It should be no surprise to anyone that the FBI has confirmed that the man who first came to public notice as Clark Rockefeller is actually a German immigrant named Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter.
Basically, the feds matched prints from immigration papers Gerhartsreiter filed in the 80s to prints left by 'Rockefeller' on a wineglass around the time he allegedly abducted his daughter, Reigh Boss, in July of this year.
Meanwhile, in Massachusetts, Gerhartsreiter's lawyer continues to float his client's defense that he can't remember much before 1993. Gerhartsreiter does seem to remember the couple to whose disappearance he's been linked, John and Linda Sohus, and he remembers living in their guesthouse under the pseudonym Christopher Chichester. But attorney Stephen Hrones insists Gerhartsreiter can't recall much more than that.
And the reason for the Chichester name? Hrones says Gerhartsreiter "was aspiring to be an actor" in California.
By the way -- as far as I can tell, I was the first to report the man's full name, Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter, and the fact that he was once married to an Amy Jersild, in Wisconsin. At the time I figured it was the man in custody, but couldn't say for sure. A few days later, Boston newspapers confirmed what I found in public records accessed through an online database.
Just saying.
I'm beginning to wonder who will write the script when this becomes a movie, or at the very least, a made-for-cable miniseries. [BBC NEWS | Americas]
