They'll hang him for sure if he doesn't fess up to where the stash is. Ain't nothing like PO'd investors!!!
He's up shits creek without a paddle. I see a hefty sentence, simply because he fled. The idiot probably would've gotten a slap on the wrist with the dough he once had, as it being a white collar crime, a name attorney could've wrangled him a sweet deal, maybe a few years. Now, he's done.
