Norman Hsu is missing again along with his pass-port. After posting $2M bond last week, was ordered to surrender his pass-port at his bail reduction hearing this morning. He "missed" his court appearance this morning and a bench warrant was issued

Brosnahan said he didn't know if Hsu returned to his Manhattan condominium or stayed in California after his five-hour jail stint Friday when Hsu turned himself in. He was released from jail after posting $2 million bail, which a judge refused then to reduce to $1 million.

Prosecutors with the California Attorney General's office had agreed to the bail reduction because it would be used to reimburse the victims Hsu admitted swindling out of $1 million in the early 1990s.

"We did think that was enough," Deputy Attorney General Ralph Sivilla said outside court. Sivilla also said he was troubled that Hsu didn't turn in his passport.

merrie, Clinton is going to be so fun to watch. Like those fun 90's her ride is going make Bil look like a choir boy.

Believe me Dems in the know do not want Hillary to be the Dem frontrunner. But it may br too late to tun back now. wasn't that a song?
