REDWOOD CITY, Calif. -- A warrant was issued this morning for Democratic fundraiser Norman Hsu, who failed to appear for a bail hearing on a 15-year-old grand theft charge.
San Mateo County Superior Court Judge Robert D. Foiles ordered Hsu, a major fundraiser for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential campaign, to be held without bail should he make an appearance. Last week, Hsu was released after posting $2 million bail.
Hsu's attorney, James Brosnahan, explained that he had lost contact with Hsu and that the financier had failed to deliver his passport as promised.
"Mr. Hsu is not here and we don't know where he is," Brosnahan said outside court. "We expected him to be here."
Brosnahan told Foiles that a legal assistant for his law firm went to Hsu's New York City condominium last week and spent 90 minutes searching for Hsu's passport.
Prosecutors in California said Hsu disappeared in 1992 after pleading no contest and agreeing to serve up to three years in prison for defrauding investors in a Ponzi scheme.
"We don't know if he has his passport," Deputy Atty. Gen. Ralph Sevilla said. "What we do know is that a bench warrant has been issued."
Asked if Hsu has left the United States, Sevilla said that "he has that capability."
Hsu has lived in Hong Kong, where he has financial interests.

He’ll be found mysteriously shot in the back of the head by a shotgun... And they will rule it suicide..
Gee, there’s a real friggin’ shock.
A plane crash is also entirely possible... with a bullet hole in his head.
Bingo... But remember the hole has to be perfectly on top... As to have no exit wound.
Being the right time of year for planting large trees in your landscape, Hsu was doing just that when he fell into the hole and accidentally covered himself with the dirt, only to die before he could dig back out.
Never Never Never cross the Clintons.....Never.
Why is Attorney General Jerry Brown hiding behind a deputy on this big story?
Why isn't the CA Attorney General himself taking the lead on finding out what happened?
Could it be that Brown doesn't want to tarnish a possible run again for Governor? Is this what the people of California elected, or is this to be expected from somebody who fudged his qualifications for the office?

Former Senator Bob Kerrey is deeply saddened.

Where is the Bush’s Justice Department? The FBI should be called in and find this scum. Hopefully before the Klintoista’s do, or he may wind up in Ft Mercy Park with a self-inflicted wound...
This guy will never be seen again. Just a prediction.
Popcorn?
Of course, the MSM knows it’s MUCH worse to be playing footsie in airport bathrooms than being corrupt or taking dirty money, right Hillary?
Yes, and he was bringing his good friends, the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny with him.
Have they checked the temple in Hacienda Heights?
Why does he have to show for a bond reduction hearing? Presumably, he asked for it and, by default, has now accepted the origianl bond. It’s not as if he didn’t show for his actual trial. If I am correct, then this is being overhyped in preparation for ignoring the actual trial later, a classic Clinton era strategy to make scandals go away.
If HSU is still alive, let’s get the Dog on it! That is unless Dog is going to the big House for plucking that serial rapist from our friends in Mexico.
Is Chris Matthews on this story?
