38 YEARS AGO…Saturday-Sunday April 28-29, 1973 Globe-Democrat
Judge issued Bail Bondsmen ‘Blank Check’
By James Robinson and Steve Higgins
A St. Louis judge signed more than a dozen blank bail bonds for three commercial bondsmen to use while the judge was vacationing in Ireland last summer, a Globe-Democrat investigation shows.
Judge Richard J. Brown of the St. Louis Court of Criminal Correction, signed 14 separate blank bonds and apparently divided them between bondsmen Carl Biondo and Bernard and Irwin Crouppen before Brown’s three-week trip to Ireland in July and August last year…
In effect the judge signed his name to a “blank check” which allowed the bondsmen to write in the name of any person he wanted to and subsequently gain the release of that individual from police custody for any amount the bondsmen designated.
At first Brown said he “couldn’t recall ever having done such a thing” but later admitted that he may have given out a blank “bond or two with my signature.”…
When asked how a blank bond scheme could occur, Crouppen added:
“I can’t answer you about something I have no answer for.”
One St. Louis judge with more than 30 years on the bench had said that “gratuities” from a bondsmen to a judge may be a possible cause for some bail bond irregularities.” …

John M. Huff Named to Director Position at DIFP
JEFFERSON CITY, MO – – John M. Huff has been confirmed by the Missouri Senate to become the Director of the Missouri Department of Insurance, Financial Institutions and Professional Registration. Governor Jay Nixon selected Huff as his choice for director earlier this month, selecting him to lead the state agency which oversees several aspects of financial markets in the state. Mr. Huff’s sixteen years of insurance experience will be utilized in protecting Missouri insurance consumers and investors in light of the current difficult economic times.
“I am honored to have been chosen as the director of this department. At this time in our state’s history, it is of the highest importance to enact measures that not only protect consumers, but also allow for fair business,” stated Mr. Huff. “I will utilize the experience I have in the industry to make sure our department does everything in its power to provide consumers the protection they need and deserve, as well as promote Missouri as a great place to conduct business.”
For the past several years, Mr. Huff has worked at Swiss Re, a leading provider of reinsurance in the industry. In his role as managing director and strategic claims officer, he oversaw matters within the company’s strategic and emerging claims portfolio. In 2008, Mr. Huff was promoted to the position of global head of key case management and moved to Swiss Re’s global headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland. In this position, he managed some of the company’s most-complex dispute resolution matters.
Mr. Huff earned his bachelor’s in business administration at Southeast Missouri State University. In May 1987, he earned an MBA at St. Louis University, and he graduated from the Washington University School of Law with a juris doctorate in May 1990. Mr. Huff and his wife, Donna Phelps, have an eight-year-old daughter, Ann Huff.
The department is the chief regulator in the state of Missouri for insurance, banks, credit unions, and various professional licenses. The agency is divided into seven divisions, with four of those divisions overseeing the insurance market in this state.

News line, 07/25/2008.
In response to the legislative threats last legislative session, several bail bond agents around the state met together to oppose legislation sponsored by the MPBBA which would transfer the DIFP’s authority to a bail bond board. In order fund the new board, the bill required a new $10 bail bond tax. The group received tremendous help from concerned agents who collected hundreds of signatures opposing the legislation. The bill failed, the session ended, and the group decided to form a bail association. In June, Associated Bail Agents of Missouri, Inc. (ABAM) was formed. The association is a non-profit trade association. Bart Cooper serves as the association president, Stan Clark as vice-president, Dave Strassner as treasurer, and Angela Park as secretary. The board of directors are Tina Bozarth , Dan Mense, Stan Moreland, Mike Thomas and Jim Walker. Rick Adams serves as chair of membership. ABAM will work as legislative watch-dogs in the upcoming session and will give bondsmen and recovery agents a new choice in order to network cooperatively with their colleagues in the industry. This new, spirited association is working on other goals to improve our industry and give us all more opportunities to grow our businesses.
