More on David G. Friehling
Description from Wikipedia:
David G. Friehling was Bernard Madoff's accountant and was the second person arrested in the Madoff investment scandal. He is a 1981 graduate of Cornell University, and a recent past-president of the Rockland chapter of the NYS Society of CPAs (NYSCPA).
For many years, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC books were audited by Friehling & Horowitz, a little-known accounting office in New York's northern suburbs. Some potential investors in Madoff's fund balked when they learned that an unknown outfit with little or no staff was responsible for auditing a multi-billion-dollar operation.
The firm included one partner then in his late 70s who lives in Florida, a secretary, and one active accountant.
Jerome Horowitz, 80, of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, audited Madoff's books for many years before retiring and handing the account over to his son-in-law, Friehling, in the early 1990s.
The accounting firm has informed the AICPA in writing for 15 years that it does not conduct audits. An investigation into Friehling by Rockland County, New York district attorney Thomas Zugibe was stopped in deferral to the investigation by the US Attorney's office out of Manhattan.
On March 18, 2009, he was charged with securities fraud, aiding and abetting investment adviser fraud, and four counts of filing false audit reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, though he was not charged for knowing about the fraud. He has not yet entered a plea and faces up to 105 years in prison on all of the charges.
The SEC also separately brought civil charges against Friehling and his firm. Madoff's firm paid Friehling between $12,000 and $14,500 a month for his services between 2004 and 2007.
