It's like something out of a movie. The conspiratorial IT guy, a staffer for a crooked - and disgraced - former DNC chair, has put his escape plan into motion. His affairs are in order, money has been wired overseas, his wife has already escaped to a third-world hellhole. Now, all he has to do is get through the airport. Once he's on the plane and the seatbelt light goes "ding," he's home free.
Then the feds show up and haul him away.
