Thompson remains in jail without bond

| May 9, 2012

We talked about the arrest of Bobby Thompson who absconded with the donations made to his organization US Navy Veterans Association. He made an appearance in court yesterday, according to a link sent to us by Art, where the judge denied his bail because she wasn’t sure he’d be around for the next court date if she did;

Brad Tammaro, chief counsel to Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine, told the judge that Thompson was arrested with a suitcase full of phony IDs and apparently was planning to make more.

Without ties to the community and the possibility he may have access to the missing money, Thompson would be a risk to become a fugitive and should not be allowed to remain free pending trial, Tammaro said.

And we still don’t know his real name;

Authorities say they traced the name Bobby Thompson to a Choctaw man who worked for the Bureau of Indian Affairs and wasn’t connected to the charity case. Authorities say he had his identity stolen, including his Social Security number and date of birth.

The Bobby Thompson who was in court yesterday is also representing himself in the trial. I guess he has a strategy in which he doesn’t want to involve his attorney.

And how do you give bail to a guy who has no established positive identity?

Let him rot for what he did.

Choctaw man? Could there be an Elizabeth “Cherokee Liz” Warren connection?

This could reach the highest levels!!!

I wonder if they ever came up with his real name??

Somewhere, maybe, they will find his real name. However, because of the way the judicial process works, I do not think they can actually begin his trial without first establishing his identity.
