Well like Leona Helmsley said:

"We don't pay taxes, only the little people pay taxes". :wink:

But now, her poodles are well taken care of...

?No sign of them yet?

Fugitive Father Arrested in Baltimore; Dughter Is Safe
Fugitive father is arrested in Baltimore; daughter is safe

Clark Rockefeller, the mystery man who allegedly kidnapped his daughter, Reigh Storrow Mills Boss, on a Boston street, has been arrested in Baltimore, law enforcement authorities announced this evening.

Boston Police Commissioner Edward Davis said that Rockefeller was arrested at 3:25 p.m. today after a tip from a concerned citizen led the FBI to an apartment in the Mount Vernon section of Baltimore.

The 7-year-old girl was found unharmed and was happy to see the arresting officers, Davis said. Officials said her mother, Sandra Boss, was on her way to Baltimore to reunite with her child.

Investigators had learned that Rockefeller was keeping a boat in a nearby marina and used a ruse to lure him out of his apartment, Davis said. Rockefeller was told that his 26-foot catamaran was taking on water. He was arrested without incident by Baltimore police and FBI agents, Davis said, and the girl was found alone in the Ploy Street apartment shortly thereafter.

Davis said Rockefeller was in FBI custody in Baltimore, facing charges of felony custodial kidnapping, assault and battery, and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. Authorities continue to try to determine his real identity.

Boss collapsed with joy into Deputy Superintendent Tom Lee's arms when she learned her daughter had been found safely, Lee said.

"This is just a really wonderful feeling," said FBI Special Agent Noreen Gleason, who worked on the investigation.

Rockefeller, 48, allegedly kidnapped his daughter on Sunday afternoon from Marlborough Street in Boston's Back Bay section.

Police mounted a manhunt for Rockefeller, fielding tips that he was in places as diverse as Smyrna, Del.; Port Jefferson, N.Y.; and the Turks and Caicos Islands in the Caribbean. None of the sightings were confirmed. His ex-wife this week made an extraordinary public appeal for him to return their daughter.

The Globe reported today that Boss, who divorced Rockefeller in December, accused him of lying about being a member of the famed Rockefeller family and asked for sole custody of their daughter because she believed he was a fraud, according to two sources familiar with the case.

Police have said the alleged abduction appeared to be the result of Rockefeller's dissatisfaction with the divorce and custody settlement.

Rockefeller presented himself as a man who could be nothing other than a bona fide Rockefeller. But the Rockefeller family has said he is not one of their relatives. And police have said they were searching for any kind of documentation, including a Social Security number or birth certificate, that would give them an idea about who Rockefeller really is.

Davis thanked the FBI and a host of other law enforcement agencies for their help in the investigation.

Gleason, the FBI agent, said that investigators aren't clear what Rockefeller's plans were.

When the little girl was approached by agents in the apartment, Gleason said, "Her first words were -- she was very happy to see very nice people."

Boston Globe

- this "Mr Rockefeller" has no links to the famous US family,
- detectives believe the name "Rockefeller" to be an alias.

This will make a great tv show for "Inside Edition" or some other full disclosure crime show.
Apparently Mr Rockefeller had swapped boats. He went from a 70 something foot cat down to a 26 footer. This is a significant difference in salon space.

According to today's Boston Globe Clark's fingerprints match up with those of a California man wanted in connection with a decade old murder.

It's amazing how he managed to live so long in the USA without having any true ID...

They do not ask for IDs at the galas.

"What nonsense." said the well-coifed and garbed woman in the security line at MoMA when asked for her drivers license. "My driver is outside with the car."

Joe(they let her in.)Nation

Christopher Chichester aka Clark Rockerfeller??? who was sought in the disappearance of a wealthy young couple John and Linda Sohus in the 1980's in Califronia will meet with two LA detectives who consider him a person of interest.

I wonder when the movie is made who will play Clark?

Tom Hanks?

His last wife has a degree from Stanford and an MBA from Harvard.

Don't these two schools teach a course called
"Common Sense"?

The latest is that he came to the US as an exchange student from Germany. Married, got a green card, divorced.

A seasoned con artist.

He still refuses to talk to the Police.

Will he be deported?
