Case Details: Billie Jean Garman is wanted by U.S. authorities for financial crimes that cost American investors and the U.S. government millions of dollars. In 1986, Garman and her son, Robert Corson, purchased a federally insured savings and loan bank in Houston, Texas. In less than three months, they had made more than forty million dollars¦ worth of illegal and unsecured loans. The bank soon failed. Garman and Corson were indicted in November 1992 on charges of conspiracy, bank fraud, money laundering, interstate transportation of stolen property, and income tax evasion. Corson died of a heart attack soon after his indictment. Garman failed to appear for trial in February 1993. She is believed to have fled U.S. jurisdiction.
