Pastures new? That sounds foreboding based on the comments I have read. No personal knowledge or experience of the man but sounds like should you be unlucky enough to shake his hand you should immediately count how many fingers you have left.
Though it make take many years people of that ilk normally get their comeuppance be it jail, loss of assets or if he rubs the wrong person up the wrong way being found in the boot of a burnt out car. Personally I prefer the burnt out car method for scumbags.
