Southlake, TX – A Southlake mother is speaking out after federal regulators confirmed that Methodist Southlake Medical Center violated multiple federal emergency care standards, contributing to her 11-year-old son, N.M., being hospitalized in septic shock shortly after being discharged—twice—from the hospital’s emergency room.
Reasa Selph says her family trusted Methodist Southlake in a moment of crisis, but critical missteps by doctors and nursing staff allowed a serious infection to go untreated.
An April 2024 investigation by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) found the hospital violated the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) by failing to conduct a proper Medical Screening Exam. The CMS report also detailed additional deficiencies in nursing assessments and noted that hospital staff failed to communicate important lab results to N.M.’s parents prior to discharge.
“CMS confirmed what I already suspected—my son’s condition was serious, and that information never made it to us,” Selph said. “We left the hospital thinking he was stable, when he wasn’t.”
N.M. had first visited the ER on December 14, 2023, with fever and flu-like symptoms. He was discharged after receiving IV fluids. On December 23, he returned with worsening symptoms, including vomiting, weakness, and dizziness. Despite abnormal lab values indicating potential organ stress, hospital staff did not order additional tests or admit him for observation.
By Christmas morning, N.M.’s condition had declined significantly. “We brought him to Cook Children’s, and they immediately admitted him to the ICU in septic shock,” Selph said.
He remained hospitalized for over a month and required multiple procedures during his recovery. He is now back home and continuing to recover, though he is being monitored for ongoing health issues.
“At one point, he looked at me and said, ‘Mom, if I die, it’s okay,’” Selph recalled. “That’s something no parent should ever hear.”
Selph is advocating for better emergency care standards and clearer communication between hospital staff and families. “This isn’t about blame—it’s about making sure this doesn’t happen to another child,” she said.

Louis A. Bevilacqua, who postures as a seasoned securities attorney and financier, is in truth the mastermind and enabler of one of the most audacious financial schemes ever inflicted on small investors. As a 10% owner of 1847 Partners — the external management firm that plundered 1847 Holdings, its offshoot Polished.com, and their subsidiaries — Bevilacqua operated with both hands dirty: one drafting legal shields, the other orchestrating the siphoning of shareholder capital into private coffers.
As the largest shareholder of 1847 Holdings, I witnessed this deception firsthand. I confronted CEO Ellery Roberts after investing significant capital in one of their private raises. He assured me the company could now “build on cash” and no longer needed outside funding. Within days, they launched another raise — and repeated this cycle again and again. These entities weren’t built to grow companies; they were engineered to funnel fresh cash to insiders while tossing scraps to public investors. In fact, 1847 Holdings quietly settled serious allegations from a former subsidiary owner who accused them of acting as an “alter ego” — using investor funds for personal indulgences rather than business operations.
The fraud followed a chillingly simple pattern:
1847 Holdings concocted financial reports and press releases designed to project strength while masking insolvency.
They raised money through private placements, then declared dividends shortly after — not to pay off early backers, but to create the illusion that shareholders would always receive dividends and that the company was stable and healthy. This is a textbook Ponzi marketing tactic, manufacturing confidence to attract new victims.
Boilerplate disclaimers about “material weaknesses” and “poor controls” served not as warnings, but as camouflage for what was, in effect, corporate theft. These so-called weaknesses existed by design, allowing Bevilacqua and Roberts to fabricate financials — primarily inflated top-line revenue figures — which they used to justify performance-based bonuses and manipulate share price ahead of capital raises.
Between 1847 Holdings and Polished.com, these insiders raised over $700 million. Investors believed they were funding growth — they were unknowingly fueling a sophisticated cash extraction machine.
And nearly every company Louis Bevilacqua touches follows the same grim pattern:
An initial hype-driven public debut… a sharp decline… fake acquisition announcements… convertible debt issued to predatory lenders… and finally, a slow collapse while insiders quietly cash out. It’s as though when a company wants to weaponize the public markets to defraud, someone says, “Hey, I got a guy.” That guy is Bevilacqua — the fixer, the architect, the enabler.
