But look what the Nazis did!” Roman must have called called All Star Bail Bonds (he probably heard the commercial on any radio station that plays Cam’Ron) because he’s getting sprung from the Swiss clink he’s called home since getting pinched. He’s been moved to an undisclosed location, and is expected to be released on...
