DOJ: Gregory Bell a Flight Risk

John Welbes PiPress:

As a hedge fund executive tied to the Tom Petters fraud case awaits a court hearing today in St. Paul, U.S. prosecutors describe him as a flight risk with millions of dollars in off-shore accounts, including the Cook Islands and Switzerland.

In August 2008, Bell wired $15 million from an account in the U.S. into a Swiss bank account, the prosecutors' filing says.


UPDATE: Bell free on bail.

UPDATE: Held awaiting appeal.
