Apparently, the judge allowed Luna to bond out and he absconded to Puerto Rico. Luckily, the story doesn&#8217;t end there according to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wfaa.com\/story\/news\/crime\/2015\/04\/07\/hunt-for-man-accused-of-impersonating-seal-stretches-to-puerto-rico\/25434509\/\">WFAA<\/a>;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;That&#8217;s a touchy subject with a lot of us vets,&#8221; said Parker County Sheriff Larry Fowler on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>Sheriff Fowler asked Puerto Rico police for help. Monday night, he got word they had his man.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They wanted to know if we would extradite. They wanted to know in 10 minutes. They got their answer in eight,&#8221; Fowler grinned. &#8220;He couldn&#8217;t even shine the SEALs&#8217; boots, as far as I&#8217;m concerned.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Fowler&#8217;s service included duty aboard two aircraft carriers.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>The theft charge was only a misdemeanor. Jumping bond on the misdemeanor is a felony.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m going to bring him back \u2014 one way or the other,&#8221; Sheriff Fowler said. &#8220;He picked the wrong county, I&#8217;ll tell you that.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Luna was arrested last November when Texas Ranger Anthony Bradford, another veteran, set up a sting operation which tempted Luna to accept a  \u201cfirearm of appreciation\u201d from a local gun dealer for his pretend service as a SEAL and the Ranger arrested him after the &#8220;ceremony&#8221;. Hopefully, they won&#8217;t lose track of him again.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s refreshing to see our brother veterans in law enforcement taking out the trash.<\/p>\n<p>ABC News did a report on the case last night and talked to our buddy, Doug Sterner;<\/p>\n<p><iframe src='http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/video\/embed?id=30168441' width='500' height='300' scrolling='no' style='border:none;'><\/iframe><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/us\">ABC Breaking US News<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/us\/video\">US News Videos<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last year, we wrote about the Texas Rangers and their sting operation to catch Carlos Felipe &hellip; <a title=\"Carlos Felipe Luna-Gonzalez; phony SEAL captured again\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=59165\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Carlos Felipe Luna-Gonzalez; phony SEAL captured again<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":56356,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-59165","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-phony-soldiers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59165","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=59165"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59165\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/56356"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=59165"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=59165"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=59165"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
