He fled the country after investigators started looking at him. Turns out he had at least 4 people murdered and was selling assault rifles bulk on the black market, in bed with the mafia, and laundering money from his legal business. He made more money by dumb luck fleeing (6 million cash into Bitcoin when it was around $2,000) than he did in all the crimes he committed here at home. Active investigation. He is now in a country that does not extradite and bought citizenship. Fled with his wife 30 years his junior. I looked up to him, he was family. No idea why someone who had everything and would have been a multi millionaire without needing to do anything like this would do this. I had panic attacks about the FBI showing up to question me so bad that I left the country and stayed down in Mexico for 3 months to let things blow over and let them question everyone else first. No one has been charged yet, and it is ongoing
