The WSJ reported that the courts have decided that Allen Stanford needs to remain in jail until his court case is completed. The judge said:"Stanford is a serious flight risk and there is no condition or combination of conditions of pretrial release that will reasonably assure his appearance as required for trial."Apparently, evidence was presented to the judge that Stanford had a friend get his Antigua passport and bring it to him in Houston and that he had withdrawn $100 million from a Swiss bank account.
