Mostly, I find it very interesting how people are up in arms about how many times Fernand is mentioned in the podcast and are consistently finding ways to absolve him. Yet the same amount of uproar is not extended to all the times Scientology, Hermes Far Eastern Shining, the pilot, the dentist, and Luke Glover have been mentioned. What's with that?
For me it just comes down to what is the most simplistic explanation, the police say nobody with that name came in or out, at this point there’s nothing to suggest that he has any other con artist scams happening and his ex wife says he hasn’t been to Australia (usually ex’s jump at the chance to badmouth former spouses). He could’ve been on a fake passport but that takes him out of Luxembourg for a lengthy period (from time ad was placed until Marion disappeared), one would assume you’d try to limit how many times you fly in and out of one country with false documents and he also had his patent thing happening in Luxembourg around the same time. There’s definitely doubt in my mind that he had anything to do with it. I wouldn’t go out of my way to vehemently defend him, but I am certainly not convinced by any means he had anything to do with it because someone impersonating him is an easier explanation for me personally.
I think Scientology and HFES have a bad rap already so people don’t jump to defend them.
LG has several people who have accused him of wrongdoing, not just the podcast.
The pilot hasn’t been named by the Podcast and I also thought the dentist was nameless too but I saw someone mention a name in this thread so I’m unsure on that now.
Just my personal reasonings.
