Did we ever really expect Joe Cafasso to be able to stay underground for long?
The killer on this score is he hasn't been underground at all, he's been right in front of our noses - just changed identities and names again.
This time? He's Robert Stormer or Robin Storm! That's right, according to CN at Carteret Con Artist, he's been writing at "No Quarter", and even published at "Common Dreams" with his fantasies wrapped in things he was actually involved in.
The psychology of it is rather mind-boggling, though when you get down to it. He is still selling himself as a humanitarian who helps out in disasters (like he was after Hurricane Katrina), but - this time there's a twist with a nautical flare....he's about nautical disasters, and is billing himself as a diver, and of course, a retired military guy, except this time it's NAVY.
That's right, I know - hard to believe when you'd have to have some knowledge in order to choose the right pictures, but that's where he comes up short, you see.
The picture he put up on a dating website is completely wrong.
Wrong mask, wrong outfit, and wrong period of time. Wrong face, wrong nose, wrong eyes. It's obvious that picture isn't him.
You see, if you examine what it is he's putting out there, and have the ability to fact check - it isn't all that difficult to see that he's a con man.
What I don't understand is how he's able to spin a web and draw people into it, considering all these factors. Supposedly these people are 'smart'. Well...at least by Cramer-type standards, they are, but in the real world it takes the ability to reason without a political template to back facts into.
And that's what this merry band is doing. They have a political template that they want to back stories into, so it doesn't bother them one way or another that they're involved with a known con artist and fraud like Joe Cafasso, even if he's parading around with a new name and identity, and embezzling money. Yeah, embezzling is a charge that's been thrown about in discussions about his recent circus sideshow.
The problem is, he's not able to change his face - so putting a picture of himself out there in scuba gear - is about all he can do now, because there are a number of people watching.
Yeah, Joe and Kathryn, people are watching.
Some people think that this Andrea Ello is in fact Kathryn Cramer, but - unless she dumped her kids and husband, I don't think that is possible.
But, in this wacky world we live in, I suppose anything is possible.
In the meantime, we'll continue poring over details and comparing notes.
It's the least we can do when there are allegations now that Andrea Ello is now missing, and that she'd recently discovered that Cafasso is a fraud.
That discovery could have led her into possible foul play; as I'm certain that Cafasso has done more terrible things in his life than just steal from people and threaten to kill them and hide their bodies where they can never be found - or has probably gone further than killing a woman's little lapdog (which I gather he actually did).
How Cramer could expose her children to this monster is beyond me, but it seems to me that she is lacking some very important survival skills such as common sense.
