Bennett investors seek replacement of trustee Breeden in Bennett case
Halo Group spokesman Henry Schaeffer says 113 holders of Bennett creditors want Richard C. Breeden removed as Chapter 11 trustee to refocus Bennett on rebuilding debt-free operations. Federal investigators accuse Bennett Funding Group of a Ponzi scheme, with Breeden claiming few fraud-tainted finance firms resurface post Chapter 11. Breeden cites creditor proof of claim deadlines as gate to payments, while Halo Group holds about 100 million dollars in Bennett investments and urges a new trustee.
