    A thought... what if it at some point Lori did regret her decision? Maybe she had done research, contacted lawyers about what would happen if she went back to being Kimberly.. found out how much trouble she would be in for the identity theft and thought it wasn't worth it. Or maybe once she met...

    I think this is definitely possible. I am pretty sure that the group here hasn't had any luck finding other newspaper articles that reference BST - that certainly doesn't mean that they don't/didn't exist, especially maybe in a small, local newspaper. What that would mean, though, is that LEK...

    I think your previous post brought up some really great questions. One that has had me hung up for a while is how she knew BST's birth date. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem to make sense. - If we assume she got the idea for the BST identity walking around the cemetery, that...

    Although I think we all agree that it's hard to determine how 'difficult' she actually was with only one set of opinions, I think the above is a good question. Part of me wonders if maybe she wasn't trying to be difficult but had to be difficult. For example, we don't know every conversation she...

    Oh I absolutely agree with you that the answer to her real identity is not hidden cryptically in this very brief faux reference letter. I guess what I try to look for in some of these things is essentially pieces of what kind of person she was/background she came from. For example, was using The...

    Re: The Reference Letter I think the entire reference letter is just strange. Maybe some of you who were familiar with all of the 'how to change your identity' instructions in the 80s can chime in on this one, but why would she pick a famous hotel in Thailand to be her false letter of...

    Hi! I'm a fairly new poster, but I have several (possible) theories for what I think drove FLEK to the name change. 1. She really was just someone on the run from some type of threat, real or perceived, who studied how to change her identity, and left something bad/undesirable enough that...

    I have a few other questions that maybe some of the experts here could shed some light on... I'm still really stuck on the 'how' she obtained BST's birth certificate. So questions for some context: 1. If LEK was looking for an identity to steal through microfiche, would other states have had...

    Thanks for the response, those are all great points. With that many birth records, unless they are organized alphabetically rather than chronologically (which seems doubtful, as that would be time consuming for whoever handles record keeping..) it seems that the 'how' of getting the birth date...

    Hi! This is my first post, so bear with me if this has been hashed out already... I think this is sort of strange as well. Do you think it's possible if she requested it by mail that the request simply read something like "a copy of the birth certificate for BST born in Bakersfield, CA in 1969"...
