Nathan Jacobson: Southern District Of California

Jacobson Dept: Judge Irma Gonzalez, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California, in San Diego, issued the warrant after Nathan Jacobson failed to show up for a sentencing hearing, according to Montreal Gazette. Jacobson has offices and homes in Toronto and Israel. He pleaded guilty in May 7, 2008, to conspiracy to commit money laundering, according to U.S. attorney Phil Halpern in San Diego, but the plea has been sealed since then and an American judge issued an arrest warrant Monday for a Canadian businessman over his role in an illegal Internet pharmacy operation. Jacobson, who grew up in Winnipeg and frequently hobnobs with senior Canadian politicians, was to be sentenced for conspiring to commit money-laundering. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
