I've come across a few people like this just at my airline and they all have the same type of stories-usually they're high level law enforcement and/or ex-military of some sort. They always know people really high up in the government to get them out of jams too. It's pretty comical
LOL! That is so true!. We have one who used to be a sniper, worked for the CIA (is apparently why he's at one of our bases that have no flying down to South America.......because there looking for him), was a sheriff for 15 years, is a knight, etc....etc! Oh....and as far as getting out of jams, he was in a german jail and was set free from some high ranking official. Was thanked for all his "years of service" apparently. By the way he was in jail for driving his new "beemer" he just picked up from the factory 180mph. You see they put a special chip in the computer for him that allows it to go that fast! F'ing toolbag!
