Australia Australia - Marion Barter - Missing After Trip to UK - June 1997 #23

[Lord Peter Flimsy]

See Joni has put a call out on the fb page? Asking for everyone’s theories on why Marion changed her name…

Some question over whether she actually knew her name had been changed. When her new passport application (under Florabella) was witnessed by the dentist in Brisbane in May 1997 he couldn’t categorically confirm he actually saw her. He could only confirm she had been a patient in the last 3 years. He just signed off numerous requests like these. Could anyone have turned up and handed it in and collected it?

Agree, when other known factors are taken into account too. Like filling out others paperwork at airports, keeping others important documents for safe keeping, going to extraordinary lengths for deception. Could ‘smoke and mirrors’ routines, along with coercive control techniques, have meant Marion didn’t know of name change?

She got on a plane with that passport.
