Crockefeller Mystery Deepens

2008_08_crock.jpgAfter Clark Rockefeller abducted his daughter in Boston and went on the lam--through NYC-- for days, only to be found in Baltimore a week later, the mystery about who Rockefeller really is continues to rivet people. While he falsely claimed to be part of the famous clan, now it's suggested he might be a German national named Christian Gerhart Reiter. Reiter had stayed with a Connecticut family an exchange student in the 1970s (the family said he acted oddly). Rockefeller, who has not provided any passports or other information about his past (and claims not to remember anything before 1993), is also being questioned about the deaths of California newlyweds. A man named Christopher Chicester--who looks like Rockefeller--had been staying with them.

We have a regular Jason Bourne on our hands.

 

...except way uglier than Jason Bourne.

 

More Tom Ripley than Jason Bourne. Or are we just conflating all Matt Damon characters with each other.

 

Reiter had stayed with a Connecticut family an exchange student in the 1970s who acted oddly.

What does that mean???

 

Rockefeller....is also being questioned about the deaths of a California newlyweds.

Really? Deaths of a California newlyweds?

 

it means he was no matt damon. ha!

 

wow, I am really curious what this guys story is going to be

 

can't remember his life prior to 93? is he now going to claim he was in the '93 WTC attack? that would be rich!

 

What would be really funny is if this german dude they think he is turns out NOT to be him, and now everybody's dissed him and his average grades and snooty, weird behavior for all the world to read!
Hehehehe.
