Former Illionois State Representative Roger Stanley could have his bond revoked unless he tells the truth about his investments in the Central American nation of Costa Rica. Stanley is charged with making payoffs in an offshoot of the bribes-for-licenses scandal. Declaring they feared Stanley might flee to Costa Rica rather than face trial, prosecutors urged the judge to block the deposit of the pension checks in that country at the Casa del Cambio Villa Lobos bank (The Brothers). Stanley has been cashing extra state pension checks in Costa Rica where he owns an interest in the travel agency Costa Rican Ville Travel and Tourism Co. Prosecutors disclosed last week that Stanley has some type of investment with the bank that pays 3 percent interest monthly, a sum which is regularly forwarded to the travel agency. They also disclosed that Stanley has a girlfriend and a son in that country as well as a wife and two children in the United States.
