I don’t think Luxembourg is on the Sally-Joni World Whirlwind Tour. pity. Might have been interesting to chat with MC over a cup of tea.

Why couldn’t it be somewhere in between? MB does return but is killed earlier than October. Marion starts withdrawals (and sets precedence of them) but DdH finishes them in a big hat with a flower behind her ear?

So good to have Sally’s direct commentary on these timelines.

And Laura Richards, who I admit can go on and on but from righteous anger and vast police experience, outlined more than FORTY pieces of circumstantial evidence against RB — more than enough in her experience to take him to trial.

Most recent episode on CRIME ANALYST with Sally and Joni has more on this topic, regarding the police inactivity, who is above them (Attorney General), and the upcoming trip to Japan, England, Amsterdam. Also makes clear Sal’s disappointment in Coroner’s findings. Very heartfelt episode...

Sadly, you can't MAKE a department investigate a case. I've watched too many true crime documentaries to know that. The case just sits there until someone comes along who cares. The whole thing feels misogynistic -- since the coroner, Sally, and the victims are all women. In the first...

apropos of nothing: I started following another missing person case on Websleuths. The family has not consistently pushed and hammered police. (complicated because M.P. did not vanish at home but in another state.) What I now know to be true is if no one agitates in a cold case NON-STOP --...

It is my understanding that the coming trip to Japan is to research as many documents as possible with death certificate in hand. Two, part of the issue has been the language barrier and lack of documents online. So the idea is to speak to people in person with an interpreter.

ooops. DP.

From another post on Instagram Sally L shares an intriguing odd coincidence. She recently discovered that the serving platter Marion had given her for an engagement gift is from NIKKO Fine China, Japan. Eerily similar to the name Hotel Nikko Narita. A sign? A clue? When you're slogging...

Hey, all you lovely people. . . New episode up on CRIME ANALYST with Laura Richards, Joanie, and Sally to analyze the Coroner's findings. Announcement posted on the Marion Barter Instagram account run by Sally. FWIW

I have always felt MC is not being honest about all she knows.

@mishy66 — wasn’t The Thief Collector mind-blowing? Not to mention the possibility of murder(s)??!! And the carefully chosen remote location in which the Alters lived — on purpose. It shows that the evil that is RB is not a one-off. FWIW an online sleuth is working to find more art stolen by...

Lots of good food for thought, @KathPlumber. The 1980s-90s must have been rife with that kind of theft with no repercussions. I vaguely remember from that time reading about wealthy people abroad (I'm in US; Japan was mentioned and the Middle East) who would pay for treasures and didn't care...

One more stray thought: In The Pigeon Tunnel, a doc on writer John Le Carre (David Cornwell), the writer discusses his con-artist, fraudster father. Cornwell talks of the adrenaline rush of his father's “self-imposed schizophrenia.” That the father LOVED the madness and chaos of appearing...

Self-publishing is also known as an act of vanity. So I can see this book as a lark spearheaded by RB, his daughter, and their Bali buddies. (a reader, a proofreader, a hostess, etc) This jives with criminals who can’t stand the world not knowing how smart they are. It also jives with the...

Thank you, @KathPlumber!!! I watch every true crime doc and listen to podcasts regularly. I can’t believe “The Thief Collector” slipped past me— especially since I live in New Mexico and have driven through the Alter’s remote home location. The correlation with this case of a man who committed...

You would think the Police Department would want to step up and make an effort to remake their image by actively pursuing Marion's case. Sadly, humans can be jerks and it may be that their retaliation for being called out by the coroner is to dig in heels and not be of help.

Earlier in this thread, someone recommended the documentary "The Thief Collector." I watched it last night, and it really creeped me out. I watch and listen to a lot of true crime, but this story takes the cake. I don't want to give away too much, but one of the creepiest things is a book of...

Even if AB can be connected to RB, does it lead to Marion? He's admitted to conning women, going to Bali, being a dirtbag, so it's an amazing connection to those things but still not closer to the truth about Marion Barter unless she met her demise in Bali or someone there knows more about Mr...
