Thanks for this! So I understand all these “arrest” chapters of the timeline means he has to turn himself in and post bail. My question is how is a person of his status and money, and access to private jets not a flight risk? He has too much business here to not flee the U.S.?
I’d think the moment the writing was on the wall that he had no chance to win the case he’d be on a plane to somewhere. Fortunately he’s too stubborn to think he’ll ever loose.
But unlike us common folk, it’s not like they’d cuff him immediately after the trial. Odds are he’d be given a few weeks/months to put his affairs in order then surrender himself. What’s to stop him from fleeing short of a 3 letter agency keeping intel and actively intervening… if they figure it out in time.
That’s you but there are plenty of us where the novelty of binge drinking got immature fast. Don’t get me wrong, I partied in my 20s but the way I carried myself when drunk, the dumb shit I did, the after effects of the hangover… definitely gets old. (If I could go back I think of would have impressed far more people, and more girls, had I not had a goal to get shitfaced with everyone and I don’t even consider myself a sloppy drunk.)
Also, at a certain age I think a lot of people realize that your drinking buddies are not necessarily your friends. When drinking is removed as your common activity it surprising how little you have in common with some people and who is really willing to stick their neck out for you in a time of need.
As a parent, my goal is to never let my kids see me drunk/buzzed. I want them to know they can always depend on me, and that I’m always clear headed and in a mental state to provide whatever might be needed (unexpected trip to the ER anyone?). Always on duty.
