#1 Who's going to POST the bond? No bail bondsman I know. If I were Hsu, I think I would be very nervous accepting bond and walking out of custody. It seems to me there is a good chance he knows too much about powerful and dangerous people - and I am not (necessarily) referring to the campaign contribution recipients.

#2 I am not a lawyer, so can someone explain to me how a felon who has pled guilty, jumped bail, and has lots of money, is even given the consideration of bail? I mean, if you are arrested, you are considered innocent until proven guilty, and are entitled to bail. However, if you plead guilty, run away for years, and finally get caught, you aren't innocent any more.

#3 Why not set bail and follow whoever bails him? May lead to some organization that shouldn't even be giving money, like the ChiComs. But something tells me that the MSM will not follow this trail since it leads to you-know-where (Bill and Hill).

#5 The $5M bail is chump change for the PLA. Expect "The Hsu" to post the gift to Grand Junction, get into the back seat of a black limo with the Hanrahan suits, and be last seen driving into the sunset. Lot of desert between there and San Mateo....

If this guy is smart, he'll ask for protective custody and turn on his backers. Otherwise, he's a dead man.

Is there some scenario where we can have it both ways?

#8 Hsu! You're free to go. Somebody paid your bail.
What!
Hello, Norman.
Mr. Berger? What are you doing here?
Get in the car, Norman...
