One stubborn old coot
He ain’t giving it up, people, he’d obviously rather die first.
A millionaire jailed for more than a decade for contempt in his divorce case continues to block efforts to trace his missing assets and should remain jailed, a three-judge panel ruled.
H. Beatty Chadwick, 68, is believed to hold the record for time served in a U.S. civil contempt case.
He was jailed in 1995 for allegedly hiding $2.5 million in overseas banks during a bitter divorce. Since then, a series of judges have told him he could go free once he tells the court what happened to the money, but Chadwick hasn’t budged, the judges said.
I thought I had blogged about this guy before, but a search turned up nothing. What a spiteful, ornery old bastard this guy is. Good for him. Don’t give that bitch a penny.
O.K., I have no idea if she’s a bitch or not. I’m just saying, if you do ten years over not splitting your alleged hidden money with your ex-wife, you should get to keep the money if you still have it. You should get immunity from future prosecution if you happen to turn up rich on a beach in Florida with a 22 year-old stripper named Sunshine who, coincidentally, has a flaming sun tattooed right above her ass-crack that makes a great target after doggie-style. Tramp stamp, y’all, aim for the center.
Plus you should be able to grudge-fuck your ex-wife once a year for every year you did time, or delegate a surrogate, like an old cell-mate, to do it for you if the idea repulses you too much.

Jailed for ten years over a CIVIL case about money.
Jesus. If you ever wanted to make a case for our justice system not being very just…

Or he is waiting for her to die first!
Something doesn’t sound right in this deal to me. The money sounds dirty and he won’t give it up, is she dies then he’s home free right.
