 Norman Hsu didn't intend to skip Calif. court hearing
Disgraced Democratic fundraiser Norman Hsu intended to appear for a scheduled California court hearing but may have mistakenly boarded the wrong train because he was "sick and confused," his spokesman said. The explanation was the first given for Hsu's disappearance Sept. 5 as he was due in a Redwood City, Calif., courtroom over a 1991 grand theft conviction. He was arrested in Grand Junction the next day after he apparently fell ill on an eastbound Amtrak train and was hospitalized.

Hsu was expected to waive extradition at a hearing Wednesday in Grand Junction. After that, California officials would have 10 days to pick him up, said Mesa County sheriff's spokeswoman Heather Benjamin.
At the California hearing, Hsu had been expected to turn over his passport and ask a judge to cut in half the $2 million bail he posted last month when he turned himself in after spending 15 years on the lam from the theft conviction.
Hsu meant to attend that hearing, but may have accidentally boarded the Amtrak train headed out of state rather than a Bay Area Rapid Transit train, his spokesman Jason Booth said late Tuesday.
"That's what appears to be how it happened," Booth said. "He was disoriented at the time. ... We believe he suffered a psychological, mental, or physical breakdown. How that was caused I don't know. I'm not a doctor."
"Based on my communications with him ... he had all intentions of being in court and now he wants to go in and deal with this," Booth added.
