I'd like to draw out a family tree. This is getting confusing to see who is related to who and who married / divorced who and how it is all related. I had a feeling right at the time of the family press conference that the family knew more than what was stated. JO seemed to be in too much of a trance and did not seem to have the appropriate emotional response like what RO had. I think they knew a lot more at the time of the press conference. I hope we will learn a lot more in the next week.
On another note, I went to high school with JN, the neighbour. His place was the last place on our bus route and he is still living at the same family farm. JN was 2 years younger than me, and no one from the property in question rode the bus with me during the time I rode the bus, so it means that DG would be at least 5 to 6 years older the JN. For that reason, I don't think it is unreasonable for them to have lived as neighbours for 40+ years and not really know DG, especially given JN's career and being on the road so much, and DG living in Vancouver for so many years. I have looked through all my high school year books and have found no reference to the G last name.
On the last thread, there was some mention about AL and his patent for some process in oil and gas and that another company has registered another patent based on AL's patent and since then AL has registered a couple of other patents. The basic theory being that there could be a dispute over the patent. I can't find reference to those patents again, but I was thinking if those patents have anything to do with what DG's business does and if there isn't something that might be linked between the patents and the businesses. The whole think about "following the money" always seems to be the reason for incidences like this, so could there be a link between the patents and businesses? Who ever posted about the patents, could you look into a possibility of a link?
