Leonard Francis, who has been under house arrest in San Diego for years, cut off his monitoring bracelet and left home Sunday, authorities say.
Both wars ended badly, with U.S. efforts in tatters. But they were worlds apart in who fought, how and what came of it.
A Pretrial Services officer making a routine check had showed up at the location at 11 a.m. — only to find no guard present. She did not receive word a guard was on site until 1:45 p.m., according to a court transcript of the hearing that was sealed for years before becoming public in January.Francis participated in the hearing by phone and was apologetic.
In the hearing, the judge ordered that a third guard be hired. Previously, two guards worked 12-hour shifts, according to the transcript. The court file gives no specific reason why the 375 pages of the hearing transcript were released. But it came a couple of months after the release of a podcast Francis recorded at the location about the scandal — apparently without Sammartino’s, or the government’s, knowledge.
