http://www.tampabay.com/news/business/fugitive-sham-veterans-charity-creator-bobby-thompson-may-be-hiding-out-in/1213210"The fugitive known as Bobby Thompson, who ran a sham veterans' charity out of a run-down duplex in Tampa then disappeared when prosecutors closed in, may be hiding out in New Mexico.
In a press release Tuesday afternoon, the U.S. Marshals Service said the agency's investigation indicates that Thompson, founder of the U.S. Navy Veterans Association, may have lived in that state and had "specific knowledge" of the Albuquerque area.

(16,161 posts)4. man, this guy is almost the ultimate scammer,
he had his pic taken with * and a lot of the puke powers, but no body claims to know his real name.
He donated in the USNVA name to alot of repubs then one day, he walked away. No one knows how much
cash he had in his pockets.
Look to the Saint Petersburg Times for more information, the papers' name has changed to Tampa Bay Times but
it is still researchable.
