FILE - In this Dec. 10, 2015 file photo more than 500 bottles of counterfeit and unsellable wine are destroyed at the Texas Disposal Systems recycling and compost facility in Austin, Texas. The wine is from the Rudy Kurniawan case, the man convicted of fraud in federal court in 2013 for producing and selling millions of dollars of counterfeit wine. Kurniawan, who bilked wine collectors out of millions by selling cheaper hooch he relabeled in his kitchen has been deported to his native Indonesia. U.S. immigration officials say Kurniawan was deported last week from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport to Tangerang City. (Rodolfo Gonzalez/Austin American-Statesman via AP,File)
