 4 9

16 Q. But he ran the bank, right?

17 A. He ran the bank, yes. He was part of the board .

18 Q. Stanford didn't run the bank; Davis ran the ban k?

19 A. I would not know that, sir.

20 Q. But when Davis said Stanford reminds him of the metaphor of0 5 : 4 9

21 the emperor has no clothes, did that not indicate to you that

22 Davis had information -- either he had informatio n that

23 Stanford didn't have or that he was knowledgeable in a way that

24 Stanford was not?

25 A. What I know about that and that comment is that Mr. Davis0 5 : 5 0

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 271: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2563

1 would always refer to Mr. Stanford as the shareho lder and that0 5 : 5 0

2 he would always talk to him about the shareholder funding

3 report and that he will make mention about the in formation

4 provided here. So --

5 Q. I'm confused. You would talk to Mr. Davis?0 5 : 5 0

6 A. No. Mr. Davis would mention that to us.

7 Q. Us, you --

8 A. To talk about to the accounting team that was m yself, Mark

9 Kuhrt, Gil Lopez, Rolando Roca would be there whe n -- during

10 budget times these topics will come up about the expenses and0 5 : 5 1

11 how to cut down on the expenses of the companies.

12 Q. Would Davis be in charge of putting the annual report

13 together?

14 A. I'm sorry. Say that again.

15 Q. Would Davis be in charge of putting the annual report0 5 : 5 1

16 together?

17 A. Yes, he would be.

18 Q. And that's the function of a CFO, right?

19 A. He would be, yes, responsible for that.

20 Q. He would be tasked to do that, like you were ta sked to be0 5 : 5 1

21 keep track of various things, loans to shareholde r and things

22 like that?

23 A. Yes, that's correct.

24 Q. So, the man that's in charge of putting the ann ual report

25 together was telling you that Stanford was the em peror with no0 5 : 5 1

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 272: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2564

1 clothes, right?0 5 : 5 1

2 A. He said that, yes.

3 Q. Okay. And how many times would he say that? W ould it be

4 something regular? Would he --

5 A. That I can recall, he mentioned it, I think, tw ice.0 5 : 5 1

6 Q. Twice? And what was going on that made him men tion that?

7 Were you in the process of preparing something, o r what was the

8 occasion?

9 A. It was in the context of budget preparations.

10 Q. Okay.0 5 : 5 2

11 A. I think -- I believe the first time I heard tha t was

12 towards the end of 2007, as we were walking into 2008, in the

13 preparation of the budget and showing how much wa s projected

14 the companies were spending and there was not eno ugh revenue --

15 or projected revenue to cover for all the expense s.0 5 : 5 2

16 We talked about reducing costs and talked about

17 reducing the size of the company down in -- Stanf ord Financial

18 Group Company and downsizing and selling corporat e jets. And

19 in that context he would mention that and that he would talk to

20 the shareholder.0 5 : 5 2

21 Q. Okay. So, Davis, in the context of putting fin ancial

22 information together, creating budgets, maybe pre paring a

23 quarterly or annual report is when he would say s omething maybe

24 disparaging about Stanford?

25 A. Talking about budgets.0 5 : 5 3

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 273: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2565

1 Q. Budgets mostly?0 5 : 5 3

2 A. Yes.

3 Q. Okay. And Davis was trying to reduce expenses, right?

4 A. That's correct.

5 Q. Okay. Well, this was a company then that he wa s trying to0 5 : 5 3

6 save, right? In a bad economy?

7 A. Those were the comments to -- yes, to cut down on costs,

8 yes.

9 Q. I mean, he's sitting there preparing budgets, h e's sitting

10 there trying to talk Stanford into getting rid of all the0 5 : 5 3

11 expensive jets even though they were part of the idea to bring

12 the high net worth people down there; but in that economy, it

13 wasn't working out. Davis was trying to convince him let's go

14 in a different direction, right?

15 A. He was trying to get them to cut back --0 5 : 5 3

16 Q. Yeah.

17 A. -- less expenses.

18 Q. That was responsible, right?

19 A. Well, that's what --

20 Q. You thought it was, didn't you?0 5 : 5 3

21 A. It was, yes.

22 Q. Okay. So, was he trying to perpetuate some kin d of fraud

23 with that kind of activity?

24 A. No.

25 Q. No. Okay. He was trying to convince Stanford to change0 5 : 5 4

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 274: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2566

1 his approach and his attitude towards how he was developing0 5 : 5 4

2 these other companies, wasn't he?

3 A. How he was spending the money, yes.

4 Q. All right. That's why he made the reference to the emperor

5 with no clothes. Stanford had one idea, Davis ha d another?0 5 : 5 4

6 A. Again, it's an interpretation of what that mean t and I took

7 that as the bank doesn't have any more money, the companies

8 didn't have more money, so Mr. Stanford didn't ha ve any more

9 money.

10 Q. Well, Mr. Amadio, you have no idea how much mon ey Stanford0 5 : 5 4

11 had or did not have, did you?

12 A. No, I do not know.

13 Q. Okay. You weren't privileged to have any of th at

14 information, were you?

15 A. I was not privileged to have any of that inform ation.0 5 : 5 4

16 Q. So, when you make a statement that Stanford did n't have any

17 more money, that's -- you just don't know what yo u are talking

18 about, do you?

19 A. What I know what I'm talking about is the fact that when

20 the bank needed cash, $25 million, that money did n't come from0 5 : 5 4

21 Mr. Stanford. We had to refinance corporate jets to be able to

22 scramble to get money. So, if Mr. Stanford did h ave

23 $25 million, my question to you, sir, is: Why di dn't he

24 provide that money?

