Stanford Found ... in Virginia

Sir Allen was served today with papers in the SEC case somewhere in Virginia.

Late Update: They found him in the Fredericksburg, Virginia, area. He has surrendered his passport and retained DC criminal defense lawyer Brendan "I am not a potted plant" Sullivan as counsel, ABC reports.
