Arrested in Bali, Indonesia, four months ago, Pearlman, 53, is being held in Orlando without bail on federal charges of bank fraud. His trial is scheduled for March, but could be delayed since investigators are working on additional charges related to a $317-million investment scheme run by Pearlman's company, Trans Continental Airlines.
His 8-by-16-foot cell, which ordinarily would house two inmates, is furnished with bunk beds, a toilet and sink. He eats kosher meals, which he described as TV-dinner type meals that are better than regular jail fare.
Like O.J. Simpson, Pearlman says he wants to find the real perpetrators of the crimes he has been accused of committing.
Vanity Fair published a report claiming Pearlman was a sexual predator who took advantage of the teenage boys in his bands.
This jerk is a first cousin of singer Art Garfunkel.

Until he fled the country in January, accused of embezzling more than $300 million, Lou Pearlman was famous as the impresario behind the Backstreet Boys and 'NSync. Turns out his investors weren't the only victims, colleagues reveal: Pearlman's passion for boy bands was also a passion for boys.