25 Q. I don't know because --0 5 : 5 5

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 275: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2567

1 A. I don't know either.0 5 : 5 5

2 Q. -- that's -- that's a question that I'm sure Mr . Stanford

3 will be happy to answer later on. But the issue here is,

4 Mr. Amadio, is that you don't know. When you mak e statements

5 like that, you're making statements like that to support the0 5 : 5 5

6 government's case because it's not based on any d ata that you

7 have personal knowledge of. You don't know how m uch Stanford

8 had. You got no idea whether he had a billion do llars in the

9 bank or nothing, do you?

10 A. I did not know that, sir.0 5 : 5 5

11 Q. No, you have no idea. You don't know what his assets are.

12 You've never seen his financial statement, not ev en been close

13 to it, have you?

14 A. No, I never seen that.

15 Q. You didn't fly around on private jets like he d id, did you?0 5 : 5 5

16 A. I flew one time.

17 Q. One time on a -- well, he flew in one all the t ime, didn't

18 he? So, he lived in a different kind of world th an you did;

19 and you weren't in a position where he would shar e anything

20 about what he was worth and how much money he had at all?0 5 : 5 5

21 A. You're right, sir, nothing was shared.

22 Q. Okay. You talked on direct examination when Mr . Costa was

23 asking you questions about the plan as to how to contribute

24 some of this capitalization to different companie s. Do you

25 remember talking about that?0 5 : 5 6

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 276: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2568

1 A. Yes, sir.0 5 : 5 6

2 Q. Okay. And I would like to visit with you about that for a

3 minute.

4 THE COURT: Would this be a good time to break?

5 MR. SCARDINO: Yes, sir.0 5 : 5 6

6 THE COURT: If not --

7 MR. SCARDINO: I can finish this or whatever is

8 convenient.

9 THE COURT: Well, we got another, max, about nine

10 minutes. It's up to you. Do you want to wrap up something,0 5 : 5 6

11 then do it. I mean, we have the time.

12 MR. SCARDINO: I think I can do this in a few min utes.

13 THE COURT: Sure. Okay. That's fine.

14 Don't listen to him.

15 MR. SCARDINO: Let's try to finish this one littl e0 5 : 5 7

16 part, and then we'll go home.

17 THE COURT: Go on.

18 BY MR. SCARDINO:

19 Q. Mr. Costa asked you about the plan that was in place as to

20 how you were going to distribute some of this cap ital infusion.0 5 : 5 7

21 Do you remember talking about that?

22 A. The process, yes.

23 Q. Company A, Company B, Company C, do you remembe r that?

24 A. What was in that real estate document.

25 Q. Right. 0 5 : 5 7

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 277: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2569

1 A. Yes.0 5 : 5 7

2 Q. Now, who -- who came up with this idea? Who wa s -- who

3 generated this?

4 A. According to the e-mail, that information came from Mark

5 Kuhrt to Gil Lopez.0 5 : 5 7

6 Q. Okay. And whose idea was it?

7 A. I really don't know.

8 Q. I thought -- you didn't say it was Mr. Davis' i dea?

9 Maybe -- I made a note here, but maybe I was -- w rote it down

10 wrong. You think it was Mr. Kuhrt's idea?0 5 : 5 7

11 A. I don't know whose idea. I mean, the only thin g I know is

12 that that e-mail -- based on that e-mail informat ion that was

13 presented here.

14 Q. Okay. So, the e-mail that was generated talked about how

15 this process would work, did it not?0 5 : 5 7

16 A. The process of eliminating the shareholder fund ing --

17 Q. Right.

18 A. -- and capitalizing the bank?

19 Q. Right, the process of eliminating the sharehold er amount

20 and capitalizing these companies. That was the p lan, wasn't0 5 : 5 8

21 it?

22 A. On paper, yes.

23 Q. On paper. But that was the plan, wasn't it?

24 A. On that document on paper, yes.

25 Q. These guys were trying to make it work, weren't they?0 5 : 5 8

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 278: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2570

1 A. The whole idea was to eliminate the loan.0 5 : 5 8

2 Q. Right. So, what the -- the e-mail talked about Company A,

3 SIBL, 200 million, right?

4 A. (Nodding head).

5 Q. And then B, SIBL, 541 million, two different co ntributions0 5 : 5 8

6 to the bank, right?

7 A. Paper, yes.

8 Q. Well, it almost always is, isn't it, Mr. Amadio ?

9 A. Not always, but yes.

10 Q. Do you see a lot of cash coming in and out of t hese banks?0 5 : 5 8

11 A. In some cases you need to infuse cash. That's --

12 Q. And then C was to try to liquidate loan to shar eholder.

13 That was the plan. That was in the e-mail that w as generated

14 by Mr. Kuhrt to everybody to talk about how we're going to try

15 to accomplish this, right?0 5 : 5 9

16 A. The e-mail doesn't specify, but that's what the

17 statement -- the real estate --

18 Q. It wasn't generated by Allen Stanford, was it?

19 A. I don't know.

20 Q. I mean, but what you saw from the e-mail was th at it was0 5 : 5 9

21 something that was generated by Kuhrt that was di stributed to

22 other people that the plan was this was the way w e were going

23 to pay off the loan to shareholder, something you said could

24 never happen, right?

25 A. That is correct, yes.0 5 : 5 9

Cheryll K. Barron, CSR, CM, FCRR 713.250.5585

Page 279: Allen Stanford Criminal Trial Transcript Volume 8 Feb. 1, 2012

2571

1 Q. Yeah. And to capitalize the bank, right?0 5 : 5 9

2 A. That's correct, yes.

3 MR. SCARDINO: Thank you. I think that covers th at.

4 THE COURT: Ladies and gentlemen, that completes the

5 testimony for today. Again, if you're around tom orrow morning,0 5 : 5 9

6 we'll be up in courtroom -- what is it -- 11A, th e big
