The GA ticket stuff is interesting, if he had a return fair and not a one-way as he is claiming, it is more evidence that the "going to start a new life" was just a scam.

10 days with a toilet bag and his undies in it!! wtf!

 

[vivienbee]

I still haven't stopped laughing.

Was that true back then? I ask because when I got mine (back then) we got our equivalents at 15 and 16, but now both are 16.

I grew up in a border town (Vic/NSW) and am just a few years younger than his daughter. At the time some people at my school would use relatives addresses over the border in NSW to get their Ps at 17 at year early. Vic was 18. I'm not sure what equivalents are?

Oh I meant our equivalent licenses, sort of, we get a permit (can drive with a licensed driver in the car) and then a license (freeeeeeedddooooooommmmmm).

Oh boy, he’s really putting on the frail old man now

I think it’s more that he can’t come up with lies quick enough.

 

[Passingthru]

His shoulder is tweaking out right now. The pressure is definitely getting to him.

When can kids drive in Australia?

Legislation changed in 1997 and the age is 16 yrs.
They claimed to have no money, living on the smell of an oily rag yet decide to buy a car for her just as she reaches 16 yrs of age

Yeah he’s scrambling! Can’t keep up with his own lies.

Hahaha, that was his brain ticking over to try to remember if he already agreed to the Lille arrest.
Answer: he did! So did his wife. That's why he left Australia after allegedly meeting DW on the ship. And she wrote to him his prison, right? That was Lille. Lol.

 

[Passingthru]

As an aside: I want a class in organization from the person who put all of these binders together.

 

[Behrnsy]

False imprisonment?????

 

[ikarka]

His brother? The one he hasn't spoken to in 30 years?
I feel like the whole court room might just flip tables and leave in a moment surely.

 

[Passingthru]

You weren’t supposed to ask for his cousins name! You broke the cardinal rule! Who could possibly remember their cousins’ name? That would be ludicrous!

 

[Behrnsy]

Can he just say yes or no. The tangents take forever

 

[Deleted member 249471]

You mean brother/cousin's name.

 

[Deleted member 249471]

Netherlands again. Something's up.
Just admit you're dutch.

We cant establish that is true hahaha!
