Red Bull Heir Arrested

Remember the 'Panama Papers' It was a laundry list of companies that were hiding money in offshore accounts. They talked about the whose who of global money laundering.

The Yoovidhya Companies were one of the conglomerates that Mossack Fonseca’s firm worried about. Way back in 2010 there was a growing paper trail that pointed to some shady business. Yoovidhya is listed as a co-founder of the popular energy drink 'Red Bull'.

They have made billions on top of billions of dollars from this product. Apparently they have not reported all the income to the Thai, and American Governments. Even with the exposure of the Panama Papers release, The Yoovidhya Companies survived and still did good business.

Now, however their secrets are being told all over again. The CEO's son, Vorayuth 'Boss' Yoovidhya hit a motorcycle cop and killed him five years ago. They say he fled, on his private jet, to Singapore.

Then he traveled the world as a fugitive from justice and ended up in a London Condo. It was his parents London Condo. It was one that was not listed as an asset in any of their financial statements.

Apparently the Yoovidhya family has tons of assets like these all over the world. They have mansions, Condo's, luxury cars, and private jets that their tax returns don't show. This would all be still a secret if it wasn't for this recent arrest.

The Thai Government was forced to dig through the paper trail while searching for Vorayuth. 120 Facebook and Instagram posts between the Suspect, his family, and his friends also aided in the authorities finally showing up at his London Condo. I know, I know its hard to believe but thats how they found him.

Here in the States we list that under 'Dumb Criminals'. You know, people who can't stay off Instagram and Facebook, even though the cops are looking for them. We had one here in Jacksonville, Fl. recently.

The kid was flashing thousands of dollars on Facebook Live just as S.W.A.T. kicked his door in. This is basically what Vorayuth was doing also... dumb huh...? Well anyway this international case opened the door once again to the Panama Papers and their accusations.

How did Vorayuth get away? ...On his private jet. Why isn't the jet listed as being owned by his family or their company?

Where is Vorayuth geting money from to live off off while hes on the run? ...He is being issued cash disbursments from a offshore shell company. Why isn't this company listed as being owned by his father or his father's company?

Where is Vorayuth hiding? ...He is at his father's London Condo. Why isn't this Condo listed as a asset under his fathers name?

These were just a few of the questions that the authorities were forced to ask. They shocked themselves at the answers they came up with. Now it looks like Yoovidhya Companies have moved billions of dollars offshore over the years to avoid paying taxes.

I wonder how they are going to explain this. Or better yet, what is Vorayuth Yoovidhya's defense going to sound like. The only defense I have heard of that matches this is the 'Affluenza Defense'.

You may remember this as the defense used by a Texas Teen that killed four people in a drunken driving accident. His wealthy parents argued that he had led a sheltered, privledged life. He would be utterly destroyed by legnthy jail time.

It worked too. He was sentenced to 10 years probation instead of life imprisonment. The problem was that his freedom uterly destroyed him. He was re charged after failing drug test administered by his probation officer.

Thats really dumb huh...? Well anyway, I doubt very seriously they have laws like that in Thailand. As a matter of fact their court system is probubly more severe.

They might cut this guys hands off or something like that. ...And even if he was to get a light sentence, what about all that #$krilla Daddy Warbucks hid off shore? Yeah, they're going to want a peice of that.

The inmates are really going to want a peice of this jet-set-prettyboy, too. Dude... Don't drop the soap! You may become the victim of a hit and run yourself.

Truthfully though, I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. I hope that cops family can finally get closure and peice of mind now that this is comming out. I guess Red Bull really does give you wings.