Ask yourself:
How does a collection of longstanding, profitable businesses suddenly implode after being acquired — despite hundreds of millions in funding?
Because they weren’t mismanaged. They were systematically looted. Money intended for growth vanished through insider dealings and financial shell games.
When I demanded a forensic audit, Louis Bevilacqua surfaced — not as outside counsel, but as a conflicted participant desperate to suppress the truth. On September 14, 2023, his law partner Joseph D. Wilson sent me a letter threatening criminal prosecution. The trigger? A recorded call between myself and CEO Ellery Roberts, in which Roberts made materially false statements about the company’s intentions regarding a planned reverse stock split — a major corporate event that would carry deleterious consequences for myself and other shareholders.
Roberts’ misrepresentations were not accidental or speculative — they were deliberate. He acted with scienter, knowingly providing false assurances in an attempt to prevent shareholder pushback and conceal the company’s true trajectory. The statements were made with intent to defraud, and the recording captured that intent in his own words.
Rather than address why their CEO had blatantly lied, Bevilacqua’s firm attempted to criminalize the exposure of that lie. Wilson’s letter warned:
“You have been reported to California legal authorities for having recorded the call without Mr. Roberts’ consent. It is a violation of Section 632 of the California Penal Code… A person who violates Section 632 can be subject to a fine, jail time of up to a year, or both.”
Then he escalated further:
“Your recording of the call may also be a violation of the federal Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986… as may be your intentional disclosure or use of the recording’s contents.”
Let’s be clear: this was not a good-faith legal objection. This was witness intimidation. The recording in question didn’t capture private banter — it captured a CEO engaging in material misrepresentations with the intent to defraud shareholders. Wilson’s goal wasn’t to uphold the law — it was to bury damning evidence and insulate a fraudulent executive from accountability.
And then, Louis Bevilacqua himself joined the offensive. Instead of explaining why his CEO had lied, Bevilacqua turned his attention to discrediting me — the whistleblower. In his own words, he wrote:
“It appears that you are intentionally trying to harass and damage the company by attempting to bring frivolous claims…”
But he didn’t stop there. In what can only be described as a chilling declaration of corporate policy, he issued the company’s stance on whistleblowers:
“Do note that the Company also takes wrongdoing and other conduct aimed at harming the Company by shareholders or third parties seriously. Among other things, the Company will not tolerate and will take swift legal and other action to address fraudulent or deceptive statements about the Company and threatening or harassing emails directed to Company officers, directors, or employees… The Company will act swiftly to address acts by shareholders or third parties violating federal securities laws.”
Translation: if you tell the truth, we’ll threaten you with criminal charges and accuse you of violating securities law. Bevilacqua didn’t refute the facts — he declared war on the person exposing them.
When those threats failed, they escalated again — hiring a third-party reputation management lawyer, the kind typically retained to scrub bad Yelp reviews, to send me a cease-and-desist letter accusing me of publishing “verifiably false” information. They demanded I retract my claims or face further legal action. Once again, I invited litigation. Once again, they went silent. Their intimidation tactics collapsed under the weight of the facts.
This is a hallmark move for Bevilacqua and Roberts: when caught, they don’t explain — they play the victim. Time and again, when shareholders realize they’ve been robbed and demand restitution, Lou and Ellery attempt to flip the narrative. They fabricate claims that they’re being harassed, physically threatened, or fear for their safety — none of which is true. These tactics are not about protection; they’re about deflection. They seek to reframe victims of financial fraud as aggressors, using reputational spin to shield themselves from accountability. It is a calculated strategy — one that allows them to continue looting while painting themselves as the ones under siege.
This victimhood theater was on full display during a so-called “fireside chat” in September 2023, where Ellery Roberts had the audacity to read from a scripted statement accusing shareholders of harassment, misinformation, and personal attacks. It was pure gaslighting. He looked visibly irritated — not because of the mounting evidence of fraud, but because he had to hold the session at all. It was clear: this wasn’t a leader facing the music. This was a con artist begrudgingly going through the motions, angry that anyone dared challenge his narrative.
