Federal prosecutors in Brooklyn also said yesterday that Paul F. Coughlin, a former stock broker for Merrill Lynch, and William B. Deakins, a former Watley day trader, both pleaded guilty earlier this month to charges of conspiracy to commit securities fraud. Mr. Coughlin worked out of Merrill Lynch's office in Rockefeller Center, where Peter E. Bacanovic had once worked as Martha Stewart's stockbroker.
