hdkane Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Never heard of the guy. I'm sure you may have searched for him, at this point. His family owned about 10 very large high rise buildings in NYC...he's a real character...disguising himself as a woman while on the run...check out the HBO documentary...you'll laugh at how the film makers finally get a confession from him...

spidermike007 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 The refreshing aspect of this story, is that occasionally, in the US, even the rich and well connected go to prison. Would someone like this EVER get convicted, and serve a seven year prison sentence in Thailand? I highly doubt it. Guys this rich seem to just buy their way out of trouble here. It is shameful. The authorities have alot of egg on their faces for allowing this to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
