Stanley Polley: During his tenure as a manager two of his clients
committed suicide. Both were members of the famed group Badfinger.
Polley locked the band into numerous contracts and other schemes in
which he lined up Badfinger’s income to be directed to him first, always
with a huge contractual cut off the top for himself. It eventually came
into the open that Polley was a nefarious crook who set up “ponzi
schemes” on his clients, laundered their money, embezzled their funds
and that he had an earlier background as a Mafia “bagman”! When Pete
Ham realized, he was absolutely crippled by Polley (with no income, a
stagnated record contract, and his trust in humankind forever
disillusioned), he drank a lot one night and sadly made a rash choice - to
take his own life by hanging. When Pete Ham committed suicide in
1975, he left a note. The final sentences read: “Stan Polley is a soulless
bastard. I will take him with me.” It has been stated that per the NY
Times, Stanley was named during a Senate investigative hearing in 1971
as being an intermediary between crime figures and a Superior Court
Judge. He died on July 20, 2004 in California.
