Mary's spokesman Pete Smarr told the Daily News, "Norman Hsu was traveling on an Amtrak train when he became ill. Amtrak personnel called an ambulance when the train stopped in Grand Junction and had him transferred to St. A spokesman for Hsu seemed suprised by news of the arrest last night. "I haven't been in contact with him for a couple of days," said spokesman Jason Booth. Hsu had been scheduled to appear in a San Francisco court Wednesday to turn over his passport and ask a judge to halve the $2 million bail he posted last week. That's when he had finally turned himself in after spending 15 years ducking sentencing on a felony theft conviction. But Hsu failed to show up at the bail reduction hearing and a judge issued an arrest warrant for him. California attorney general spokesman Gareth Lacy said Hsu's lawyers had told prosecutors Hsu arrived by charter jet at the Oakland airport about 5:30 am Wednesday local time and then vanished.

I believe that "fair", "good", "stable", "critical", et al have fairly well-defined boundaries, and my dim recollection of reading about car accidents &c over the years is that "fair" is a whole lot less good than "good".
View Replies To: Ernest_at_the_Beach Just a silly question, I suppose, but why would they be having a bail reduction hearing for a fugitive who has been on the lam for 15 stinkin years?
View Replies To: Ernest_at_the_Beach I thought for sure he'd been "Fostered" by the Klintonistas. Maybe he needs to be on suicide watch when they send him back to jail awating trial. We wouldn't want him to mysteriously "hang himself" in his jail cell.
The announcement from Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell comes a day after the fundraiser, Norman Hsu, skipped a bail hearing, prompting a judge in California to issue a new warrant for his arrest. Last week, Rendell had said he planned to keep the nearly $40,000 he got from Hsu who was already wanted for failing to appear for sentencing on a 1991 grand theft charge. Rendell said he would return the money if prosecutors won a "sustainable conviction" in the case. He now says although Hsu is still a friend of his, his "failure to appear casts a new light" on the original case.

Hsu was charged with running a ponzi scheme, telling investors he sold latex gloves manufactured in Asia, imported by a company called "Just Gloves" with offices on the Peninsula. Hsu said his company "Unigoal" operated from an apartment on Second Avenue in San Mateo. State prosecutors say Hsu ultimately bilked investors out of a million dollars.

Disgraced political fund-raiser Norman Hsu - a major donor for Hillary Rodham Clinton and other Democrats - was a wanted man again after he failed to show up for court yesterday, and a judge issued a new warrant for his arrest. Hsu, whose criminal past has roiled the campaigns of presidential candidates, was scheduled to 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, San Mateo Superior Court Judge Robert Foiles ordered Hsu's bail forfeited to the county and issued a new arrest warrant.
com), who delved into public records and crunched the numbers, Clinton took the lion's share of political cash ($174,000) from Hsu and his network of suspected donor-bundlers whose campaign checks dwarfed their income. New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo and New York Governor (and former Attorney General) Eliot Spitzer accepted the largest sums of direct cash from Hsu. Of the 32 organizations that took money from Hsu and his associates, 10 were state Democratic parties and several others were Democratic campaign committees. The 84 individuals who received money from Hsu and his associates included 17 Gubernatorial candidates, 17 Congressional candidates, 27 Senatorial candidates, and a variety of statewide and local candidates. All were Democrats, with the exception of Tom Gallagher, Florida's former CFO and an unsuccessful primary challenger to Charlie Crist in the 2006 Governor race. Including candidate-specific PACs, these individuals have taken just over $1 million from Hsu's group since the 2004 cycle. Another 22 organizations received support from Hsu's network since 2004, primarily Democratic campaign committees and state Democratic parties."

View Replies To: Ernest_at_the_Beach Has anyone noticed that the media is portarying Hsu as a "Democratic fundraiser"? I'm sure that they would like to portray him as a Republican fundraiser but they know that won't fly. So, someone in the DNC is going to have to take the hit' on this one because the Clintons aren't going to.
He gave the same amount to district attorney Kamala Harris. Harris's spokesperson says she'll give all that money to charity. "Mr Hsu has pledged to deal forthrightly with this 15-year-old legal issue." Hsu's attorney says in this statement, his client learned about the bench warrant from a newspaper reporter. His attorney also says in a published report, Hsu thought he had resolved the grand theft case, as demonstrated by the fact that he's lived a very public life.

View Replies To: Ernest_at_the_Beach Here's something new from the AP: >>Hsu was listed in fair condition, hospital vice president Dan Prinster said in a telephone interview. He declined to provide details of Hsu's ailment, other than to say that Hsu "was delirious (when he arrived) and had identification."
