It is an amazing story in how it has been kept off the front pages and not on ABCNNBCBS.

The fact that this story has been avoided like a plague bearer by the left wing mediots says that there is something significant here besides the incredible amount of 8 billion $'s being muled around Europe by Don Johnson.

As I recall, no charges were filed against Johnson by the Germans. The cover story was that Johnson is married to a very wealthy woman, and it is not illegal under German law to be carrying large sums in various securities, etc. (The implication being that if it was all cash, the Germans might have looked more closely.) Johnson was even on Larry King one night explaining himself. Don't know what he said, because I only tuned in for a fraction of a minute.
