guardian.co.uk: "Victims of the collapse of Sir Allen Stanford's business empire have expressed horror at prosecutors' contention that their savings bankrolled a billionaire's 'personal playground' stretching from international cricket tournaments to Caribbean villas and even a ritzy restaurant, the Sticky Wicket.
As many as 28,000 people are thought to have lost a total of $7bn (£4.2bn) through the collapse of Stanford International Bank. About 4,500 are from the US, where the bank had 29 offices. Many others are from the Caribbean and Latin America – Stanford had operations as far afield as Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, Panama and Peru."