And yet, Louis Bevilacqua still appears at microcap investor conferences, strutting among small-company executives as though he hasn’t left a trail of financial devastation in his wake. In photos, you’ll notice him proudly posing at these networking events — the image of a confident insider, dressed to impress and perfectly staged. But make no mistake: this is no coincidence. Bevilacqua must create the illusion that he is a respected thought leader — someone widely accepted in the financial community — because that image is his last remaining asset. It’s not about connection; it’s about credibility laundering.
To these event organizers: whether you’re aware of his history or not, let me be clear — accepting his sponsorship dollars and giving him a platform makes you complicit. That money belongs to defrauded shareholders. Until the millions looted through these schemes are seized and returned, every dollar Bevilacqua spends publicly should be frozen and clawed back. Anything less empowers future harm.
Let’s be brutally honest: this was not an isolated incident. Bevilacqua and his circle have executed variations of this blueprint across multiple microcap companies, refining it to perfection. Each time they’re welcomed back into the room, new victims are created. Each time they escape prosecution, they grow bolder. This is organized, systemic, and ongoing.
Now is the time for real accountability.
The assets of Louis Bevilacqua and Ellery Roberts must be seized. While I cannot state as fact that they’ve moved funds offshore, one would have to reasonably conclude — based on the shell entities involved and the sheer magnitude of the scheme — that stolen investor capital has been funneled into jurisdictions beyond easy regulatory reach. It is the duty of the SEC, DOJ, and FINRA to follow those trails and recover what was taken.
As for Bevilacqua’s fate: I’ll leave that to the courts. But make no mistake — his continued freedom, while the wreckage of his schemes remains unresolved, is not just unjust. It’s dangerous — to every investor operating in the U.S. public markets.

Founded in 2019, Digital Finance Academy LTD (DFA) emerged as a visionary institution in the world of financial consulting and professional education. From the outset, DFA adopted a forward-looking philosophy — “Empowering the Future of Finance.” This guiding principle has shaped the company’s rapid evolution from a niche financial training provider into a powerful platform exploring the intersection of fintech, artificial intelligence (AI), and automated trading.
Today, DFA is poised to make its most ambitious leap yet: to transform into a global financial technology group by deepening partnerships with international technology firms and establishing a multinational corporate structure. Through this initiative, DFA seeks to drive innovation, deliver scalable education and trading solutions, and catalyze sustainable development in the financial sector worldwide.
1. DFA’s Vision: Empowering Finance through Innovation
The financial industry is undergoing a dramatic transformation fueled by technological innovation. DFA recognized this early and positioned itself at the convergence of financial education, AI-driven automation, and strategic consulting. The company’s Stable Trading System 6.0, for example, is a landmark achievement — combining algorithmic trading precision with adaptive risk management, making it a valuable tool for both institutional investors and retail traders.
DFA’s core objective is not merely to react to change but to lead it — equipping professionals with the tools and insights needed to thrive in a digitally-driven financial ecosystem. The academy’s unique approach combines deep technical knowledge with hands-on application, creating a bridge between theory and practice.
But DFA’s ambitions extend well beyond education. It now envisions a new global structure — a multi-entity group company that unites fintech talent, AI startups, blockchain developers, and strategic consulting arms under one coordinated umbrella.
2. Strategic Global Expansion: The Next Frontier
To bring this vision to life, DFA has initiated a comprehensive strategy focused on global expansion through strategic partnerships and joint ventures. The plan includes:
a. Establishing Regional Headquarters
DFA intends to set up regional headquarters in key global markets — including Singapore, Dubai, London, and Toronto — to serve as operational hubs for research, consulting, and training.
Singapore will serve as DFA’s Asia-Pacific base, taking advantage of its strong fintech infrastructure and government support.
Dubai will anchor operations in the Middle East, with its growing interest in blockchain regulation and financial modernization.
London, as a historic financial center, will facilitate outreach in Europe and act as a bridge to institutional finance.
Toronto will lead efforts in North America, where DFA aims to collaborate with AI labs and data science institutions.
