Jerry Simpson also allegedly did not inform Thrivent Investment that he had a felony charge alleging wanton abuse/neglect of an adult by a person, and that he may have allegedly misappropriated funds from customers, according to a FINRA Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent (AWC) under review by investor rights attorney Alan Rosca.
