Hope he doesn’t “accidently” commit suicide in jail.... Remember Vince Foster.
Disgraced Dem donor arrested in Colorado
SAN FRANCISCO - Disgraced Democratic fundraiser Norman Hsu was arrested in Colorado late Thursday on a warrant a judge issued after he failed to show up for a court appearance related to a felony theft conviction.
FBI agents took Hsu into custody at St. Mary's Hospital in Grand Junction, Colo., said FBI spokesman Joseph Schadler.
Hsu had been scheduled to appear in court Wednesday to turn over his passport and ask a judge to cut in half the $2 million bail he posted last week when he turned himself in after spending 15 years on the lam from a felony theft conviction.
Instead, Hsu failed to show up at the bail reduction hearing and a judge issued a new arrest warrant for him.
California Attorney General spokesman Gareth Lacy said Hsu's lawyers told prosecutors Hsu arrived by charter jet at the Oakland airport about 5:30 a.m. Wednesday local time and then wasn't heard from again.
When it became apparent that Hsu had fled the state, California authorities sought the assistance of the FBI, whose agents arrested him Thursday night on charges of unlawful flight to avoid prosecution, Schadler said.
Once he is returned to state custody, the federal charges will be dismissed, Schadler said.
This will be an interesting story tomorrow morning. It’s possible to have driven from Silicon Valley to Grand Junction in 36 hours but I’d bet that he flew.
DOUGGGGG DUDEEE look what happen to Hsu
He still has his passport? When will a court finally conclude that Hsu is a flight risk and confiscate his passport, refuse him bail and clap him in jail? Our judges are actually this stupid?
I can’t believe it! I thought he was in China or something.
Whoa! Why didn’t he leave the US, I wonder?
(I know none of you know why... just wondering online.)
Headline? China: Crackdown on 'illegal immigrants' likely to target North Korean refugees, fugitive fund raisers.
'We just want to give money to our friends, we don't want the delivery boys here,' said a Peoples Police border guard.
Good news! For us. Bad for the Dems. Hehehe...
I'm a superstitious man, and if some unlucky accident should befall this Hsu - if he
is to be shot in the head by a police officer, or be found hung dead in a jail cell... or
if he should be struck by a bolt of lightning - then I'm going to blame some of the
people in the Clinton campaign; and that I do not forgive.
Don’t know about cable, but nothing of this is on broadcast tv in my area - and I get 11 channels. Gee wonder why?
Boy, you're sneaky, Mr. Hsu!
Are you really just a shadow
donor of some people who
may be crazy commie Chi's
They aren't ordinary guys!
Don't you know you broke the rules?
Can you hear me, mister? (Hsu)
I’d be on the lookout for Arkancide.
