Fugitive Democratic Fundraiser Norman Hsu Turns Self in to Police
Fox News/AP ^

Posted on 08/31/2007 9:32:18 AM PDT by B Knotts

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. — A top Democratic fundraiser wanted as a fugitive in California turned himself in Friday to face a grand theft charge.

A judge in San Mateo County Superior Court ordered Norman Hsu handcuffed and held on $2 million bond. A bail hearing was scheduled for Sept. 5, at which the judge will consider reducing his bail to $1 million.

Hsu appeared in court here Friday following reports that he had skipped his sentencing on a 1991 grand theft charge. In the ensuing years, he became a top donor to numerous Democratic candidates, including presidential contenders Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama.

I’m not generally a tin-foiler but part of me has this sneaking suspicion that the Craig story was known but held in reserve for such a time as deemed necessary. The cloud cover it offers on so many levels to so many democrats is just too stinking coincidental.

Agreed. I had the same thought.

An affliction ending in death as a result of association with the Clintons. Arkancide is marked by suspicions of suicide, even when victims are shot in the back multiple times.

Why is a guy who's been on the lam for years getting a bail hearing?!

Don't they have to have a bail hearing to deny him bail?

“Fugitive Democratic Fundraiser Turns Self in to Police”

To avoid Arkancide, no doubt. Now that he’s viewed as a liability to Hillary, he probably feels safer in the hands of the police than out in the world.

Bingo!

I believe this man will hang himself in his jail cell...

And the story will be that people of Asian heritage commit suicide when they have brought dishonor to themselves.

Has anyone checked out Paw Paw, Michigan?

The village of Paw Paw is referenced in the song “Paw Paw Negro Blowtorch” on Brian Eno’s first solo album Here Come the Warm Jets.

“Why is a guy who’s been on the lam for years getting a bail hearing?!”

Just a guess. Remember he has bought off crooks (I would say “politicians/perverts” but then I repeat myself) in high places.

Maybe now he is counting on them to solve this little troublesome problem.

A question I have:

It appears he has been laundering Chinese money to buy off politicians/perverts and other powerful people. Why did he not flee to Hong Kong?

Maybe he was assured and believed he would never be arrested, and this is the reason he did not return to Hong Kong where he would be safe?

If he stayed in the U.S., what plans does the PRC have to make sure he does not go to jail or testify for that matter?

What deals have our crooked, perverted politicians and other crooks made with the PRC?

There does not appear to be extradition treaties between the PRC and the U.S. Therefore, has he been assured (or believes) by the pay off to powerful crooks and perverts he will never see the inside of a slammer?

A thought for FReeper researchers: not only should the obvious parallels to Chinagate corruption be pursued, but it is quite a mystery how Hsu could be a felony fugitive all these years and yet enter and leave the USA (it’s been reported that he makes trips to the PRC, etc.). How did he have a passport, didn’t his fugitive status get entered into the NCIC, how can someone be on the lam from Calif. and have a valid passport, etc.?????? What have Calif. and the feds done in all these years to catch this fugitive from justice? Absolutely nothing???

Also, recall all the issues around ABLE DANGER and also Gorelick’s “wall” etc. Have the Clintonistas set things up to enable people like Hsu and all his contacts to stay beneath the “radar” of federal databases, etc.?????? There were indications that Chinagate had a lot to do with how and why the Clintonistas crippled the FBI and CIA and DIA....

Inquiring minds need to know!

"What deals have our crooked, perverted politicians and other crooks made with the PRC?"

This gets almost no play in the media. Why, exactly do communists endorse democrats? Castro, Chavez have nothing but positive things to say about Hillary. Just what is the PRC trying to gain? Pretty important question for the electorate, regardless of how insane the left is. Imagine some republican POTUS candidate that was bankrolled by some rightwing Austrian group. Wouldn't that be just a tiny bit suspicious?

Bush ‘can’t find Osama’ — but the Clintons can’t (won’t?) track crooked contributor.

He has to turn HIMSELF in. Or - did they ASK him to turn in? Not sure which is worse

I’m sure CNN & 60 Minutes will give us a full report
