HARTFORD, Conn. — A Weston man has admitted to committing insider trading, according to a release Friday from the Interim U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut.

The insider trading offense that illegally netted Squillante $220,912 could land him in prison for up to two decades, prosecutors said.

Court documents and statements revealed that Squillante worked from home while he was employed as Head of Equity Trading at Irving Investors, an investment company that is headquartered in Denver, Colo.
