Fugitive Democratic Fundraiser Norman Hsu Turns Self in to Police
Fox News/AP ^

Posted on 08/31/2007 9:32:18 AM PDT by B Knotts

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. — A top Democratic fundraiser wanted as a fugitive in California turned himself in Friday to face a grand theft charge.

A judge in San Mateo County Superior Court ordered Norman Hsu handcuffed and held on $2 million bond. A bail hearing was scheduled for Sept. 5, at which the judge will consider reducing his bail to $1 million.

Hsu appeared in court here Friday following reports that he had skipped his sentencing on a 1991 grand theft charge. In the ensuing years, he became a top donor to numerous Democratic candidates, including presidential contenders Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama.

I bet someone like Soros was feeding him the money to donate. From what I have read, none of his businesses check out, so where did he get all the money he has donated. A lot of his addresses are phony as well.

"Fugitive Democratic Fundraiser Turns Self in to Police"

To avoid Arkancide, no doubt. Now that he's viewed as a liability to Hillary, he probably feels safer in the hands of the police than out in the world.

“Fugitive DemocRATic Fundraiser.” With the DemocRATS being above the law, it probably won’t go anywhere but it sure does sound good.

I imagine the biggest issue at his trial will be is that Hsu should be allowed to take tax deductions for his money that was “donated to charity” by his politician pals. It’s a wacky world out there.

My thoughts exactly. He'll probably request witness protection status.

If not he's dead man walking. :)

He’s already a fugitive so why is he even offered bail? This is crap! This guy needs to check directly into prison to serve his time.

You can do this test. Ask people in the office if they have heard about the senator from Idaho. The answer all day for me has been “yes”. Now ask if anybody has heard about Norman Hsu, the Paws and Hillary and the answer will be “huh”? The media will do their best to keep this quiet and will cover for the beast if they have to report the story. Give it up folks, Hillary can’t be hurt with anything she does wrong. She will always slither out of the way of trouble.

I'll bet you're right. The "donate to charity" bit is just liberal bovine scatology meant for the public consumption by the adoring masses who idolize Bill Clinton's wife.

Clinton’s went to the ChiComm well just one too many times here. The problem is, with the democrats in charge of Congress, you’ll never know.

Hell, with GOP in charge we didn’t find out either.

Good question! Apparently he is NOT a toe-taping, finger-fidgeting "republican" or the so-called media would have been all over this like white on rice. This doesn't titillate the bozos in the media as much as homosexual bathroom antics do.

I wonder if she'll donate it to the "American Museum Council."

Mrs. Clinton's June 30, 2000 Federal Election Commission filing cited Alamoudi's May 25 donation of $1,000 to her war chest. Oddly enough, his occupation is not listed as "American Muslim Council" but "American Museum Council." The Clinton campaign calls this a typo.

Oops, must be a typo
