'Fat Leonard,' mastermind of Navy corruption scandal, flees house arrest

If so, he is likely forever beyond the reach of the United States.

No great loss, not like he has that much longer to live.

It appears he has been caught.

Good luck with extradition, though, since the U S doesn’t acknowledge Venezuela’s socialist government.

Thumbs up to Interpol for doing the heavy work of tracking him down.

UPDATE

As part of the exchange of a Venezuelan convict for 10 Americans, Venezuela also returned Fat Leonard, who is now back in United States custody.
