Hsu Roundup: Out of Hospital; $4 Million Bail; A Suicide Note; Other Campaigns React (UPDATE)

Bump and Update: Bond was set at $5 million after the DA asked for $50 million! Citing Hsu's mysterious illness (which I think may be related to a suicide attempt), Hsu's local lawyer got the judge down to $5 million.

Hsu will waive extradition as soon as transportation to California is arranged.

Original Post:

Plenty of Norman Hsu news this morning.

First, he's been transfered from St. Mary's Hospital in Grand Junction to the Mesa County Jail. At his arraignment tomorrow, the DA will ask for at least a $4 million bond. I assume that the judge will also be collecting his passport.

Next, the Wall Street Journal reports that Hsu sent a suicide note by FedEx to several people and organizations, including the Innocence Project which immediately contacted the California Attorney General. Apparently, the note was sent the same morning that Hsu decided to go to the train station instead of the courthouse.

Perhaps this explains Hsu's condition on the train.

Third, the other campaigns are reacting to Clinton's (alleged) return of bundled donations. As I predicted on Sunday, the other campaigns are following Clinton's lead on this. Each is inspecting its contributions to weed out bundled donations with a Hsu connection.

And finally, we know that the Clinton campaign wasn't too competent when it came to checking Hsu before he gave them money. It looks like they're taking extra special care before they have to give money back:

Clinton's staff spent Tuesday rechecking records to ensure that all of those on the initial list of Hsu's 260 contributors were in fact questionable donations that needed to be returned. "It's possible that the number will shrink," Wolfson said.

More: I hadn't heard this before, but apparently Hsu tried to blame the Obama campaign for the WSJ stories which started this whole thing:

Hsu contended that those articles were planted "by a politician who pledged 'hope and change' " -- an apparent reference to Sen. Barack Obama, Clinton's main rival for the Democratic presidential nomination.

An Obama spokesman called Hsu's claim "sad and baseless."

2 Heh, whoops, our little honest mistake on taking in that money; staff didn't know what to do, could happen to anybody, our candidate was completely out of the loop on this, and boy, is she mad at us! Guess we'll give the money to some worthy cause, seeing as how we're good people, with nothing to hide, and this really doesn't have anything to do with the Chinese, at least, according to Sandy, and he should know...

I shouldn't be surprised at my own reaction- it's the Clintons after all- but I was relieved to hear that Hillary's camp was dealing with mere domestic thugs of Asian background, rather than full-fledged agents of red China, like WJC did in the 1990's.

Posted by: ATNorth at September 13, 2007 10:15 AM (/HWA9)

Whaaat? Not all Democrats are happy to fall in line behind Hillary, and will spread rumors and otherwise semi-secretly try to torpedo her campaign?

Naaaaaaaaaaah. She's inevitable, remember? I'm sure this will all blow over soon and not get reported at all.

5 What's with this "at least $4 million bond" bullshit? The dude's proven that he's a flight risk, why is this even being contemplated. If you or I had skipped bail, they'd zip-tie us to our prison bunks.

6 That is not my handwriting on his suicide notes! Anyone could have gotten a hold of my personal stationery and used my suicide note autopen! Besides, I'm not the only person who dots their "i"s with a skull and crossbones! And someone stole my fingerprints, so when if you find them on the notes, I'm being framed by Obama! You know how those coloreds are....

Posted by: Hillary Clinton at September 13, 2007 10:38 AM (tcMQZ)

7 When you are on the sh*t list of both the Chinese gov't AND the Clinton's, suicide is probably the only way out. Of course, it's possible the 'suicide note' was fabricated by a Clinton or Chinese operative in order to cover up something before it happened. Just my conspiracy theory thought for the day....

8 I'd say that Mr. Hsu is vely rucky to be arive. He'll have to be even luckier to continue so.

Posted by: Sticky B at September 13, 2007 10:46 AM (BPyRF)

9 Actually, let me correct myself. I guess Hsu isn't necessarily on a sh*t list. It's more like if the Chinese and the Clintons want to disavow any association with you, then your options become very limited; akin to trying to leave the mob or a gang.

Posted by: Brian at September 13, 2007 10:49 AM (c5Wb+)

10 He is being released on a bail again? WTF? The reds or the Clintons can easily pay the bond, get him out, and put him in a concrete mixer instead of an Amtrak this time.

Posted by: Tushar D at September 13, 2007 10:52 AM (IlgNp)

11 Let's assume the best case scenario for the Clintons: no PRC connection, no backdoor contributions designed to be written off as "business losses."

That leaves us with "Clinton accepts money from con-man."

You know, all those laws limiting contributions, and no one thought to include a background check? Hey, you need one to buy a gun, but not to buy a politicican?

Posted by: Aaron at September 13, 2007 11:07 AM (Uaw64)

15 Personal to Hillary Clinton:

Not to worry, my dearest friend. $4million dollars is meaningless to us. All we need is to make another deal with Wal-Mart (thanks for your help there too, btw) and we'll have that back in our pockets in no time.

