This is weird. Thomas Kontogiannis, who has already admitted to bribing disgraced former Republican Congressman Randy "Duke" Cunningham was out on bail and money laundering, and as such he was not supposed to leave the country.
It turns out that he did leave the country, he went to a vacation resort in Greece, and the judge was ready to revoke bail and to lock him up, when an assistant U.S. Attorney said at a hearing this morning that the man's recent trip to Greece was at the direction of federal agents.
This is beyond weird.
I'm wondering if someone in the DoJ wanted to send Kontogiannis a message about not fingering too many Republicans, and thought that they could do so more easily in Greece.
