I hope he is under protected custody.

And doesn't pull a "Jim McDougal" while in prison!!!!!!

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

Who IS his lawyer? Seriously.

[gathersnomoss]

CBS will open their Evening News with this as the lead story....Yeah, sure....right!

Oh, this is not about a Bush donor....Never mind.

[NautiNurse]

Good news for Mr. Hsu. He can’t contract Arkancide from the safety of a prison cell.

Ask Jim McDougal. Oh, never mind. He's dead.

[Freedom2specul8]

I had no idea there would be that many results. BUT...how many people google that phrase besides those ‘few’ who are in the know?

[Freedom2specul8]

That was one of the reasons I didn’t contribute to the RNC...however, that changed when Gore ran.

[PGalt]

Hillary is probably singing this as we read...(music to read this thread by)...

Norman Hsu, Top Fundraiser for Hillary Clinton and Other Democrats, Indicted12.04.07: 6 counts of mail fraud, 6 counts of wire fraud and 3 counts of violating the Federal Election Campaign Act. If convicted, Hsu could face 20 years in prison on each fraud charge and five years on each campaign finance charge, as well as fines. Hsu is accused of cheating investors of at least $20 million and using some of the money to make illegal political donations. Hsu is also accused of violated federal campaign finance laws by making contributions to various political candidates in the names of others. The 15-count Manhattan Federal Court Grand Jury indictment follows similar charges filed in September, in a California case, that prompted Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton to return $850,000 in campaign contributions after initially refusing to do so. After an FBI investigation began the Clinton’s campaign reversed their position. Federal investigators are looking at numerous large donations allegedly donated by working class families to Hillary Clinton and other Democratic candidates. Prosecutors said investigators believe those families and addresses were a front for Hsu to get around campaign limits.
        In September, Hsu had been charged in California with one count of mail fraud, one count of wire fraud, and one count of violating campaign finance laws. He was arrested at a Grand Junction, Colorado hospital on September 6, after failing to appear at the California court hearing. Hsu had been wanted since 1992 after fleeing in the wake of another fraud scheme in which he was accused of bilking about $1 million from 20 investors. Hsu remains in a California jail on the separate fraud charges but is expected to be extradited to New York in the coming weeks. In addition to the indictments, New York prosecutors sought to seize all of Hsu's assets. Among the items specifically listed in the indictment was a saxophone autographed by former President Bill Clinton. Like Hillary Clinton, both Democrats President Bill Clinton and Vice President Al Gore had past problems with illegal contributions from Asians. – FlA

I think it’s time for her to return 1.2 mil to Peter Paul.

[flattorney]

Might need a SWOT analysis on this matter, i.e. Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats.

It’s not just Who is his lawyer—it’s Who IS Paying His Lawyer?????????

[FMBass]

“Flounder?”

Thanks, I was wondering where I picked up the phrase.

The lists of all the Democrats that got money from Hsu et. al. are posted on my FR "Straight Talk" page in the Hillary Clinton - Hsu section. It has been several month's since I've looked at them but if I recall correctly Joe had a number of donations from both Hsu and the Paw Family. Both lists are large and take a while to load so be patient.

[Eroteme]

Interesting how silent the Hsu team's gone. It's not like his big mouth attorney Broshnahan is camera shy or even needs any facts.

Granted, this is a NY GJ indictment and Broshnahan is the Cal case attorney. But since when has that stopped a camera whore looking to taint the jury pool and drum a little air time for himself? He hasn't said peep since Hsu was transferred from Denver.

Wish the federal case hadn't been brought in Clinton's back yard.

bump!
