But they found him.
And Patrick fled some more.
Six weeks later, a fortune was stolen from his ex-law firm\'s offshore account.
Then he fled.
From a short distance away, Patrick watched his own burial.
When he was buried his casket held nothing more than his ashes.
Then one cold winter night Patrick was trapped in a burning car and died a horrible death.
He had a pretty wife, a new daughter, and a bright future.
