DRUMSTICK TIMPANI FUND LP Investigation | Goodman & Nekvasil, P.A.
Jordan Roman is the Manager of Drumstick Timpani Fund LP, according to FORM D Filed with the SEC. On Friday, May 30, 2025 Roman was charged by the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Northern District of Illinois with defrauding a suburban Chicago client out of approximately $500,000.
Per the information, from 2012 to 2024, Roman fraudulently obtained funds from an investor in a Chicago suburb. He allegedly did so by misrepresenting the intended use of the investment and falsely boasting of the investment’s performance and value. In addition, Roman falsely told the victim that he would invest the money on the victim’s behalf, even though Roman knew some of the money would be used for Roman’s personal benefit, including paying utility and credit card bills, the information states.
Roman concealed his misappropriation by creating bogus account statements and tax forms that falsely represented the victim’s investment was greater than its actual value, the information states, according to the information.
The information was announced by Andrew S. Boutros, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, and Douglas S. DePodesta, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Chicago Field Office of the FBI. The government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Jared Hasten and Paige Nutini.
The public is reminded that an information is not evidence of guilt. The defendant is presumed innocent and entitled to a fair trial at which the government has the burden of proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

BlackBird Financial LP Investigation and the Risks of Alternative Investments
Many investors are not fully aware of the problems and risks associated with illiquid, high risk, alternative investments when they purchase them.
Investments are often riskier and more complicated than traditional investments. These funds are only suitable for high net worth, sophisticated investors.
Liquidity Issues and High Sales Commissions
Alternative investments can face several liquidity issues due to their unique characteristics and structure.
Another problem often associated with alternative investments is the high sales commissions brokers typically earn for selling them. Brokers have an obligation to make investment recommendations that are consistent with their clients risk tolerance, net worth, investment objectives and experience in the market.
Unfortunately, in many cases, the high sales commission may influence unsuitable investment recommendations.
Broker Due Diligence
Broker dealers are required to perform adequate due diligence on any investment they recommend and to ensure that all recommendations are suitable for the investor. Firms that fail to do so may be held responsible for any losses in a FINRA arbitration claim.
