Whereabouts still unknown, his girlfriend was captured in the Charlotte airport last year as she was between flights and ready to board one, nothing more heard about her since.
GOP supporter: Records show that Bobby Charles Thompson, pictured with George W. Bush, gave largely to Republican causes
2nd May 2011 - A man who headed a fundraising group for U.S. Navy veterans has been charged with aggravated theft, money laundering, identity fraud and corruption.
Bobby Charles Thompson, who gave himself the rank of lieutenant commander, ran the nationwide non-profit group the U.S. Navy Veterans Association.
Donations solicited by telemarketers poured into the organisation from around the country, mostly individual gifts under $50.
High profile names: Thompson with Sen. John McCain and Cindy McCain, far right
They amounted to tens of millions of dollars intended for veterans' needs and other military causes.
Thompson and NAVPAC, his political action committee, gave lavishly to more than 50 candidates in 16 states — most of them Republicans, records show.
The money gave him direct access to some of the leading politicians in America.
He has been pictured alongside former President George W. Bush, his adviser Karl Rove, former presidential candidate Senator John McCain and several others.
In all the photos he is seen smiling broadly through an unkempt black beard and moustache.
The charges against him were filed in Ohio where authorities say he donated nearly $300,000 to political causes. {continued}
This scumbag was playin with the very high rollers in this country and none of them saw fit to check out who he was or asked about the huge contributions, rove and company apparently play that if you got the cash that's fine with them, no questions asked!!!!!
