Where in the World is Alan Stanford?

yesterday there were articles saying Stanford had disappeared, then there was a story that he was found trying to board a plane and skedaddle out of the country.

This morning there are stories that he's disappeared.

hence my question - Where in the World is Alan Stanford?

3. did some more digging

seems his credit card was declined at houston airport when he tried to charter a private plane. This tipped off authorities, when they arrived - Stanford had disappeared.

he's on the run, gone to ground, crawled into a hole somewhere..... and the HUNT is on

6. Houston airport people are serious

When his credit card was declined, they should have led him on - allowed him to board the aircraft and kept him waiting until authorities arrived. I would start the search in Delay's basement.

7. Even Better...What Happens When He Shows Up In Aruba

Just like a teevee mystery...ya know that sooner or later, he's gonna want to go for his gold...just like a pirate returning to dig up his treasure. Me thinks by now "Sir" Allen is probably wearing a peon's dress sneaking across the Rio Grande or Sonoran Desert and will end up on Aruba (with or without Natalie Holloway...insert your own punchline here).

From what I've been reading, this guy went MIA when the stories about his ponzi scheme broke last week. This guy sounds like the type who spent his money for a rainy day and is now gonna collect some IOUs. Any bets he shows up drinking martinis with Mugabe?