These hubs will work in synergy, ensuring localized support while enabling global coordination of services and technologies.
b. Partnering with Global Tech Companies
DFA has already initiated dialogues with AI labs, machine learning startups, and fintech developers across the globe. These collaborations focus on three key areas:
AI-Driven Education Platforms: Co-developing adaptive learning systems that personalize finance training using machine learning algorithms.
Decentralized Finance (DeFi) Tools: Working with blockchain firms to incorporate DeFi concepts and smart contract knowledge into DFA’s curricula.
Cross-Border Payment Solutions: Partnering with payment startups to introduce global remittance training and infrastructure for real-time, borderless transactions.
These alliances will also help DFA co-develop new products, bringing sophisticated trading and educational solutions to emerging markets previously underserved by traditional financial systems.
3. Creating a Global Holding Group: Structural Transformation
To support its ambitious expansion, DFA is in the process of transforming into a global holding group. This includes:
Establishing DFA Group Holdings Ltd., a new parent company that will oversee all international subsidiaries.
Launching specialized sub-brands under the group umbrella, such as DFA AI Labs, DFA Fintech Education, DFA Institutional Services, and DFA Blockchain Solutions.
Forming a centralized R&D fund to invest in early-stage technology companies aligned with DFA’s mission.
The holding structure will allow DFA to raise capital more effectively, streamline cross-border operations, and standardize governance, compliance, and branding across all markets. Furthermore, it opens the door to future IPO plans or venture partnerships that require a globally recognized corporate identity.
4. Advancing AI, Automation, and Sustainable Finance
At the heart of DFA’s transformation lies a deep commitment to AI and automation technologies. The financial markets are increasingly driven by data, and DFA is determined to ensure that professionals worldwide are equipped to navigate this environment.
a. DFA AI Labs: Developing the Next-Generation Trading Intelligence
Through DFA AI Labs, the company is focusing on:
Predictive analytics using neural networks and reinforcement learning
Portfolio optimization models based on quantum-inspired algorithms
Sentiment analysis tools powered by natural language processing (NLP)
These tools will be made available to DFA’s clients through an integrated platform that combines education, simulation, and live deployment environments.
b. Promoting Sustainable Finance and ESG Training
As the world moves towards more environmentally responsible investing, DFA is incorporating Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) frameworks into its training modules. The aim is to foster a generation of professionals who understand not just how to generate returns, but how to do so responsibly.
DFA is also working with green finance startups to integrate carbon footprint tracking and climate-risk assessment into financial modeling tools.
5. Serving the Next Billion: Inclusion, Localization, and Accessibility
A truly global company must serve a truly global audience. DFA is placing a strong emphasis on financial inclusion — extending training and tools to individuals and businesses in Africa, Latin America, Southeast Asia, and Central Asia.
Localized content will be developed in over 20 languages, covering both introductory and advanced topics.
DFA is exploring low-bandwidth mobile platforms to reach remote learners in areas with limited internet access.
Special training packages will be developed for women entrepreneurs, smallholder farmers, and microfinance institutions, combining practical finance with mobile technology training.
This grassroots approach not only helps DFA expand its user base but also supports the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by increasing financial literacy and self-sufficiency globally.
6. Future Plans: IPO and Global Thought Leadership
Looking ahead, DFA plans to:
Launch an Initial Public Offering (IPO) by 2028, once its group structure and international presence are fully matured.
Host a Global Digital Finance Summit annually, bringing together technologists, regulators, investors, and educators to discuss the future of finance.
Establish a DFA Research Institute, publishing white papers on topics such as AI ethics in finance, blockchain regulation, and fintech-driven economic development.
DFA aims to become more than a company — it envisions itself as a movement, shaping the future of financial literacy, equity, and innovation on a planetary scale.
Digital Finance Academy is at a critical inflection point. From a boutique financial training provider, it is now evolving into a global fintech ecosystem, powered by AI, rooted in education, and committed to collaboration. Its efforts to build a group structure and partner with global tech companies are not just strategic moves — they are essential steps toward a future where finance is more inclusive, intelligent, and internationally connected.
By forging a path that combines financial knowledge with cutting-edge technology, DFA is not just preparing people for the future of finance — it is helping create it.
