(Air America) Network's Former Chairman Is Missing (come out, come out wherever you are!)

The former chairman of Air America Radio, Evan Montvel Cohen - who former colleagues said engineered transfers of more than $800,000 to the liberal radio network from a boys and girls club in the Bronx - is missing, according to a lawyer who is trying to have him served with legal papers.

At least two people have said Mr. Cohen is in Hawaii. He has not responded to a series of e-mail messages in recent weeks from The New York Sun asking him about his role.

Mr. Cohen, 39, helped lead the launch of Air America in March 2004. Less than two months later, Piquant LLC acquired the radio network from Mr. Cohen's Progress Media. Piquant LLC has agreed to pay $875,000 to Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club, without interest, in installments over the next two years.

Mr. Cohen's long, mysterious absence cost him his seat on the board of directors of the National Cancer Center, a nonprofit group based on Long Island that has an annual budget of about $3.5 million and gives grants to cancer research projects.

A director doesn't usually have much chance to embezzle.

Perhaps not, but he's already done the equivalent as a director at Gloria Wise -- used his influence to generate a "loan" for another entity he controlled.

So, the man who is the link to the boys and girls club is missing?

Story evolving.

I was born and raised on Oahu.

Considering he's a lib and likes to commit fraud, my bet he's currently using some of those funds meant for Cancer research for lap dances at Club Femme Nu located on Kapiolani Street.

Send Dog the bounty hunter there right now.

This article contradicts another article I read about Evan. That article said that Evan claimed that it was his dad who had cancer, but his dad had actually died years ago. I don't get it.
