Marshals, investors seek Daniel Prewett [South Florida]

U.S. Marshals are looking for Daniel Prewett, the Sarasota investment company owner free on $1 million bail for a federal money laundering charge.

So are a growing number of local investors like Reagan Leonard, who heard a rumor Prewett had left town and went to the office Tuesday demanding his investments.

“They have no idea where he is,” Leonard said of the JH Investment Services Inc. employees at 5777 S. Beneva Road. “He has about $150,000 worth of my money. He has my daughter’s college tuition.”

Prewett’s other investors are repeating the same story with the same results: They can’t get a meeting with the company, and now they are going to an attorney.