Therefore, we are in full agreement with your plan to assist Mr. Hsu with his upcoming "visit" to the "park."

XOXOXO

Your friends,

Posted by: The PRC at September 13, 2007 11:12 AM (wWwJR)

16 illtemperedcur Well, I'd guess that CA is quite pleased to have that cool $2 million cash from his first bail jump. I know they would be even more pleased to have $4 million. I said it last week, CA has an awful lot of illegals to take care of, right?

Posted by: funky chicken at September 13, 2007 11:13 AM (I+jPP)

Oh Aaron, you're entirely too kind to Hillary! and her "friends" here:

Let's assume the best case scenario for the Clintons: no PRC connection, no backdoor contributions designed to be written off as "business losses."

Posted by: funky chicken at September 13, 2007 11:20 AM (I+jPP)

The only real question for me is will the Bush administration help Hillary! and our "good friends" in the PRC and on Wall Street bury the connections.

Posted by: funky chicken at September 13, 2007 11:21 AM (I+jPP)

19 He is probably lucky to be in Grand Junction. Those motherfuckers are pretty law and order and will probably keep his Chinese ass alive longer than if he was found in California or NY.

Grand Junction is not a bad place to be.

20 Fantasy Journalist League - my NYT journy asks this question: Mrs. President will you be giving Mr. Hsu a full pardon?

Bonus question - Will Sandy Berger remain head of the national archives beyond your first term?

Posted by: 13times at September 13, 2007 12:11 PM (CnivD)

21 Seriously, though, even in the best case scenario she's taking funds from a con man. No need to imagine the PRC involved or that he was going to be whacked. Let that stuff come with more evidence. At least keep these ideas in the comments section, eh?

Obama must be really hurting to have to pull out the big guns.

Posted by: Aaron at September 13, 2007 12:27 PM (Uaw64)

Where's the polonium? He has to die under mysterious circumstances, and who better to blame than the Russians?

Seriously, what kind of legal genius lets a guy accused of embezzling 40 million go on 4 million bail? After 2 million bail didn't even slow him down?

I'll bet he still has his passport.

Posted by: MarkD at September 13, 2007 12:50 PM (MMy4A)

23 I'm beginning to think they are using this guy as a fund raiser. Sure, he'll skip bond, but then they get to keep the bail. Put a huge amount up and presto! Lots of cash for the government!

Ahhhh. A little of the 'ol political Hsu-Jitsu.

Posted by: Warden at September 14, 2007 12:52 AM (rZ5uY)

28 So, will CA get the bail money or CO? I'm thinking it would be cheaper to get a fine, upstanding, politically concerned member of the CA prison population to kill Mr. Hsu than fronting for his $5 million bail, unless Hillary! or the PRC want to make sure the job is done right this time.

Posted by: funky chicken at September 14, 2007 10:08 AM (I+jPP)

29 Ahhhh. A little of the 'ol political Hsu-Jitsu.

Sure, he's got to distract attention away from the Clintons, although if the Chinese were smart they'd realize Obama would be a good friend too.

Thanks for being a great company.Although your ugg boots cardy website is entered by users, the site has a lot of accurate and useful information on it.your net shop is kept to a minimum and favours websites connected to the ugg cardy boots Web Design Library in appearance and subject.
The popular blue ugg is renowned for its comfort. But some doctors worry that the popular black ugg could cause serious foot pain in the long run.So some podiatrists across the country are telling ugg classic cardy lovers to watch their steps. In fact,there is nothing wrong!
The crochet boots online retailer also knows bargain-hungry shoppers are scouring the Web for discounts, and its UGG Classic Crochet rivals are more than happy to provide them. So it is putting coupon codes on ugg classic crochet that customers can use to save money on its site.

77 Factors Replica Watches About The Rolex replica watches Oyster The Oyster is so closely get in touch with Rolex, and it is inevitably that some people think these are the only Replica watches Rolex manufacture. Others suppose that there is a single Oyster watch. But as a matter of fact, the name Oyster does not actually meant for a rolex Watches particular watch you can buy rolex watches or even to a series but to a type of case that available in some of the Rolex ranges. History The Oyster case was first released in 1926. The objective was to protect the workings of the watch from dust and moisture. Early watches were far from waterproof. The Oyster tag heuer Watchescase was an tag heuer watches innovative design to eliminate these problems. It had a new double locking crown that screwed into place. It has been compared to the hatch on a submarine. Like a submarine, the Oyster case was waterproof. In 1927 Mercedes Gleitze swam the English breitling Watches Channel breitling watches . Before she set off she was presented with a Rolex Oyster. When she arrived, the watch was still working perfectly. The resulting publicity gave the new case a massive boost. Why is it called Oyster? Legend has it that Hans cartier Watches Wilsdorf cartier watches, who invented the Oyster, chose the name because the new case reminded him of the difficulty he had experienced prising open oysters at dinner. Since then the Oyster has further, particularly advanced.
