WASHINGTON (AP) — A fed
eral judge in Texas froze a Houston
company’s assets Thursday after
regulators charged it had bilked in
vestors out of at least $350,000 with
false claims about a deal to dispose
of low-level radioactive waste in Af-
Houston-based FMF Corp. also
falsely claimed to have had a deal
with a pharmaceutical company to
dispose of 30,000 tons of contami
nated waste, according to a civil law
suit brought by the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
In the lawsuit, filed at federal
court in Houston, the SEC accused
FMF Corp. and three top officers of
a fraud scheme in which they either
deliberately misled investors or reck
lessly disregarded whether the infor
mation they supplied was true or
false.
Under the recently passed Securi
ties Enforcement Remedies and
Penny Stock Reform Act, the stock
market watchdog agency is seeking a
court order to freeze the defendants’
assets and make them pay restitution
to investors and fines to the govern
ment.
William McLucas, head of the
SEC’s Enforcement Division, said
the action was the first brought by
the agency under the new law that
empowers the SEC to seek fines for
securities crimes other than insider
trading.
He said the law allows the SEC to
seek up to $500,000 in fines from a
company for each alleged violation,
although the agency has not quanti
fied how many violations allegedly
occurred.

Court releases transcripts
of controversial Noriega tapes
MIAMI (AP) — A battle over Manuel Noriega’s
prison tapes ended Thursday when court transcripts
were released to the public on the orders of a federal
judge.
The transcript of some tapes showed apparent coded
references, but much of it concerned Noriega family
matters and current events in Panama. One tape in
cluded an apparently coded call by Noriega to the Cu
ban Embassy in Panama.
The tapes aired by CNN triggered a month-long bat
tle pitting freedom of the press against Noriega’s right
to a fair trial. The fight went all the way to the U.S. Su
preme Court.
U.S. District Judge William Hoeveler ruled last week
that the tapes were harmless to Noriega’s defense, and
allowed the network to air them.
This week, Hoeveler agreed to a request by four me
dia organizations to publicly release court transcripts of
the tapes, over the initial objections of CNN. The net
work dropped its fight Wednesday against release of
the transcripts.
In one transcript, Norma Amado, mother of Norie
ga’s mistress, talked in apparent code with him about
why “the man” had not arrived. The conversation ap
peared to revolve around frozen funds.
She said the man would go somewhere else because
“it’s not frozen there ... since we are all frozen here and
over there it wouldn’t be a problem.”
At another point, she tells Noriega tney need a good
towel ... and the important thing is it shouldn’t be a
hand (towel.)”
CNN has said that conversation also included coded
discussions about the transfer of $4 million.
In the conversation with the Cuban Embassy, No
riega tells a Cuban official he will send a fax “so you can
grab it and pass it on to the grandfather.”
In a transcript of Noriega’s conversation with an un
identified man, he urges the man to encourage opposi
tion to the government installed after the U.S. invasion.
“We must explain ... that one must unite, that there
are people with ambition that are now going to take
over the party,” Noriega says.
The network gave up the fight against releasing the
transcripts Wednesday, saying its chief concern was
protecting the sources who provided the tapes. After
reviewing the transcripts, CNN officials determined the
sources would not be compromised, their attorneys
said.
